“It was our mistakes that I’m more concerned about”. “We’re very confident that these guys are the best in the world, and they really are phenomenal”. These Warriors are truly special, and there’s no arguing that. They are expected to challenge the Golden State Warriors for the Western Conference crown.
Steve Kerr has gone on record saying he should’ve rested more players down the stretch last season as they seemed worn out late season.
“They should get rid of it”. We look at some of his many other achievements.
“That was the way [David] Stern wanted it handled, and it wasn’t subject to collective bargaining; the players had to accept the commissioner’s edict, and they never felt like they had any clout in this area”, Lawrence writes.

This was an absolute thriller, a contest played with pitched emotion, frenetic movements and elite execution from the opening tip. Thanks to the shot- and playmaking of Irving, who finished with 25 points, 10 assists and seven steals, the Cavs erased a 14-point fourth-quarter deficit to vanquish the Warriors and spoil Kevin Durant’s first game against the Cavs since joining the Dubs this past offseason.
