Things luke walton be doin on the bench while "coaching"

[Mirin4rmfar]

Credit goes to Steve Kerr, the pieces were there already but Mark was afraid to play Green and Barnes.

Kerr deserves credit for the rotations and bringing in the right assistant coaches...but everything else .

You can't give Kerr that much credit when Curry goes and takes pull up 3s waay behind the line and can make it. He's on Mike Brown with the Cavs and Spo with the Heat level until proven otherwise.

Kerr deserves all the credit in the world for going with an unconventional lineup, you can argue that he might have started Lee over Draymond had Lee been healthy but when you look at how they play their defensive makeup is a lot like the Bulls he played for. The do-it-all PF that can guard multiple positions, the two perimeter defenders and then the 1 defensive big.

A coach like Thibs would have come in and Lee & Iggy would still be starting.

Because the credit that Walton 'deserves' is different to the coach who designed this system, managed the specific lineups and put everything into place for this squad to grow and win a title. Not to mention Walton has already mentioned he speaks to Kerr everyday, so it isn't like he's not having any input whatsoever. In saying all that, the Warriors' record this season should be under Walton's name - he at the very least deserves that.

gentry designed the offense and another coach(thib's old assistant) designed the defense.

fukk outta here trying to credit the head coach with everything when it's when well known that he had some of the best assistants in the league that helped him immensely, but then act like walton is doing nothin and im sure the assistants are helping walton the same way they did kerr.

Actually no they didn't - not solely anyway.

Nah, YOU GET THE fukk OUTTA HERE.

Nobody is acting like his assistants didn't help him 'immensely' - the point is Draymond, Curry, Barnes and Bogut have all stated how much of a role Kerr's had in putting everything into place for this team to succeed (as individuals and as a squad).

but then act like walton is doing nothin and im sure the assistants are helping walton the same way they did kerr.

Show me where I'm acting like "Walton is doing nothin", else stop throwing together a straw man argument.

Very well...I'll change my opinion of Kerr once he faces a good coach in a playoff series. I do agree that Thibs is too stubborn and I highly doubt Doc would have GS looking this sharp after Mark Jackson.

Kerr pretty much re-did what he intended in PHX...Pringles system with D. Can't knock the hustle.

curry also thought jackson was a great coach. players will always credit their coaches when they're winning, that means fukk all. im not saying kerr did nothing last year or saying he didn't coach the team to a title.

im saying he, in the pecking order of credit for this season, is very low. i don't care if he calls walton every day, if he's not there he's not there. that's like crediting pagano for what arians did back when in 2012. the coach that is there and coaching is the one that deserves the credit for the team's success/

Thibs would bench Lee the moment he fukked up a defensive assignment, which would be the first game.


Not to mention Thibs told the Bulls office that he wanted them to draft Draymond late in the first round - they picked Marquis Teague instead.

Curry's gone into detail (as have most of the Warriors stars), on how he put everything into place (giving players more offensive responsibility, catering more to their skillsets, implementing more ball movement and player movement, using triangle offense principles, using lineups with players who can defend multiple positions etc etc). Curry nor any other Warriors player said shyt about the specifics of Jackson's coaching.

Didn't I just tell you that the Warriors record this season should be under Walton's name?

The point is this, yes Walton does deserve credit, but it's not like he's doing anything different to what Kerr did last season. The system is still the same and the players' roles are still the same (barring the slight changes in the personnel of the second unit).

So by yall logic Phil Jackson on that 95 bulls team wasn't doing shyt. And they're more talented

He probably would've ended up doing what he did to Booz his last year, start him but only play him 24 mpg, none in the clutch.

If he had Draymond - Lee would've been lucky to get 10 minutes a game.
