The Golden State Warriors suffered a 120-114 loss to the Denver Nuggets on Christmas Day, and Warriors head coach Steve Kerr went on a bit of a rant about how the league is legislating defense after Nikola Jokic shot 18 free throws in the game. “I have no problem with the officials themselves, all across […]

There seems to be some semblance of life for the Golden State Warriors after their impressive come-from-behind win over the Boston Celtics on Tuesday. Stephen Curry showed once again why he is the most clutch player in the NBA. Klay Thompson is slowly beginning to regain his form. Steve Kerr’s internal changes such as sending […]

When you look back on the 2021-22 season and the Golden State Warriors making the climb back to the top of the NBA with their fourth championship since 2015, it’s clear to see the impact Jordan Poole had. A dynamic and agile guard who took on the task of playing behind Stephen Curry and Klay […]

The Golden State Warriors were pretty excited to pick up a 132-126 win over the Boston Celtics on Tuesday night, and it was a rowdy environment given the history between these two squads. In a sense, some folks may be curious if head coach Steve Kerr believed that the environment resembled the “South Beach club” […]

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr isn’t known for his willingness to throw rookies straight into the line of fire. Over the past three seasons, Kerr has brought the likes of Jonathan Kuminga and Moses Moody along slowly. However, the Warriors’ current roster predicament appears to be forcing Kerr’s hand into giving Trayce Jackson-Davis, […]

Nobody has had more front row seats for Stephen Curry’s most memorable crunch-time heroics in the past decade than Steve Kerr. The Golden State Warriors’ longtime head coach has watched Curry win four championships, two MVPs and one Finals MVP, the latter of which included the signature performance of his legendary career to date. The […]

The Golden State Warriors, entering their Sunday night clash against the Portland Trail Blazers, haven’t exactly been on solid ground even though they managed to swing a huge victory on the first night of a back-to-back against the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday. Draymond Green remains out due to suspension, and Stephen Curry hasn’t been at […]

Stephen Curry rescued the Golden State Warriors from yet another blown double-digit lead on Saturday, scoring 12 straight fourth quarter points to lead his team to a 124-120 victory over the Brooklyn Nets. He finished with 37 points and six triples on 14-of-22 shooting, beating his chest to a fawning Chase Center crowd as the […]

SAN FRANCISCO — The Golden State Warriors were close to reeling even before Draymond Green struck Jusuf Nurkic in the face, drawing an immediate ejection and ultimately an indefinite suspension. Steve Kerr opened the second half of their loss to the Phoenix Suns with Brandin Podziemski and Jonathan Kuminga starting for Andrew Wiggins and Kevon […]

Stephen A. Smith used his platform on ESPN First Take to respond to Steve Kerr’s apparent slight of him during the Warriors pre-game presser last night. Kerr spoke about media criticism of Stephen Curry’s leadership that had become a topic following Draymond Green’s suspension after striking Jusuef Nurkić in the team’s Tuesday game vs. the […]

For the first time throughout this dynastic run, Steve Kerr looked away from Klay Thompson and kept the veteran sharpshooter on the bench down the stretch as the Golden State Warriors attempted to stage a late-game rally during their 119-116 loss to the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday night. Does that signal the start of sweeping […]

The Golden State Warriors’ much-needed starting lineup change didn’t lead to a win on Thursday. The Dubs fell 121-113 to the surging Los Angeles Clippers, porous point-of-attack defense and Stephen Curry’s second straight off night dooming them to a seventh consecutive road loss. Still, Golden State will return home from a winless three-game road trip […]

LOS ANGELES, CA – Steve Kerr and the Golden State Warriors are preparing to be without Draymond Green for potentially an extended period of time as he deals with the ramifications of his NBA-issued suspension. On Wednesday, the league issued an indefinite suspension to Green for his spinning hit to the face of Suns center […]

The Golden State Warriors have won four championships thanks to the dynamic duo of Steve Kerr and Stephen Curry, but now find themselves with a sub-.500 record a little over 20 games into the 2023-2024 NBA season.

At some point, enough is enough when it comes to Draymond Green and his antics on the court for the Golden State Warriors. The NBA ultimately decided that what Green did on Tuesday night against the Phoenix Suns was the final straw, as the league suspended Draymond indefinitely after he struck Suns center Jusuf Nurkic […]

Andrew Wiggins and Kevon Looney didn’t start the second half of the Golden State Warriors’ familiar, ugly loss to the shorthanded Phoenix Suns on Tuesday night. When push came to shove in crunch-time, with the Dubs vying to avoid yet another loss in a game they led by double-digits, Klay Thompson joined his fellow longtime […]

The Golden State Warriors are a below-.500 basketball team heading into Thursday night against the Clippers adding even more fuel to the fire surrounding Draymond Green’s antics on the court. Green received an indefinite suspension on Wednesday night for smacking Jusuf Nurkic of the Suns, a decision that had fans and others reacting strongly. Clippers […]

The Golden State Warriors aren’t a championship caliber team so far this season, but the good news for Warriors fans is that they’re still in competition for a playoff spot, unlike the Detroit Pistons. The Pistons are now recognized as one of the NBA’s worst teams during a time in which they have lost 20 […]

It’s getting tiring. Draymond Green’s ejection Tuesday night may be the last straw for the Golden State Warriors. His actions could finally force the Warriors’ hand to make a drastic change: trade Draymond Green. Green’s antics took another turn during Golden State’s 119-116 loss to the Phoenix Suns when the power forward knocked Jusuf Nurkic […]

Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors’ dark days continued during their 119-116 loss to the Phoenix Suns, but one rookie shined bright for Dub Nation on Tuesday night — Brandin Podziemski.

Late in the game, though, the Dubs had a unique look that perplexed fans, and after the contest ended, Steve Kerr dished on his polarizing decision that […]

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr is probably getting tired of answering questions about the conduct of Draymond Green. Though, he sounds even more exasperated about being forced to coach around his forced absences during games. Green was ejected in the third quarter after hitting Phoenix Suns’ Jusuf Nurkic in the face (says it […]

The Golden State Warriors have a pivotal Western Conference matchup upcoming against the Phoenix Suns. The Warriors enter the game with a 10-12 record and are 11th in the West. Steph Curry will look to help his team to victory, but Steve Kerr is getting a head start before the game. Kerr had quite the […]

Weeks ago, Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr ranted about how loud the music was in the Footprint Center. Wanting to have the last laugh, the Phoenix Suns’ arena DJ recently produced a remix of Kerr’s rant in an attempt to troll the Warriors coach. When asked how he felt about the remix, Kerr […]

Steve Kerr and Stephen Curry are alike in a lot of ways, but they are also quite different. Sure, Curry and Kerr are both great shooters. But the Golden Warriors coach opted for more traditional three-point attempts when he played, while Curry is no stranger to knocking down shots from half-court and beyond. Kerr recently […]

The lineup change that Steve Kerr began publicly mulling on Wednesday night and continued discussing the following day didn’t end up taking place against the Oklahoma City Thunder. His team’s latest loss wasn’t the sole product of a struggling, stale starting five anyway. Considering the disastrously familiar tenor of their 138-136 overtime loss to the Thunder […]

The Golden State Warriors outscored the Oklahoma City Thunder from beyond the arc by a staggering 42 points.

Steve Kerr still doesn’t know whether he’ll make changes to the starting lineup for his team’s road tilt with the Oklahoma City Thunder on Friday. Less than 24 hours after publicly mulling that possibility for the first time, though, the Golden State Warriors’ longtime coach elaborated further on the numbers crunch his abnormally deep roster […]

At least the Golden State Warriors came away victorious, right? The clarity Steve Kerr and the coaching staff are still looking for from their team was nowhere to be found Wednesday night, though, as a rash of early turnovers and cold three-point shooting nearly contributed to Golden State’s most embarrassing loss of the season. Fortunately, […]

In another universe, Steph Curry could have been a Phoenix Sun. Take a breath Warriors fans, it’s not reality. However, during the 2009 NBA Draft, Steve Kerr was the general manager for the Suns and was interested in trying to trade up for Curry, who resembled Steve Nash to the Suns. “I was the GM […]

SAN FRANCISCO — The Golden State Warriors just played some of their best basketball of the season absent three rotation players who are indispensable to their hopes of winning another title. Chris Paul and Andrew Wiggins are likely to return from minor injury on Wednesday against the Portland Trail Blazers, while Gary Payton II will […]

For the second time in a week, Steve Kerr and the Golden State Warriors squandered a big lead and lost a game, as they suffered a 113-112 loss on the road against the Los Angeles Clippers Saturday night. For Kerr, the defeat at the hands of Paul George and company was more painful than the […]

The Golden State Warriors outlasted the Los Angeles Clippers on Thursday night, using a big game from the bench to beat their California rivals 120-114 at the Chase Center in San Francisco. “The story of the game was really the bench,” Dubs coach Steve Kerr explained afterwards, per ClutchPoints’ Jack Winter. “Brandin [Podziemski], Dario [Saric], […]

Klay Thompson seemed en route to another deflating early-season performance against the Los Angeles Clippers, curbing the steady momentum he’d quietly built over the last 10 days. The Golden State Warriors’ veteran star entered Thursday’s action with at least 20 points in three of the last four games, finding the range on his jumper en […]

Up by as many as 24 points on Tuesday night against the Sacramento Kings, the Golden State Warriors appeared to be on their way to a 3-0 record against the Kings on the season, as well as advancing to the quarterfinals of the NBA In-Season Tournament. However, a second-half collapse by the Warriors and some […]

Gary Payton II’s early exit in the Golden State Warriors’ NBA In-Season Tournament loss to the Sacramento Kings was crucial.

The Golden State Warriors had a golden chance to be the final team to enter the knockout stage of the inaugural NBA In-Season Tournament, as they led the Sacramento Kings by a considerable margin for much of a game that they needed to win by 12 points or more. However, it seemed like head coach […]

The Golden State Warriors entered their NBA In-Season Tournament matchup against the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday night with a puncher’s chance of making it to the knockout stage. All they needed to do was to win by 12 points or more, then they’ll have a better point differential than the Kings, the leader of their […]

The Golden State Warriors aren’t putting out a championship-level product so far during the 2023-24 season, but the Dubs franchise has noticed more than a few silver linings. Recently, Warriors star Draymond Green shared his true feelings on the choke against Rudy Gobert that led to his suspension. Green spoke in defiance of the suspension […]
