This guy has already made 75 pro-gun posts today in a thread about 19 elementary school kids getting shot up and killed and somehow didn't get enough of that discussion to the point that he needed to bring it up unprompted in a basketball thread.
You are the only one that has mentioned the topic. I never have said it in this thread. Still haven't. I have only said that Kerr was distracted tonight. The result proves my claim. [Reply]

Oh wait. He's a fucking coach. Who did all the prep work for this game before he got "distracted".
His "preaching" had zero effect on his team's ability/inability to win tonight. I think you know that, too.
He probably doesn't, he's that dense.
Back tot he subject at hand Golden State is good for one of those kind of games every series. If they had 2 more minutes last night they come back and win. [Reply]
If the Warriors backups had just stayed in that would have been a great story if they made a comeback win. As soon as Kerr started putting in starters Dallas woke back up and started scoring. Those bench players were looking decent. [Reply]

Anything short of a win and Kerr was going to be criticized. If he kept the bench in and they couldn't finish closing the gap, he would have been dumb for not putting back the starters. [Reply]

Pretty basic stuff.
You have zero proof that current events negatively affected his coaching.
Maybe if his son were on staff and did some drinking and caused a permanent injury to a little girl during the week of the Super Bowl, then sure. You might be fair to assume he was distracted.
It affected his coaching even though he found out after the walkthrough and shoot around for that night? Highly doubtful. It’s far more likely you just disagree with what he said and you’re just being a vagina about it in a shitty smarmy way, [Reply]

That's a good point. Guess I wanted to see the Warrior backups earn that win. [Reply]
