Uh the warriors were already pretty stacked when kerr took over for Jackson. Kerr is good but stevens seriously is next level.

You think about what he's done with Boston, a bottom dweller before he got there. Kerr doesn't turn that around like brad did, especially with the void of superstars on his team.
lol
"pretty stacked"
they went from a 2nd round ceiling to nba champions with kerr
FOH
he implemented an offense that got the most out of his players and utilized their skillset better than what mark jackson could do
they got lucky with draymond turning out to be what he is...
how many mvps did curry get before kerr?
was their defense elite before kerr?
give that nikka his credit
you arent winning a championship without talent but no one had the warriors winning 67 games the year he came.

I said Kerr is good. And yeah the warriors were a good playoff team. They had way more talent than what Stevens has ever had to work with. Curry/klay/draymond alone is better than anything Boston has. Put Stevens on the warriors and they still win the ship, put Kerr on Boston and I don't see the improvement Stevens was able to do. I'm not even a celtics fan but I recognize Stevens is the truth.

They basically split every time they play even with the big talent gap between the two teams. Stevens can coach his ass off.

I agree about Brad but Kerr wasn't put in the same situation so we can't say he wouldn't excel.

View media item 12439The fact that brad stevens isn't even in the conversation, but Erik spoelstra makes it in is despicable.

We talking about a coach that has really maximized this team's potential beyond people's expectations.

We end up getting the #1 seed in the Eastern conference, we've made all the way to the Eastern conference, & gave cle their first lost in the playoffs without our star player.

There's no reason why this man hasn't been in the conversation when the team has improved every year under his tutelage.:hhh:

Exactly.

If Spoelstra's in the COY conversation, then so should Brad.

I give Pop his props but that's where it stops.

Coach only as good as the players stop overrating them.

Good game by that entire squad.
