#GoldenStateWarriors #Warriors #StephCurry
Kylen I’m in 100% agreement about Kerr. I been down on Kerr ever since he gave all that playing time to Ty Jerome and Anthony Lamb. That is inexcusable. He should have never been given another 2 years coaching. Kerr has is inprint all over the Warriors roster, which is too small
He singlehandedly setback the development of Kuminga and Moody...for guys that are no longer in the league. Great move. He did it last year too until Kuminga AND Moody came out publicly. Kerr is great when you have all time veteran players. So is like 10% of the population.
Joe Lacob created the James Wiseman debacle. The staff wanted Tyrese Halliburton
kerr lost 12-15 games last season by himself
1000% Correct...if not more than that
Maybe 3-5
Dray helped don’t leave the SUPERSTAR 4 TIME CHAMPION 🤦
moses moody is not a 3rd string optionnnnn thank youuu he either starts or get big runnn meaning 20+ min minimum every game
Yes,he is also to blame for Warriors last season,his rotations sucks!
💯
He doesn’t hold everyone accountable equally.
Kerr’s 3 guard lineup is obsolete. Doesn’t work in international tournaments. It’s a defensive liability and it cost the USA team last year’s FIBA. 😄😄😄
team si old. It's going to be greatgames in the Olympics
@@ginjjiigok364 And yet, the oldest one of them all is carrying them to wins.
💯
not just 3 guards but two really short guards in Curry and CP3. lmaoo
It doesn't work on the NBA either
Charlie in his feelings because Podz is a common find vs. a Kuminga 😂 Kylen was right brother, I’m sorry. JK is that much better.
warrior fans saw this coming, but he is taking it to a new level of incompitence ... bad omen for 24-25
As a W fan Kerr problem is over thinking things the guy is obsessed with rotation tinker tinker until it breaks down. He got so many similar players so he can play his small ball his concept is if I remove one replace with the same.
Kaylen is right I said it the year 2021-22 he was doing his yank rotation with Beli and Porter 3/4 of the season it wasnt until he stopped and decided to stop that they took off.
He should never been given an extension is he great NO, good yes, any other team he would have been gone.
This roster they dont even need Curry, my big worry he use and depend on Curry by season start he be burn up within the first 20 games.
Curry should play no more than 10 minute come off bench pop pop back to bench.
I agree, those kids can ball without Curry. The thing is they don't get a chance to develop their chemistry as young guys. Yet, Curry and group were given a chance to develop through their mistakes
@@Miriaye My comment is and was in regards to the O team and not Warriors youth.
If your comment is with W, then I ask you who fault is it. ive heard comments it isnt Kerr or a coach job for me anyone who makes that type of call has never play sports or have their head up their butts.
A coach at any level even grammar school is to develope and put players in a position to help and Kerr has failed in that area. Maybe that is how it is today with teams that has Gleague but any player who has a Contract not two way must stay with the team to scrimage and play to know and find out.
I understand the win now thinking and every team think the same but you got to find moments in a game even one minute. If not then you got what is happening now.
Spoelstra should coach the US team and not Kerr. Kerr is totally empty coconut shell. He hasn't changed for the better but he's getting dumber in his decisions and plays. He doesn't even know how to make right plays.
But Kylen right. We could have some good bigs, but Kerr wont’f play them
We have been complaining about Steve Kerr for YEARS! He is a fraud of a coach he has doesn’t get it. 4 titles thanks to Steph not Steve
Hell, no! Talent and assistant coaches won the 4 titles. When the top-rated assistant coaches left, it became obvious he wasn't really a good coach.
I don't get his fetish for old small lineups. 😂
kerr is thinking too old. play lebron at the 2 and tatum at the 3. get talll and quicker
It should be Embrid, Davis, James, Tatum and Halliburter. Being a W fan send him out to shoot pop pop back to bench I want him save for season.
kerr is cooked. i mean i could say worse things about him. but i won’t.
If the players make their shots and they win, the victory is all because of the players. When the players miss their shots and they almost lose, you blame the coach? Are people really this slow?
Yes, they are.
U can’t fire the players duh
Steve Kerr its getting exposed outside of San Francisco, as bad as a coach that he is and his crazy rotation, prefences of the players he like more, gut instinct, analitics, small ball, no in game adjustments, among others. He is doing the same things he does in the bay area and san Francisco, doing now in the US team. He is incredible overrrated as a coach.
Kerr been taking well deserved heat for the last two years. Abysmal performance as coach of warriors with the most expensive roster in nba history. Last with USA in fiba. Kerr is an average or above average coach at best KYLEN nailed it here guy was handed a championship ready team an all time great super team with KD in it. A monkey in a suit could have done his job. I wish if only once to see Curry get coached by an elite coach for once.
Kylen is spot on Kerr is overrated af
Alch said it, Steve is a moderator, not a motivator. Moderating i don’t think should command such high praise.
A center like bogut , rim protection, excellent scren setter, and very good passer ,, go and find one , even zaza , was a good playmaker , someone you can play some minutes in the center position ,, kerr is stucked with the small ball like he still have livingston , iggy , prime klay, draymond along steph , tall dudes with guard skills and long wingspan, he tried to do the same with podz, CP and steph, and older and post injured versions of klay and draymond ..it is crazy stubborn
Moody over Anderson! And over Wiggs if he doesn't get it goin'! (Play aggressively and get out of his mental funk).
Thank you @kylen for keeping it real when it comes to how Kerr has coached these last 3 years. He’s been atrocious especially when it comes to developing Moody n JK.
Podz should not start ahead of Melton. Fans are imagining a superstar ceiling for Podz that’s not realistic. The Warriors need a defensive guard to pair with Steph. Particularly with no rim protection.
Play Bron at 3 Durant 2 Steph at 1 Embid at 5 and AD at 4
Team Kuminga 💪🏿. Go Africa, go the Congo. People should appreciate African talent, most of these guys are starting to play in their early teens. They are not American kids who start hooping in their garages or living rooms with hoops and a ball when they are 2 years, 3 years.
I always find the point of you can't teach Bball IQ very odd. Draymond is very limited player, his IQ has come from him learning to maximise what he does best which is set screens, play defense and pass and occasionally shoot it. When Draymond has the ball at the top of the key, you know what he is trying to do, it's either swing pass, dribble hand-off, naked handoff, pocket pass if the screen is set and if there's no movement and they are gaping him he takes the shot. BP is yet to simplify his game to that extent because he has more of a "package" but you would notice him when there's no movement for a pass because he doesn't have the 1 on 1 ability or first step he ball pounds for 8 seconds but for the most part because he doesn't have that then it limits when you are trying to do on offense and simplifies what you can get really great at very quickly. Now comes in JK who we say has all the potential, he does have the turn around jumper, he has the quick first step, he has the finishing at the rim, he has that 1 on 1 package if needed, he has that elite strength and power to bully to the rim, he plays above the rim, he has infinite options unlike some of his team mates where what they are trying to do is largely dictated by what they can do. Which is why a lot of the times last season JK got the ball towards the end of the shot clock when they didn't get the shot they wanted because he can draw a foul or force his way to the rim. The reason JK excelled so much IMO is cause he simplified what he needs to do which is why he lived in the paint cause no one on the warriors did that
kerr is the reason he dint even play trayce until the second half the season and then putting jk on the bench and putting klay back starting lineup and not willing to change his system
Steph is my favorite player but i got to be honest. This is the wromg time to get on a cold streak shooting. Don't know what it is. Its a shorter line and he should be smashing them 3's like of it was a free throw. He's also missing free throws, which is oddd and not a good sign. And think ppl should get off Kerr's back because tjese players aint helpimg by makimg shots. Lpol at Steph. I hope he gets it back for the real games.
kerr💩 was given Mark Jackson's team! Mark's players made that Dynasty, not kerr💩! Now it's over and the FACT that kerr💩 has NO clue what he's doing is evident!!!👀
Curry is getting old right in front of us. He's slowly losing his skills and consistency which happens to older players.
Podz definitely should not start. Kerr is infactuated with him cause of his effort and over achieving for his height....kinda reminds Kerr of himself in Podz. Melton should start....better defensively and offensively. Lacob said Podz will be future all star ....big reach. I think he said that for 2 possible reasons. 1. To convince Jazz hes better than be really is. 2. If u trade Kuminga then u can sell the fanbase that u kept the better player.....so they are over embellishing Podz.
You can teach basketball but u can't teach talent. U can't get Podz everywhere in the league, u can only get one JK from Congo. This IQ narrative is a non-starter for me. Wiggins is not all that but was our 2nd best in 2022 thanks to Iggy. Only way Pod stay is for Books.
Team Kuminga 💪🏿. Go Africa, go the Congo. People should appreciate African talent, most of these guys are starting to play in their early teens. They are not American kids who start hooping in their garages or living rooms with hoops and a ball when they are 2 years, 3 years.
Yes, because of his rotations and he is stubborn.
If Kerr is the coach, the players are better playing without him. Perhaps the results would be better.
Kylen Mills knows ball.
Kerry’s biggest problem, lack of faith and trust in younger players. He relies on players like Wiggins when their play is clearly inferior to younger players like JK and even Moody.. He has to give longer leashes to all 4 younger guys. Rely on them more. He has to play the largest lineups he can. Stop falling in love with the Anthony Lambs of the NBA. LAMB received valuable minutes that JK and Moody needed!
We're trying to find someone to blame?
Im convinced Embiid was promised a starting role and they dont want to fracture his relationship. Embiid went thru a process of getting US citizenship and he would not have done that if he didnt know he would be accepted on team and also have a big role. The league looks at Embiid as better than AD overall and Kerr caters to that hierarchy. Embiid shouldnt even be on thr team frfr . The starting lineup of team USA is too old to win between Curry, Lebron, and Embiid moves like he is 65. Durant who is also OLD may be there saving grace. He is the best offensive player Kerr will start. Kerr will start ..Jrue, Curry, Durant, Embiid, and Lebron.
If Coach Kerr wanted to diffuse criticism, he could show up to games wearing his 4 gold Warriors rings, and his 5 gold Bulls rings.
Yeah I like a healthy Robert Williams
Your presence is a positive? How? Who cares who u work for wtaf
I’ve been saying this after every exhibition game and all last season. Kerr is not a good head coach. Period. Without Steph he is awful and with this Olympic team he looks lost with the lineups and he looks lost in trying to inspire those dudes. He’s mismanaged the young warriors like Moody and Kuminga, treated Klay like a has been, has done a horrible job with big men and hasn’t evolved to this era.
If someone takes an honest look at kerr's era as a coach it's Obvious that he was an Opportunist! he was Given Mark Jackson's team and ONLY maintained it! As soon as their was a break in the chain that Mark built (Klay got hurt) it ALL fell apart until Klay came back! Now that the core can't work the Magic that Coach Jackson instilled in them, kerr has NO IDEA WHAT TO DO!!! The Players made that Dynasty Not that Bum-ass coach; he's a JOKE! I hope they don't even medal to prove that FACT!
Kerr has done a terrible job the last 2 seasons, not bashing being honest. He’s an average coach at best. His decision making is very bad, player rotations is bad. He needs to change these aspects, to improve. W’s need a new coach, Kerr’s time as coach really up.
He should be the blame 3 guard line up
Anti Curry happens the second u watch his on court demeanor. It’s disrespectful af
All these idiots in comments thinking Kerr is alone in his decisions, like it’s not all agreeed upon between his coaches. And preseason is used for experience and testing . It’s not like Kerr warriors went from 16th in offense to #1 in recording breaking
Y’all a win is a win stop over Reacting
Millionaires and a billionaire players have to think of self preservation. They aren’t going to play 100/100 and risk a career injury. The stakes aren’t high enough. Other countries are showing the skill sets in modern basketball are narrow and winning becomes dependent on coaching, systems and player buy in. What you have is mostly aging injury vulnerable American superstars playing for pride and little else. A bunch of Alpha Wolves trying to play in a Kerr system. Most likely win the Gold but it ain’t gonna be a cakewalk.
overrated
No he’s not just lucky to have good rosters before
Curry been the face the last 10 years
Robert Williams has an durability issues. Lauri the same. Next ..
Kuminga is cool but he’s not that guy and Podz is ok but pretty much hit his peak… the both of them are outrageously overrated and I’m sick of hearing about them… I’d give both up for Lauri but that wouldn’t be smart money …
They are both nowhere near their peek. They could both be all stars within 2-3 years
Kerr not good with x and O plus he can’t coach players with egos
splash bros are gone and so is small ball...
Nobody likes Steph’s over celebrations constantly taunting and acting like a clown that’s why he’s NOT the face of this league.
This Kerr slander is hilarious! What young guy has he not developed that became good somewhere else? Curry, Thompson, Green, Looney, Poole, Pods, TJD, and resurrected McGee, Livingston, and Porter. Kerr pushed all the right buttons for the 22 championship and beat a more talented Boston Celtic team. I think ESPN gave Warriors a 14% to win 22 finals😂
swap coaches with Sacramento; Kerr tires out his first 5 so much, they are spent by the start of the 4th quarter
The talent around the world has caught up, international players are not dumb anymore, don’t blame Kerr, USA are not the Juggernaut anymore.. sheesshhhh!
Why this podcast host talking about lebron as the chosen one, annoying guy
OH THE BLAMING BEGINS TO SAVE LJ LET DOWN FACE BLAME IT ON ALL EXCEPT LJ. PEOPLE ARE TOO DUMB THESE DAYS IT AINT STEVE KERR WHO LET GSW DOWN IT WAS THE PLAYERS THAT WAS GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITIES MEANING MINUTES DIDNT DECIDE TO PERFORM HAVE SOME BRAIN TO IT
He is a good coach but seems like He is stucked in his old ways.
Kerr is a full coach,specially with the warriors,is nothing positive in warriors roster,you have to make the team better this year,warriors need zize like Markkanen,fuck small tean no more thats bo shit,make a trade and make the warriors better specially in the west.
Kerr is a lousy coach who rode coattails to success. Without a team loaded with HOFers he always struggles. During Olympic play he routinely fails to properly manage games, rotations and the team's focus. I was disappointed that the team gave him an extension.
Aren't these two married?
I differ with Kylen's views of Podz that a lot of players in the league can do what he does and he can JUST be a rotational player. I see a mini Draymond (without antics) in Podz (mentally and IQ wise). Dray is a defensive specialist and I think Podz will be a shooting specialist. Dropping a very hot take here, I believe Podz will be one of the top 10 3pt shooters of all time ... He averaged 43% from 3 in college ... His rookie season he averaged 38.5% which is great ... His shooting form is great, his stepback is even lethal ... He shot like 54% from 3 on stepbacks last season ... His ceiling is definitely an All-star and he'll develop faster than Kuminga I believe !!
Of course he'll develop faster than JK. JK is an athletic freak of nature. He can truly just out jump, out muscle, out run, and blow by a lot of players and there's nothing wrong with that. Also it's never mentioned that he's a good FT shooter in his 3rd year and has a reliable midrange shot. The upside is simply higher than podz. Podz has an athletic and size gap that he has to make up for so I'm not surprised he's more developed skill wise. Also keep in mind that kerr has been a lot more lenient with podz. He's also not Draymond. Remember that Draymond is 6'6 with a 7ft wing span and a defensive IQ that podz doesn't have. He can be an elite glue guy but we have to stop acting like he's going to be an allstar rather than one of those highly productive role players.
@@calmdownbruh8518the guy is delusional, he's predicting he'll be another Bird?! maybe sue bird...
This guy needs glasses talking about he see a mini Draymond in Podz. He needs double bifocals. Cause he's not looking at the right thing. Thinking that Podz is an All Star. Come on, who in the West? 1 or 2 guards, he is better than😅😅😅
@@Qjags2 it'll be Luka and Podz in next 5 years
@@sumedhtayade4708 Your profession must be a comedian, cause that's Funny 😅😂🤣🤣🤣😂
Kerr is not to blame at all. The truth is, the world has caught up and caught on. It's not about Kerrs rotations or lineups, it's about the world's ability to mimic now that the competition, talent and discipline is unquestionably better. Kerr can only do so much. How is it his fault the team fouls too much? How is it his fault they turn the ball over? Come on now.
Starting 5 is Bam adebayo Anthony Davis LeBron Jason Tatum and Anthony Edward
I’m not convinced Kerr has full control over who plays and how much they play. Everyone can see the awkward fit with Embid in that starting lineup. I’m sure Kerr sees it. Are there politics involved? I’m sure. Could they players show more hustle/a greater sense of urgency? I think so, and that’s not on Kerr.
Embiied was most likely promised a starting role due to the fact that he went thru the process of getting US citizenship
Man the Warriors should've moved on from Kerr...OVERRATED COACH!!
That’s exactly what I been saying podz remind me of Ginobili
Trade kuminga and keep Podz. Trace jackson-Davis can play at kuminga position
Will
Come on, the rest of the nation is just seeing Steve Kerr as to his coaching decisions that the Warrior fans have been seeing for some years! Nothing new here! Not likely that Warriors will get rid of him, but also not likely that Warriors will change their losing ways. Wake up Warriors ownership, management, etc. You are going nowhere with Coach Kerr at the coaching position.
The world is finally seeing how overrated Kerr is. Kerr has never coached a team that had less than three superstars/HOFers. A good/great coach is someone who does more with less (talent, resources). The Warriors have been atrocious in seasons when injuries kept the Warriors stars off the floor.
when you look at the Dub rooster, it looks terrible - almost scrub-like.
podz was just a rookie but has the dog in him and that cant be taught. it took jordan 5 years to be him...podz could be like a jalen brunson....
I love listening to Babe, but in this episode, it sounds like she's broadcasting from inside a bathroom. That echoing noise on her end of the conversation is mildly annoying.
