Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr hilariously admitted that he knew Steph Curry's viral video of him making consecutive full-court shots was fake. The clip showed the Warriors superstar finding nothing but net on five one-handed full-court shots.

Kerr said he knew the video was fake when he saw five shots fall but would've considered it legitimate if it was three shots in a row.

“I knew it was fake when he made five in a row," said Kerr (via 95.7 The Game). Three in a row, he could do that.”

Curry's unlimited range and the clean edit of the video led many to believe that the clip was real. The video in the conversation is fake, but it wouldn't be surprising to see Curry knock similar trick shots if he decides to get a few reps in.

The former MVP has made it a tradition to hit outrageous shots during his pre-game warm-ups. It will be interesting to see if he includes a one-handed full-court shot in his pre-game routines in the future.


Steph Curry mocks himself after dismal outing in home loss against shorthanded Pacers

Steph Curry had NBA Twitter buzzing after the viral video of his full-court shots. The two-time MVP ended up trending again, but not for reasons he would've liked. Curry produced his worst performance of the season in the Warriors' embarrassing 112-104 home loss against the shorthanded Pacers on Monday.

Curry scored only 12 points, shooting a dismal 3 of 17 from the field and 2 of 10 from 3-point range. It was only the second home loss for the Dubs this season. The Pacers were without their top-performing players like Tyrese Haliburton and Myles Turner.

After the game, Curry spoke about the viral video and mocked himself for not making shots against the Pacers, saying (via 95.7 The Game):

“I did make two of them, though. I used them all then. I didn’t make any tonight.”

Rookie Andrew Nembhard outplayed Steph Curry and Co., leading Indiana's charge with 31 points, eight rebounds and 13 assists, shooting 61.9% from the floor, including five of seven from 3-point range. The Pacers got ahead early with a 34-21 first-quarter lead. The Warriors tied the game midway through the second quarter and even took a two-point lead.

However, they couldn't hold onto their advantage. The Warriors had no answer for Nembhard and the rest of the Pacers' offense. It ultimately came down to individual production, but with Steph Curry misfiring, the Dubs couldn't stop the bleeding down the stretch and eventually lost the tie, dropping to 13-12 for the season.
