The clock ticks as the Warriors near the trade deadlines. They’re literally in talks with almost everyone to land an All-Star caliber talent to pair next to Stephen Curry and Draymond Green. As the team still tries to process the shock of the Luka Doncic and Anthony Davis trade, trades are only increasing the team’s tensions.

Right now, anything can happen. Players are aware of that.

But during this tough time, Steve Kerr is the one who delivers a few words of wisdom to his crew to ease their mental loads. Draymond Green opened up about this in his recent episode of The Draymond Green Show. “Steve kind of always acknowledges the elephant in the room. And he was just saying, like Steve said, I was traded five times in fifteen years, so I know how it feels, you know, and I never want any of you guys to go through that. But the reality is we’re .500 basketball teams, so you can just never be too sure.”

Green further added, I applaud Steve for acknowledging the elephant in the room and then also kind of sharing his own experience because that makes it real, Like, no, I know what this is, Like I went through this five times, moving my up and moving my family like and so I think that acknowledgment like goes a long way.”

Seems like even during tough times, Kerr really knows how to help his team keep composure. No wonder the Warriors dynasty is really looked up even when they are a .500 team.

Currently, no big moves have panned out for the Warriors. LaVine landed in Sacramento, leaving the Warriors empty-handed. To pick up their pieces, they tried to bring Jimmy Butler in, but because of his reluctance to commit to an extension, the Warriors front office backed out. They’re trying to shake things up by hoping to bring in Kevin Durant or LeBron James to play alongside Curry.

Of course, the Warriors aren’t too wrong in doing so. They really want to make the best out of Curry’s few prime years left. But adding fuel to the fire is the recent Instagram post where we can see a dozen GSW players bearing the team plane, but when you look closely, something is definitely off. Andrew Wiggins, Kevon Looney, Buddy Hield, and Lindy Waters II were nowhere to be seen.

Looks like the Warriors front office is working on something, but we don’t know for sure yet. But one thing’s for sure: Kerr and Stephen Curry are not going anywhere.

What’s your perspective on:

Can the Warriors' dynasty survive without landing a big star, or is Curry's prime being wasted?

Stephen Curry and Steve Kerr commit to the Warriors

Few duos in the NBA are as linked as Stephen Curry and Steve Kerr. They’ve built a dynasty together, riding the highs of championships and battling through the lows. Their connection isn’t just about basketball—it’s about trust, respect, and a shared vision. Kerr once joked about how much he loves yelling at Curry, something he did during a game in November. But at the core, there’s deep mutual respect. Speaking to The Ringer, Kerr clarified that he wouldn’t hesitate to keep coaching Curry for as long as possible.

“I would love nothing more than to coach Steph for the rest of his career because that’s what he means to me. And if he says that, if he told me, ‘I want you to coach me another year,’ as long as the Warriors agreed, I’m doing it. It’s automatic. I’m not even giving it a second thought.”

That trust showed on the international stage, too. During the 2024 Olympics, Curry helped Kerr’s Team USA secure gold with a clutch semifinal performance. Even in his 15th season, Kerr still marvels at how coachable Curry remains.

Most aging stars struggle with adapting, but Curry isn’t wired that way. He understands team success requires long-term thinking, not just short-term wins. That mentality keeps Golden State in the mix.

As long as Curry and Kerr are in the Bay, their impact on the Warriors’ future is undeniable. Their bond goes beyond the court—it’s the foundation of a dynasty.
