Kerr's won more games over a three-season span than any coach in history + holds the regular season wins record, holds the postseason wins record=*, and has two championships, but he "sucks"...

LUKE WALTON AND MIKE BROWN
HAD BETTER RECORDS THAN KERR
WITH THIS SAME TEAM.

FUNNY HOW YOURE GIVING KERR THEIR WINS.

Running Kerr's system.

Remind me, how's Luke Walton doing in LA? What was Mike Brown's reputation before he went to the Warriors?

 

[MJ Truth]

He took Mark Jackson's team and elevated them into what they are now, but now he's overrated?

Would Mark Jackson not have elevated them?

I mean, Luke Walton and Mike Brown took the same squad and elevated it about what Kerr was doing also.

LUKE WALTON STILL GOT THE BEST WINNING PERCENTAGE IN WARRIORS FRANCHISE HISTORY

When are you gonna drop these threads:

Pat Riley sucks

Greg Popovich sucks

Red Auerbach sucks

Phil Jackson sucks

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

Looney, Varejao, McGee, Clark etc all the role players have said similar shyt about Kerr.

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

Kerr had Nick Young and Omri Casspi filling in for Durant tonight - Casspi ended up having a career-high in blocks, Young had a career-high= in steals, and he was one assist away from equalling his career-high too.



But Kerr sucks tho.

What the hell does that have to do with Kerr? Everybody knew the Warriors made the right moves in the offseason by bringing in two experienced role players like that. The FO gets credit for that not Kerr. If he had any fukking clue he'd exploit Curry/Durant pick and roll a lot more. Even Mike Brown knew how to do that and nobody ever confused him with being a Hall Of Fame coach

Omri Casspi flooded with emotions after best game with Warriors: 'I'm loving it'

The veteran forward was moments removed from his most extended playing time as a member of the Warriors, 20 minutes in a 125-101 win over the Timberwolves on Wednesday night.

Casspi, 29, is a native of Israel who has been on six different NBA rosters, Sacramento to the west, Houston and New Orleans to the south, Cleveland to the east and Minnesota to the west. Now that he's member of the Warriors, well, he seems downright grateful to be here and particularly appreciative to have Steve Kerr has his head coach.

Asked what it means to have a coach who spent his 15-year NBA career as a reserve and can share that kinship, Casspi needed a moment.

"Wow. I can't even put it into words," he said. "It's the first time . . . he really knows how to get to me, coaching into my heart.

"As a player that comes into a team that obviously won championships, you know what you're getting into, it's really important for me as an individual that you have that relationship with your coach. And I feel like he really got to my heart. He keeps me going. He's a very special human being . . . I'm enjoying this very much."

That much was apparent Wednesday. He had submitted a fine line: 13 points, three rebounds, three blocks, two steals and one assist. He had played a total of 65 minutes over the first 11 games, and he was savoring the opportunity.

"I feel like it's first time in my career, not to take anything from the different teams I've played with in the past," he said, "but I feel like the way we play, our offense, our defense as well . . . I feel like I can play basketball and not think too much. Just play the game."

For Casspi, that means moving without the ball and making slick passes on offense, while sneaking in and being a disruptive force on defense. He was plus-9 because he was effective at both ends.

So effective was Casspi that as he stood at the line to shoot free throws in the fourth quarter, as the Warriors were closing out the victory, he received "MVP" chants from the Oracle Arena crowd.

It's enough to leave his coach beaming.

"On a night like this, it allows guys like Omri and Nick (Young) to step in there and get good minutes," Kerr said. "It's good for the team, it's good for morale, it's good for individual development."

There is that kinship thing. Kerr is a big believer in communicating with all of his players, especially those who don't have established roles and regular playing time. That was him 20 years ago, and he seems to excel at having a feel for backup players.

So Casspi, playing behind a championship team with established stars for the first time, is positively euphoric.

"I'm able to cut and do the stuff that role players should do," he said. "I'm enjoying it, I'm loving it and I want to keep doing it. And keep going and play hard and do what I need to do."

What the hell does that have to do with Kerr?

See above.

Look at how he's got guys at the bottom of the rotation playing their best basketball of their careers, and contributing on both ends of the floor.

If he had any fukking clue he'd exploit Curry/Durant pick and roll a lot more. Even Mike Brown knew how to do that and nobody ever confused him with being a Hall Of Fame coach

Kerr's 10 steps ahead of you -

“The thing for me, philosophically, we could do Steph-KD pick-and-rolls all season long and get open shots, and I understand that. But that’s, think about our team — if we were built like Cleveland, and we had Kyle Korver and [Channing] Frye and [Kevin] Love, that makes perfect sense. Now you got the floor spaced and you just have three-point shooters everywhere. But we have playmakers everywhere — Draymond Green, Shaun Livingston, Andre Iguodala. I want those guys making plays. I want them with the ball in their hands."

“I learned this with Phil Jackson and the triangle. When everyone is involved, touching the ball and cutting and screening, there’s a magic that happens, there’s something special where guys feel empowered, their defence gets better because they’re involved. And so I think, what’s important for me as a coach is to play the style we do.”

That's why role players like Casspi and Young end up having career-nights on defense because of the equal-opportunity system that Kerr's installed.

Kerr's already mentioned that they increase the PnR action between Curry and Durant more in the playoffs, but it's important to utilize the talents of the entire team throughout the regular season to prepare them for the playoffs.

@Dame Dash's Motor Oil

Look at their defense last season -

#2 in defensive rating - only marginally behind SA (all the while playing at the 4th-fastest pace, typically slow-paced teams are the best defensive teams)
#1 in opponent FG%
#1 in opponent 3-pt%
#1 in rim protection
#1 in blocks
#1 in steals
#1 in deflections
#2 in contested shots

You think it's just a coincidence, that one of the greatest and most talented offensive teams of all time, still managed to outhustle and fight more on the defensive end than arguably any other team as if they were underdogs?

I'll believe it when I see it. So far there is no track record of Kerr increasing the frequency of that play when it matters, because he missed almost all of the 2017 playoffs. He could have given instructions to Mike Brown though (who used that play correctly). We'll see this year.

As far as him giving the role players confidence by putting the ball into their hands, my opinion is that it's definetly overrated. Stars are the key to winning in the playoffs, he can give the role players all the touches in the world, McCaw and Zaza can play out of their minds, but if Steph and KD don't ball the fukk out like they did, the Cavs repeat. Simple as that. Not to mention Andre Iguodala and Shaun Livingston are simply better basketball players than Kyle Korver and Iman Shumpert. Stats prove that. So is it really Kerr's system that is the reason for Warrior bench > Cav bench?

I don't know if you watch soccer, but Kerr definetly reminds me of Pep Guardiola when he used to coach Barcelona. An average coach at the helm of a OP as fukk team.
