Stevens coached the worst 1st seed in at least a decade
Hmmm... not sure what point you're trying to make here... seems like that would be a nod to the coaching no?

Kerr took a middling team that got eliminated in the first round by a Clippers squad dealing with unprecedented distractions to the best regular season ever
Weren't they like 40-2 without him last year? Obviously he put in a great system, but they're rolling out 4 HOFers in their prime... not sure x's and o's have much to do with it at this point.

I don't know what he means, but Warriors are smaller than Celtics. They can out muscle GS pretty easily.

He barely held on to the 1st seed in one of the worst Eastern Conferences ever

No, he absolutely does not get credit for that especially when people can't stop telling me how great a coach he is

If Rondo stayed healthy, the Bulls would have beaten them in the 1st round but, yeah, tell me more about how great Stevens is

They had 3 future HoFers under Mark Jackson but weren't anywhere close to what they're doing now

He's means the scheme is more sophisticated not that the Celtics have a better team. Lue needs to choose his words more carefully because this is how shyt gets twisted.
I can only speak for myself, but I don't see how he thinks that when the Warriors have more advanced actions (e.g. the Warriors' matryoshka doll screen split actions are more intricate than the one-man run off/bump PnR actions the Celtics use), and more movement off the ball. Even without the talent the Warriors have, their offensive system would still be the best in the league. It's basically the best of both the Triangle and SA's motion offense.
