Steve Kerr Always a Warrior.

Steve Kerr Always a Warrior.

Steve Kerr got paid this year. Becoming the highest-paid coach in the NBA. He was a man who helped build the Warriors culture. Now, for close to a decade, the Golden State has become one of the greatest teams of all time. Getting a two-year extension indicates that Kerr may ride it out with the Warriors as long as Steph is playing. The pressure is on Marc Lowe and Mike Dunleavy's court. They need to build the Warriors a squad that can compete.

Under Kerr's coaching, Draymond Green, Klay Thompson, and Andrew Wiggins became All-Stars. Both Green and Thompson were not given the chance to improve. They got it when Kerr changed how the team played. The three were able to take over, and the center position became irrelevant. Golden State took small ball to a whole other level. The Warriors also developed many role players who played a huge role in their final run. Jordan Poole, Jordan Bell, Patrick McCaw, and more were able to shine under the system. Players knew their role and were able to thrive in the system. The success of Kerr's game plan has resulted in winning four championships.

The Warriors are looking for their fifth championship. Steve Kerr has earned himself the title of being one of the greatest coaches of all time. He joins his former coaches and mentors, Phil Jackson and Greg Popovich, on the list. With a two-year extension, the Warriors need to win a championship. With their aging big three, they are on a short timetable. This was a well-deserved extension. Steve Kerr is a key factor for this franchise. Steve Kerr is a lifelong warrior!
