Willard and Dibs discuss what Steve Kerr said on the Draymond Green Show last night after Game 2 of the NBA Finals. Were his comments about the Miami Heat bench an indirect shot at some of the young players on the Warriors’ roster?

Love started last night
JP was challenged several times before he got punched.
I never heard that Poole and Kuminga pouted all year. Heck Poole averaged 30 minutes a game in the regular season. However, Steve is not at all wrong in what he said. Like there's no crying in baseball, there's no pouting in basketball. I think Steve was sending a message to the new GM, via Draymond's podcast that he wants them to either grow up or move on.
Willard has an annoying smokers voice
And most of them were undrafted. The nba is all about opportunity man
Okay I can understand Kuminga pouting, the guy literally boasted your playoff chances when he was getting minutes in the regular season for him not play in the playoffs? Come on guys, Kerr only got those rings thanks to the trio and Steph’s greatness. He really had it made because he had 3 hall of fame players on his roster. If they do decide to take those young players who is going to put with draymond’s attitude is the question that has to be asked, honestly?
Maturity deficit? Draymond 33 yo assaulted Jordan Poole 23 yo.
Does anyone remember when the media and fan use to get on Steph for have bad energy (even Steph admitted to this), when he would walk to the bench his head would be down, especially when we were loosing. Now look at him.
All Miami's undrafted guys are 26-29. You can't expect 20 yr old guys to be on the same maturity level as guys who have 3-9 more years of life experience than them.
JK never played due to his effort in his first minutes of the Kings series. As a 20 yr old who is apparently hungry for minutes, you can't let a rebound hit the floor on your side of the court and not even make an effort to go get the ball. As soon as the kings went down the court and scored on the next possession, Kerr called a TO and that was that. JK's potential far outstrips Moody's, but Moody would've dove on the floor for that ball. That's why Moody played and JK didn't.
That's all fine & dandy but if we (the Warriors) give up on Kuminga …… then we need to address what the hell we're doing as an organization… we're giving up on a potential SUPERSTAR bcus he's acting like …. a 20 year old ??? Just pour into him more, get him right..
Trade Poole and the 19th pick for a bigger body/defender.. matching salaries is a whole different side of the issue also …
Draymond aint happy when he gets bench … its hypocritical
Lol you guys forgot JP got punched lol pathetic
I understand KD now..
So all the young talent chosen by the dubs are worthless, and we will get a bunch old geezers to play W/the old guys. Sounds like a championship to me! Not!
How the hell does Steve Kerr get lucky winning 9 rings? Steve Kerr is a winner period!!
Could they give you more than ty Jerome and Anthony lamb. I think so. It's far more at stake when you don't play them over G league guys.
All these dudes in Miami played for them last year!! Is this guy just talking!!? There coach played them!! Period!!
At the 13 minute mark. Why wasn’t everybody brought in Steve!! You on the podcast of the player that destroyed a lot of the young people buy in!!!
Kerr did not have the balls to play an active moody over Klay!!! The Lakers and Miami empowered thier young players… the vets would bitched if they were benched .. Draymond did it during the fuchkdhdh championship game GTFOH
Is Draymond an adult??? Cause I saw him pout being taken out a game showing up the coach in game
THERES NO ROOM FOR BAD ATTITUDES BUT THERES ROOM FOR draymond green. Delusional fan base.
Of course age is an issue… The roster was flawed. Veterans – not projects – are necessary to win a Title. Not prospects. You can have a young prospect or two. But HALF the roster being young projects/prospects? Youth is too inconsistent and immature.
Duncan Robinson is on a $90M contract. How can he possibly be considered “unheralded”? C’mon Dibs…
How about the other teams like the kings, Murray and Mitchel can play, Denver, Braun played, even Watson during the regular season has some good minutes. Even McDaniels from the Sixers, probably had better minutes this season than Kuminga. How about playing anthony Lamb more than Jamychal Green (hes a vet), how about those decisions not to play players? How about not giving Garbage time to Wiseman? Who decides those? Not Kerr?
People forget how coach Kerr treated Kevon looney those first years how Kerr broke players like Patrick McCaw. Kerr has a record of mistreating young payers. And how can you talk about 20s years old maturity on the podcast of a 33 years old who throw tantrums during games, get ejected in playoff games and punch teammates but gets everything he wants by Kerr ? And you are going to talk about pouting really ?
