The Golden State Warriors have a lot going on right now
Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry has not been himself recently, and head coach Steve Kerr was asked for his thoughts on that development during a media availability session on Tuesday.
“I think there’s a little fatigue, it’s a long season,” Kerr said. “Usually every year he has a couple spells where he’s not on his game, and that’s just natural for any player. But I think we’ve thrown a ton on his shoulders. The burden that Steph Curry has on him for this franchise is unfair. The Draymond suspension – Draymond is the vocal leader of the team, obviously. He and Steph have kinda been co-captaining the leadership of our group for a decade. So without Draymond here, that adds a lot more to Steph’s plate.”
Kerr also made an interesting comment on Curry’s play-style, and how that’s been impacted by the Warriors integrating so many young players who haven’t played this style of basketball before.
“We’re trying to integrate a lot of young players,” Kerr added. “Steph has a very unique style. It’s the play after the play that matters with Steph. We’ve put him in some combinations where the play after the play isn’t happening, and that’s frustrating for him. He’s not James Harden or Luka [Doncic]. We’re not just gonna run high pick and roll and spread the floor and he’s gonna dribble 700 times, that’s not his game. He has to thrive off the ball just as he does on the ball. Frankly, we’ve had some combinations out there that don’t recognize that as well as certain combinations.”
Kerr finished by saying, “This guy has carried our torch for over a decade, and everything we’ve built is based on him. We’re putting too much on his plate right now.”
