Steve Kerr, Draymond Green and Stephen Curry declared a state of emergency
The Warriors are coming off a back-to-back and will head to New Orleans tonight to avoid a 5th straight loss. He fell to 12th in the Western Conference, ahead of his teammates, the Lakers. Stephen Curry They still haven’t won a single away game and it’s the most worrying way. As was the case last night in Orlando, the defense is completely absent and despite Steve Kerr’s numerous warnings, the substitutes are not bringing any energy to the group.
“We’re going to have to make some adjustments and some changes.” Golden State announces coach. “We are in nine matches. We have a good idea of the combinations and it’s time to try something else. »
“We have guys dying to be on the pitch”
Will he change the starting five? A priori, it is not because he does not have much need to condemn him. Tonight, the owners gave up 10-16 points several times. But as soon as the spins start, disaster strikes.
“Everyone will have a chance to play” Kerr warns. “We have guys dying to be on the field. We need to find formulas that work. We will discuss it with the staff and find out. »
As we can see after this “road trip”, it is James Wiseman who has to bear the brunt of these changes. The young center, as talented and athletic as he is, drifts into his team. In his place, we should see more of Jonathan Cummings, who has been stuck on the bench since the start of the season. Provided he puts in the effort in practice, as Kerr has chided him for his lack of participation.
“Yes, it is the youth’s fault. But it’s not their fault more than ours.”
For his part, Draymond Green puts everyone in the same basket, no pun intended. He feels as guilty as the substitutes or the youth. Everyone has their own responsibility.
“I’m not going to sit here and point fingers or fingers at our young people. We don’t operate like that.” Green explains. “They should learn and understand. Yes, actually it is their fault. This is undoubtedly the fault of our youth. But it’s also partly my fault, partly Stef’s, and partly Clay’s. It’s all our fault. We’re not playing at the level we need to win games. I will change the essence of my answer: Yes, it is the youth’s fault. But it is not their fault more than our fault. »
“We don’t want to go crazy and keep doing the same thing expecting different results”
It is unprecedented for the whole group to lose so many matches at the beginning of the season. Last season, the Warriors were waiting for game 30 to get their 6th loss. This is a new experience and you should accept it as such.
“We are used to learning by winning” Stephen Curry points out. “Even when things don’t go well, we find ways to get out of it, and you create automatisms… But we are aware that we have to play better and we lost, we haven’t been in this position for a while. The impression is just not good, all along the line. We don’t want to go crazy and keep doing the same thing hoping for different results, but we have to pull ourselves together and understand that everyone in this locker room has to find a solution. That’s what the job calls for. We are aware of that. It’s just hard now to keep playing, to keep giving it everything, to realize that our energy and effort is there and you have nothing to show for it. »
