"When will Steve accept his love for Podz and admit that he is coaching only to destroy Moody's career???? The most overrated fraud of a coach. Steph covers up a lott of Steve's brainless coaching," said another.
"Moody and buddy on the bench is hilarious. Moody had 15 points in 15m just to hold bench for the rest of the night. I hope he gets traded to a team that actually wants him," commented another fan.
"steve kerr finally came back to reality. let’s run our 2 worst offensive players on the court with our 2 best so they can get doubled for 6 minutes straight to close the game instead of buddy, lindy and/or moody," wrote another user.
"What Steve Kerr has done to Moody’s young career is criminal. Please trade him because it’s useless to keep him on the roster with Kerr coaching," a user commented.
"We need you to ask Kerr for an explanation why he benched Moody and Hield and waited so long to put Steph and Dray back in," said another user.
Steve Kerr reflects on Warriors' loss
Steve Kerr reflected on the Golden State Warriors' loss to the Brooklyn Nets, emphasizing the need for better execution after his team squandered a double-digit lead for the second consecutive game.
"You don’t want to overreact. I mean, two games ago, everyone was feeling great," Kerr said. "We have to address what’s happened these last two games. I don’t think it’s a fatigue thing. I think it’s an execution thing."
The Warriors will have an opportunity to address their shortcomings and return to winning ways when they face the OKC Thunder on Wednesday.
