You don't see the difference in ball movement and play execution from this years team to the previous. That has a lot to do with a change in coaching. They didn't just become the arguable best offense in the league out of nowhere

Oh I see the edit nvrmind

I misread your post.

You're right.

Yo, started off saying" Forgive me, but in no way shape of form am I trying to disrespect Steve Kerr, or question his ability to coach"

2 minutes later

"America, What the h3ll did Steve Kerr do to become the golden boy ? "

:snoop:For the slow ones on this thread @OG_status and @KingJudah :

The players themselves had effusive praise for Kerr's attentiveness the entire season and he obviously commanded respect from the vets in that locker room. Harrison Barnes clearly stated that Mark Jackson had been grossly misusing him his entire coaching tenure and that Kerr requested feedback from all of his players regarding their strengths and weaknesses in the preseason for the express purpose of maximizing their talents on the court. Mark Jackson did no such thing.:francis:

He took a team that had won only 47 and 51 games in consecutive regular seasons and choked away playoff series in both subsequent postseasons, increased their winning percentage by 19%, led them to the third best regular season record in league history, and overcome multiple 2-1 playoff series deficits.

He had the balls to start Barnes over Iggy (who hadn't been a bench player in a decade) for the first 85 games of the year without a peep, then had the self-awareness to make the requisite adjustments by switching them out and benching Bogut halfway through the NBA Finals, thereby directly impacting the momentum of the series and leading them to a championship.

That's called being a good coach. And this post is called "putting your remedial asses in your place". :ufdup:

Now eat these negs, appreciate these well-timed smileys, shut the fukk up, and keep it moving.

OG status asks legit questions yall nikkas ducking responses with cornball emojis

Golden State was much better this year than they were last year. One of the best single seasons of all time- it's safe to say Kerr's a better coach than Mark Jackson. Defensively alone, they improved massively.
