Amidst the Promising Update on Stephen Curry, Coach Steve Kerr Is Optimistic About Warriors? Future: ?There?s Plenty of Time for Us to Get Going?

The dark clouds of trouble seem to be hovering over the Golden State Warriors. However, now there is a tinge of light coming through. Earlier today, the Warriors’ front office released an update on their injured superstar Stephen Curry. The update stated that the two-time MVP was making “good progress” and that he would be “re-evaluated in two weeks”. Two weeks is certainly a very long time in the NBA, but in light of the results of recent games, any good news is welcomed by the organization. Amidst this update, coach Steve Kerr voiced his optimistic attitude about the team’s future.

The Golden State Warriors have been subjected to a grueling road trip. The team is now striving to put the torments of this trip behind them as their Christmas Day game approaches. To do so, they are focusing on being positive. As Warriors’ star Draymond Green put it, “You’ve got to work [for] positive outcomes, positive feelings, that ultimately give you that boost of confidence.”?A similar attitude of optimism radiated through Steve Kerr during his interview with ‘95.7 The Game’s ‘Damon & Ratto’. ?

Coach Kerr found this situation to be helpful. He highlighted the depth seen and stated that everyone is competing. The optimism soared through as he claimed that the Warriors aren’t in a very bad position. While it isn’t the position they wanted to be in, they know that they are “not too far behind”. He said,?“There’s plenty of time for us to get going.”?

Key takeaways from the Warriors’ road trip

Despite ending the road trip with five losses, coach Kerr is focused on the positives the trip brought them. One, the team has the formula to win without the presence of Stephen Curry. Two, the development and improvement that James Wiseman has shown.

According to Kerr, Wiseman has proven to be instrumental on both ends of the court. On the offensive end, Wiseman can score and make big shots. However, his contribution on the defensive end was what stood out to Kerr. He expressed that in the recent games, the young star has been “in the right position” and called out for “the right coverages”.
