The Golden State Warriors have had a disappointing series so far in the season. Apart from missing out on players due to injuries, the team struggles to construct a winning streak. Especially, in their last outing against the Sacramento Kings, they blew out the game even after producing a 24-point lead. Despite the frustrating loss, the team doesn’t seem to have lost their spirits. Ahead of the Dubs’ big-3’s special game on Thursday night, coach Steve Kerr sent out a heartwarming message.

Kerr joined the Warriors camp in 2014 and since then the Dubs have been the most successful team in the league. The team not only won 4 championships but also believed in the core three, Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green. Especially after a lot of criticism of Klay and DrayMagic for their underwhelming performances in the last two seasons, Kerr continued to back them.

The season has been a rollercoaster ride for the Dubs. They kick-started it with a  5-game winning streak and followed by a 6-game losing streak. While the team has a lot at stake, it has other troubles as well. Draymond Green missed 5 games due to a suspension, Klay Thompson struggled to get buckets and Stephen Curry missed a couple of games due to a knee injury.

Despite all the setbacks, the management continued to trust their core as they have been doing for the last 13 years. Moreover, as a reflection of the trio’s bond, the Thursday night game against the Los Angeles Clippers turned out to be a perfect tribute.

The league perfectly crafted the Thursday night game for the Dubs, as the date matches the jersey numbers of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green (30/11/23). In the same spirit, a reporter asked Steve Kerr about coaching them on the special date, and he only had a heartwarming response. Kerr said, “I’m forever in these guys’ debt… Coaching these guys, it doesn’t happen often… Love all three guys.” 

 

Kerr further spoke about the relationships that he has built with all three of them, apart from winning the titles.

Despite the two struggling seasons, the Warriors under Kerr are the most successful side of the league in the last decade. While talking about Kerr’s attitude for the team, Steph had something important to deliver, reported NBC Sports. He said, “He never puts himself above or below anybody, but he has a fire that comes with him… He’s not the one that’s going to say he’s the main cause for something, even though he’s been extremely.”
