Coli NBA heads, what's the main difference between Kerr & Mark Jackson's Warriors?

[jadillac]

@Malta @houston911 @mastermind other NBA heads, what difference do you think Kerr is making vs how much of it is just a natural progression of the players?

A couple years ago, the Warriors burst on the scene upsetting the Nuggets in the playoffs, then pushing the Spurs to 6 games in the 2nd rd. Then last season they lost in the 1st rd, but took the Clippers to 7 games and this was with Bogut being hurt in a couple games, if I recall. Otherwise they prob win that series too.

Now clearly, this year they're on another level offensively and are much better defensively as well. But does Kerr really deserve all the credit?

Coaching...

Not preaching Kerr is from the Phil and Pop pool where you let your stars do them!

 

[WhoShotCha]

Well for one thing, everyone is better and more healthy then they were when Jackson was there

x's and o's is the main reason. They just have a great offensive system that maximizes the offensive potential of this GS lineup.

Mark Jackson didnt play Golden State's starting line up together one minute last season.

They are running a different offense as well.

There is some natural progression but a lot of this is that Kerr is a better coach.

The defense is the difference tho

Warriors have more depth

Livingston, speights, barbosa

And curry and Klay are better

 

[ALonelyDad]

Playing draymond over Lee, bout healthy, everyone improved, Barnes over iggy, and running actual plays on court

It's pretty simple....

Curry-Thompson-Barnes-Green-Bogut logged 51 minutes last year as a unit.

TOTAL

That's on Mark though, Draymond was obviously a better defender than Lee, but he never gave him a start with their current lineup. Mark was rigid and old school when it came to how the Warriors played.

Yeah it was actually 51 minutes and not zero. But that's a horrible glowing stat that shows how bad Mark was.

Kerr actually listen to his players and assistance..

was Green really ready to start tho last year?

Harrison Barnes was still rising too, but didnt quite seem like he was ready until this year.
