Beijing time on October 18, Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors are expected to rebound after two dismal back-to-back seasons. The Warriors, who have won five straight games in preseason, have once again demonstrated their formidable combat prowess, and Kerr is both satisfied with curry's performance during that period, even though he has been coaching the super shooter for many years. Kerr said he had thought Curry would be in a state of decline at the age of 33, but the truth was completely unexpected.
In these five games, Curry is just a small test, meaning a little, but still can cut 24.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 22.8 minutes of playing time, shooting 50.0% from the field and 40.5% from three-point range. Warriors head coach Steve Kerr acknowledged that Curry is the most efficient player he's ever seen in the NBA, and his three-point ability is unprecedented. In an interview with NBC Sports, Kerr said: "I admit I was conquered by Curry, I have never seen a player play like this. ”
"At the same time, I feel fortunate to be able to coach such a top scorer, your pressure would be greatly reduced, without Stephen I would probably have been fired a long time ago, thank you for making me what I am." I would say that I've never seen a player so good at three points. Before he came out, Ray Allen and Reggie Miller were what we thought were the top scorers in history, but compared to Curry now, they were 'insignificant'. When a veteran can still dominate the game in his own way at the age of 33, you have to lament his strength. Cole continued.
Kerr stressed that their expectations in the new season will certainly be much higher than in the past few seasons, especially considering that they have brought in several right-hand men this year, Poole's performance has been renewed, plus Klay, Wiseman will return to the game. Kerr hinted in his statement that as a head coach, coaching players like Curry, he will also face a lot of pressure because he feels there is no reason not to win, but in the past few years, the Warriors have entered a low point. With Klay Thompson making a comeback after two years of injury, a healthy Warriors team is expected to be a nuisance in the league.
At this point, without making it to the playoffs, Kerr bluntly said their season was not a success. Curry is getting older, and there's no denying that his golden years are coming to an end. But Kerr and the Warriors want to use his peak form as much as possible to help the team get back into the title race. Kerr shouldn't worry too much, a top scorer and super point guard like Curry, in his current state, he won't have a problem playing for three or five years, however, if he wants to win the championship, he will have to see how much Klay recovers.
