Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr didn’t mince words after his team eked out another surprising victory despite a patchwork roster.
With multiple starters sidelined due to injuries, the Warriors have leaned on depth, grit, and timely performances from unexpected contributors to keep their season afloat.
After the latest win, Kerr candidly admitted, “I’m not sure we really deserved it, but we’ll take it.”
The remark highlighted the team’s acknowledgment of their struggles and the unpredictable nature of their recent games.
Yet, for all the uncertainty, Golden State has continued to find ways to win, demonstrating resilience that has kept fans and analysts intrigued.
Kerr praised the contributions of role players who have stepped up in the absence of stars like Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson.
“Our bench guys have been phenomenal,” Kerr said.
“They’ve embraced their roles, made big shots, and played with energy.
That’s the reason we’ve managed to keep winning games despite being shorthanded.”
The Warriors’ recent stretch has been a rollercoaster, with tight contests and occasional comebacks that underscore the challenges of playing without a full lineup.
Sports analysts note that while Golden State’s record might not reflect dominance, the team’s ability to stay competitive speaks volumes about Kerr’s coaching and the culture he has cultivated.
For now, Kerr and the Warriors are focused on taking things one game at a time, celebrating wins when they come and continuing to develop younger players who are gaining invaluable experience.
“We’ll enjoy these victories,” Kerr added, “because they don’t come easy, but we also know there’s work ahead.”
Even in a season marked by injuries and uncertainty, the Warriors’ ability to snatch wins against the odds is a reminder that experience, leadership, and team spirit can sometimes outweigh the absence of star power.
