Perk BLAMES Steve Kerr for Warriors struggle 🗣️ Hints at changes needed to be made 👀 | NBA Today

The Warriors lose by one here’s Steve Kerr on that final play I really prefer the scramble situations at the end of games where a defense um can’t you know get set up and make subs and you know um this is one that you know um you just it keeps you

Up at night probably should have been a timeout right when I got the ball and turn and saw that the court wasn’t balanced right and we still have plenty of time but you know the chaos of the moment you’re trying to make a play and sometimes it works out sometimes it

Doesn’t Okay I want to be fair right for the record since Steve Kerr has been the head coach of the Golden State Warriors they have been the best offense in the league in this type of situations the final 15 seconds when it’s tied or they’re trailing without a timeout

Without calling a timeout so historically they’ve done just fine here but perk who deserves the blame for this but that’s the pass this is the now this is not the same team look you have to extend uh the time you have to get as many possessions as you possibly can

Steve Curry is to blame you have to call that timeout once her to missed those free throws because now guess what if you go down you draw up something quick you get another you get a shot at the basket all of a sudden if you don’t miss

Now you foul at worse at worst they go down and make two free throws they up three points you still got another opportunity to tie the game with the best shooter that’s ever walked the planet Earth this is on Steve cerr you have to use your timeouts in this

Position see I think the timeout you call it when he gets trapped in the corner there in the court it’s too late it’s too late Ramona what this is why I’m trying to figure out chenet and Malika what he I mean what you trying to take the timeouts home what you want to

What you want a a steak mashed potatoes in the side of I’m just trying to figure it out come on now you know it’s sometimes good to not let the defense know exactly what going they’re going to do in scheme and if there’s one team you trust in those situations it’s the

Golden State Warriors but what I saw there is usually the Warriors when they have end of game scenarios they have a purpose they’re dribbling up with a purpose the moment Steve Kerr saw oh the ball’s drifting around they’re trying there was there was no urgency he should

Have called it way earlier than the double team think it doesn’t come down to just that play oh no no no right before this is Harrison Barnes who had 39 points right and kaminga is on him his assignment was to stay on Barnes he leaves Barnes he’s open for three like a

Lot of this is just them getting used to this new closing lineup that they’re playing with kaminga in there at the end and even earlier in the game Steph Curry he had a huge first quarter then he struggled a little bit in the second I’m not blaming this on Steph and his

Scoring ability here but they had opportunities earlier to stretch their lead and they just didn’t one team though that did not take their foot off the gas was the New York Knicks who is under more pressure this year to turn their team season around I think it’s

Steph Curry I mean I know everybody we always bring up LeBron’s age but like the man just made his 20th straight All-Star game yeah his 20th straight all allar game and you know I was standing there last night and the one of the Laker PR staffers went over to um went

Over to LeBron afterwards to talk about you know what Mak it his All-Star Game and he goes what what song encapsulates this for you and he said what more do I need to say by Jay-Z and he starts singing it in the locker room right like

He’s he’s there right and it’s on the Lakers to to to build and play the way they did last night make shots like they did against the Chicago Bulls but the Warriors are still figuring it out perk we are just talking about they don’t even know what their best lineup is yet

They’re still working on their best lineup and so I think for Steph Curry where they’re fighting for the existence of the dynastic team this year Klay Thompson could be a free agent Steve kerk could is in it last year of his deal is the pressure is on the Warriors

The pressure is on Steph Curry to hold this all together right and not just on the floor the pressure is on him to actually be a leader and be a franchise player and have a voice have a courage have the courage and go outside your comfort zone right you can see the

Writing on the wall right now you can see that the Dynasty is over and it’s okay like I understand the close relationship that you have with Dre Draymond Green I understand the close relationship that you have with Klay Thompson but at the end of the day if you’re standing on business and you’re

The franchise guy you are golden state right you are San Francisco the Bay Area whatever the case may be you have to stand up from a leadership aspect and I’m not just talking about on the floor decis it’s not just on step I think we

Feel like staff can go and say I want this and I want that and sometimes in those circumstances they don’t work out so well I mean we’re criticizing this week the Milwaukee Bucks because there’s a lot of pressure on Giannis sometimes that smoke not everyone wants that you

Said that step is I mean you sort of question I guess leader I wrote it down leadership and being a franchise player Steph Curry is absolutely that like he is a leader by the way he plays and he’s a franchise player we all know four championships he’s a heart and soul of

That now the question is do we want him to go and be something that he is not yes and which is what but but that’s why if you realize that something that he is not he’s not going to be disloyal to his guys then you have to have a system

Around you that supports you is the system strong enough right now is the system of personnel players is the system of coach is the you know the decision making I’m not putting it all on Steph I think he’s done a great job it may be uncare uncharacteristic of him

But like this is not just his BL perk you just blew my mind with that like you just you do you want Steph to go to Draymond or clay and say you don’t have anymore or do you want him to go to management and say they don’t have

Anymore is that what you is that I mean that’s that’s that’s a heck of a thing for him to do well it’s uncomfortable but let me tell you something it’s not what you do it’s how you do it that’s you I mean because LeBron like like you

You bring up a good point we’re talking about Stephen LeBron right LeBron has you know he doesn’t send flowers right when it’s over it’s over Dwayne Wade when he was in Miami he came out to Vegas and hung out with him in free agency and LeBron said Wayne it’s been

Nice I’m going to Cleveland right like when it’s over it’s over they’ll hang out in the office and they and they had a dinner right when when BR left Miami BOS Wade and and Brun had a dinner okay let me let me give you a prime example

When things are not done right do you know why the beef was going on with Paul Pierce Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett it’s not because that Ray Allen went to Miami it’s how he left to go to Miami see what I’m saying so it’s not what you do it’s

How you do it but you’re saying that the Golden State Warriors and Steph specifically are at the point where he needs to figure out how to do it and do that yes and figure listen he is that being is that face to face or he has to

Like but no but like he has to be the voice so so my for example so you mean to tell me that Steph Curry don’t know that it’s tension between Klay Thompson and the front office behind this contract right now that they’re not in Alliance for as the numbers and the

Years he knows everybody’s situation okay okay if Steph wanted to speak up for his boy clay do you actually think he could walk up and go have a meet with but didn’t we get one of the best sound bites because after that tension Steve Kerr stepped in and had a conversation

With clay and that was sort of Steve Cur not Steph no but that’s my point because it’s not just Steph it takes and it takes other people around him too because that is who Steph is’s he’s not the guy that I know what you’re saying nothing is going to happen in Golden

State andless Steph Curry is cool and which which I don’t this is what I’m about to say the two PS okay Steve cerr is popular when it comes to alongside Steph Curry that is powerful powerful people moves the needle not popular people so you’re saying those conversations need to be had in order

For turn some things Around

Malika Andrews, Kendrick Perkins, Ramona Shelburne and Chiney Ogwumike react to the Golden State Warriors’ 1-point loss to the Sacramento Kings and debate whether LeBron James or Stephen Curry are under more pressure to turn their season around.
