Is Kerr the league's most overrated head coach?
Although Kerr has a glorious history of five years of three crowns, but looking back at Kerr's coaching career, he seems to have never proved his coaching ability, he just enjoyed the benefits of the Warriors lineup: the Warriors won the championship lineup was built by West's grandfather, the Warriors' offensive and defensive system was built by Jackson, and as a result, Kerr took office to enjoy the benefits, and the Warriors won the championship in the first year after taking office. It's like building a house, the old man laid the foundation, Jackson built the house, and the person who lived there was Cole. As far as the Warriors' lineup that year was concerned, whoever brought it could lie down and win the championship, and the 24-game winning streak led by assistant coach Wharton was the best proof.
Cole's coaching ability can only be described in general:
The 15-16 Warriors Finals loss to the Cavaliers upset to the Cavaliers, leaving aside the off-court factors, Korna's confident 12-man rotation is definitely the main responsibility for losing, such a key game, but also with such a long rotation, a bit of lost confidence.
In the 17-18 season, West Finals Kerr's passing system was eaten to death by the Rockets, but he was still stubborn and almost made a big mistake to lose the series. Fortunately, in the end, Adu curry let go of his own work, which was the only way to get through the rocket level.
Look at the 19-20 season, the Warriors without splash Adu achieved the bottom of the West under Kerr.
After Curry's life-saving charm came back last season, Cole began to live up again, let Curry play without the ball at the beginning of the game, let his teammates play first, and the good guys almost ran the lottery again, but after Curry broke out to turn the tide, the Warriors' record was not so embarrassing.
From these things, you can see Kerr's coaching ability, saying that he is a clown standing on the shoulders of giants is not exaggerated, I hope that this season's Warriors will continue to lose, tear off Kerr's last fig leaf, let the Warriors management take a good look, get together in the offseason, And Kerr will be at ease to be an assistant coach.
