Steve Kerr Makes Rare Acknowledgment with Warriors Roster Stretched Thin

basketball warriors nba golden state

Steve Kerr rarely complains publicly about roster issues. So when he acknowledged the Warriors are stretched thin it meant something.

Golden State has been dealing with injuries and absences that would test any teams depth. Kerr usually maintains positivity but even he has limits.

NBC Sports Bay Area covered Kerrs comments and what they reveal about the teams situation.

The Curry Thompson Green core is still elite when healthy but theyre not always healthy and the supporting cast has been in flux.

Championship windows are finite. The Warriors know this better than most having won multiple titles and now fighting to stay relevant.

Kerr is a master of managing expectations while keeping his team confident. The public acknowledgment suggests genuine concern not just coach speak.

The front office faces decisions about how much to sacrifice for the present versus building for when the stars age out. Neither path is easy.

For now the Warriors play who they have and hope health cooperates. Kerr will find ways to compete because thats what good coaches do.
