Steve Kerr is unhappy with the way his Golden State Warriors team have performed recently.
The Warriors fell to the Brooklyn Nets last night in a disappointing 143-113 defeat, which was their fifth loss in their six-game road trip. Golden State is now 1-5 in their ongoing road trip and 3-16 overall away from home. They're 15-18 on the season.
The Warriors are certainly not playing like the defending champions, which has frustrated their coach. According to ESPN, Kerr didn't hold back when he recently called out his players. The coach told his players that the team's record is a reflection of everyone's performance.

"You are what your record says you are," Kerr said. "It was a bad road trip. We are 15-18, so we're a below-.500 team, and we've got to find a way to reverse that."

To be fair, the Warriors' main scorers Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and Andrew Wiggins did not play against Brooklyn. However, it's understandable why Kerr is upset. It was the perfect opportunity for Golden State's young core to prove their worth, but most of them put up lousy performances.

James Wiseman, though, stepped up to the occasion, putting up 30 points, six rebounds and two assists. However, one guy the Warriors expect elite-level performances from is Jordan Poole. The young guard, who is signed on a four-year contract worth $123 million, only put up 13 points, two assists and one rebound.
End of an era for Golden State Warriors?

The Golden State Warriors, led by Steph Curry, Draymond Green and Klay Thompson, have built a dynasty. They dominated the league with their sharpshooting and impeccable defensive efforts, which has helped them win four championships since 2015. However, it appears that the dynasty is now approaching its final chapter.
Steph Curry is undoubtedly still an MVP-caliber talent who has plenty left in the tank. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for his fellow veterans. After suffering multiple major injuries, Klay Thompson is no longer the player he once was during his prime. As for Draymond Green, he's struggling to get along with the team's young core and is becoming less efficient on the court too.
While the Golden State Warriors may have won their fourth title during the Curry era last season, that could be their last in a while. At the moment, the next generation of Warriors players are struggling to keep up with the championship-level style of play. Now that the veterans are getting old, it's difficult to predict if the Warriors can hit their stride any time soon.
