With the Warriors trailing the Lakers 3-1, and therefore on the brink of elimination in the conference semifinals, does Steve Kerr think about the fact that he may be leading his ” Big Three” for the last time?
In effect, Draymond Green has the opportunity to test the market this summer and with the club’s accounts in the red, and the next collective agreement further complicating the affairs of overspending franchises, the Bay franchise may have to make choices, including on the extension of Klay Thompson…
“No, no, that never crossed my mind”, yet replied Steve Kerr during his appearance on 95.7 The Game’s “Willard and Dibs”, about the possible end of the Stephen Curry – Klay Thompson – Draymond Green trio. “I played on those Bulls teams, on ‘The Last Dance,’ and I can tell you that from experience, even though everyone is now saying, ‘Why didn’t they keep that team together?’ : this team was finished, it was at the end of its course. Emotionally, mentally, there was nothing left in the tank. I think these guys, Steph, Klay, Draymond, still have a lot to offer for years to come. »
While waiting to study the future of his trio, Steve Kerr is concentrating on the present, where he still relies as much on his “Big Three”. In Game 4, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson both spent 41 minutes in the field, while Draymond Green played over 37 minutes.
In the process, the coach therefore canceled the shootaround scheduled for Wednesday, to give them the maximum rest.
“It’s not sustainable for 82 games, obviously, but when the playoffs come around, these guys are in incredible physical shape and we make sure that every second between games is used to prepare for the next game, to take care of their body and recover energy. They rest today (yesterday) and they won’t have a shootaround tomorrow (today) morning so they will have 48 hours of rest between games. When Game 5 starts, they’ll have all the energy they need.” concluded Steve Kerr.
