Steve Kerr is out with an undeclosed illness but it is though to
be related to his back. Steve was reported to be in such pain
that he couldn't stand up. He will be out for the series with Portland and
he may not be back for the rest of the playoff. Mike Brown is running the team.
Mike Brown is an idiot but even with him coaching they are still the favorites. It does make things interesting that if a series gets close with the Warriors there's always a chance Brown could cost them the series with bad game planning and adjustments.
Draymond got his second foul at the end of the second, and he told MB he was staying in. Klay was on the sideline like WTF. :lmaoQuote:

yeah I sae that. Must be fun playing in a democracy. But we've known for years that Kerr doesn't do shit but let the players play. At this point, he's a better coach than popovich because if Pop was coaching the warrors, Mcgee wouldn't get any minutes, and as soon as they got a lead, the whole starting lineup would sit for the rest of the quarterQuote:

Umm, they were a second tier playoff team when they had a traditional coach (Mark Jackson).Quote:

I like Kerr, he was an important part of the Spurs 2003 title, and I wish him success. This isn't like laughing at Kobe's achilles, Kerr was a guy I loved on the Spurs and will always be someone I hope to see succeed.
Of everyone on that team he's the last one I'd want to get injured. But he's got his rings and his body is trying to tell him something.Quote:

He said in an interview that getting surgery was a bad, bad mistake... that they gave him a great prognosis and turned out to be bullshit...Quote:

Why do I hear so many failed surgeries in the US? If you're a millionaire, just go to Europe...I heard the GULF countries in Middle East hire the best Doctors.
Nool reason to have surgery in the USA.
The players took the team to the next level shooting crazy ass shots, thats not on Kerr or that scrub Walton who is doing miracles with the Lakers, what was Kerrīs strategy during 2015 Finals? it was a nonsense brickfest, highschool team fiasco there was no strategy at all. Embarrassing.Quote:

My sister did it quick and doesnt have too much complains.
Maybe Kerr fooled around too much, or had bad surgeons.
related to spinal fluid leaking iirc. no simple fix.
he could miss more than just this series.
wtfQuote:

The Warriors could replace Kerr with a washing machine and this current roster would still be heavy favorites to win the championship.

He takes after the hated Phil Jackson more than Pop, he sat at the end of the bench for the championships with the Spurs (ill give him credit for game 6 of 03 WCF but that's it), and he was gifted the best roster in NBA to become a "great head coach"? I mean Luke Walton won 40 out of 45 games with them.
