Now that the NBA Finals have reached the final stage of the Finals, the first game has also been arranged for the Dragon Boat Festival in traditional Chinese festivals, and presumably this season's Finals will also attract great attention. Although they have not met in the finals before, the Warriors who have entered the finals six times in eight years are against the historical giants Celtics with many elite players, and such a duel will certainly be very exciting. For the Warriors to once again enter the Finals, head coach Kerr also talked about his ideas in a blog show, and the content was also quite exciting.
Warriors coach Kerr said in a Versaille-like tone on the show that he has reached the Finals for the 11th time, including the player era and the head coach era, which is undoubtedly a great honor for the 56-year-old Kerr. Kerr made 11 finals including three in the Bulls and two in the Spurs, and finally reached the Finals six times in eight years under the Warriors. It is worth noting that Cole has won the championship five times in the finals as a player, which has also given him a total of five championship rings in his career.
This is one of the few in the entire history of the NBA, although Cole in the player era is more of a role player, but he has also staged a good play in the playoffs, and even stole jordan's limelight at the time. However, Kerr also showed his very humble side in the show, saying that he was actually very lucky, because he had been able to work with players such as Jordan, Pippen, Duncan and David Robinson, and later met players like Curry and Green, and he was indeed very lucky.
To be honest, Kerr's words are really very modest, because Cole in the player era has a good tactical position in the Bulls and Spurs, and he was one of the highest three-point shooting rates in NBA history. And later his experience in coaching the Warriors is actually very legendary, so far Kerr still maintains the highest playoff wins, it can be said that if it were not for Kerr coaching the Warriors, the Warriors may not be able to achieve a good result of five years and three championships that year, and naturally there is no record of entering the Finals six times in eight years.
In fact, Kerr and the Warriors can be said to be complementary to each other, many people say that the previous head coach found Curry and Thompson, the splash brothers to let the Warriors have the capital to rise, but we all know that the Warriors' five small tactics that were popular around the world and the passing and cutting tactics that used Green as the core of the tactics are inseparable from Kerr, and Kerr can lead the trend of the league to apply these tactics in the game, which is his superiority. If it weren't for Kerr, Green would probably have faded out of the league by now and would never have held such an important position in the Warriors.
The Warriors have great hopes of regaining the title this season, and Kerr is likely to win another championship ring in his career, when the number of his championship rings will come to 9. Although there are still some fans who think that Kerr is not important to the Warriors, and even think that Kerr has given Curry a lot of restrictions, but from the actual situation, Kerr's help to the Warriors is not insignificant. So even from that point of view, Kerr is still one of the best head coaches in NBA history.
