Wish Curry was more of a vocal leader sometimes.

If this is what kerr believes is to be our best 2 way line up, I'm starting question his basketball acumen.

Someone needs to check on him. This is not a normal conclusion.

Maybe they are showcasing cp3 and jk for a trade. Showing they are starters has much more valuable than if they are bench players.

what a segue, and what a **** quote at the end

Moody is shooting 33% on wide open threes, this team needs shooting but he is not even providing that. If he shoots 40% he will be find mins.

I am not sure a roster which isn’t even at .500 at this stage in the season can be considered strong. If the roster is strong then this rather implies Kerr isn’t employing same correctly.

CP3 and Klay will be in the hall of fame when they retire because of their peaks which are not necessarily at this stage in their respective careers. Sure if Klay can play at less than his peak but as he did in the 2022 play-offs he should start ahead of many including Moody.

Is Kerr being given a "pass" on his poor leadership, having a marginal (at best) staff, and his disdain for embracing athleticism and size?

fire him.

This is unbelievable. He has to be losing games on purpose.

superunknown · Post #310 » by **superunknown** » Fri Jan 5, 2024 5:42 am

he's become an impostor. this is not an NBA coach.

Onus · Post #311 » by **Onus** » Fri Jan 5, 2024 5:47 am

It’s wild that Kerr won 4 titles. He doesn’t even know who his best players are. He doesn’t know who provides defense. It’s just wild that he can be so clueless

Onus · Post #312 » by **Onus** » Fri Jan 5, 2024 5:50 am

I think mdj has to remove the vet options if he’s not going to talk to Kerr about who his best players are. Obviously Kerr has no clue.

Onus · Post #313 » by **Onus** » Fri Jan 5, 2024 6:02 am

If I’m mdj I’m not trading any future firsts unless Kerr quits or he trades Klay.

Rank our best players if you don't mind. I'm curious to see from your point of view l.

Kerr needs to be fired tonight. Could take a guy off street and they would have not lost that game.

Kuminga and Wiggins are the only two ++ athletes the Warriors have and Wiggins isn't exactly known for being aggressive.

Tbh it’s going to change game to game based on matchups. But I’m closing with curry/podz/wiggins and then filling whatever needs around them. They provide 2 way play with swarming help defense.

Curry, Podziemski, Thompson, Wiggins, Looney is -58 per 36
Curry, CP3, Thompson, Wiggins, Saric is -26 per 36
Curry, CP3, Thompson, JK, Looney is +28 per 36

just saying we have players who can win games.

Not sure where youre getting these numbers but I see Curry, CP3, Thompson, Wiggins, Looney with the slight advantage over your last lineup

So what’s your point? We actually don’t have the players who can win games.

The glaring issue on this team is not having a second option, a role that Klay once provided and now cannot fulfill. Wiggins was never and will never be a 2nd option. We traded away our second option for CP3 for better or for worse and didn’t fill this hole.

Ideally Klay is packaged with JK + 1st(s) for a true second option to help Curry. Otherwise this team is going nowhere but maybe a play in appearance.

FIRE STEVE KERR

Romulus · Post #320 » by **Romulus** » Fri Jan 5, 2024 7:27 am

OK, I started this thread. Should I get an award? This is the worst coach in the NBA.

Have we ever seen a coach go away from what is working like this guy?

Just a few obvious points.

JK is having a very good game. Very good. And he doesn't play in the last 18 minutes? Why?
Podz was having a very good game and was part of the group that helped build the lead. He was removed and never returned, either. Why?

Late in the game, you just need to get some stops. That's all you need. Blowing everyone's mind, Kerr has Saric playing the 5? He has a group that is one of the worst defensive groups he could put out there. Why?

At the end, Curry commits a terrible turnover and yes that's on him. But give Denver credit for doubling him and taking the ball out of his hands. Steve Kerr never takes the ball out of the best player's hands for the other team. Never. In fact, he let's Jokic go one on one against Saric down on the blocks for an easy 3 foot shot to tie the game. That's terrible coaching.

How many games is Kerr going to just give away? How many? If I'm the FO, I'm absolutely sick because this is a good roster and to be below .500 is an absolute crime.

The Lakers are soon to fire their coach. They'll get someone new. Again. They'll shake things up and make some moves.

The Warriors will do nothing.

Steve Kerr shouldn't be allowed to coach another game. He's that bad.

Moody getting another DNP breaks my heart, too. He's one of their better defensive players, something Kerr cares nothing about.

The roster isn't perfect but it deserves a coach who'll play the right players at the right time. What we're seeing now is a coach incapable of doing what's best for the team. I don't pretend to understand his motives any more. All I know? He's a disaster.
