NOTE: This interview occurred at 445p; Wiggins injury listed on injury report at 530p.
0:00 • Steve Kerr media availability at team hotel, day before Game 6, on his message to the team: “highlighting the things that we did well… locking in on our keys… strategy within all that changes game to game… still comes down to the same stuff, gotta defend without fouling… we understand the position that we’re in… got a little momentum…”
1:00 • On making yet more adjustments: “I would say by Game 6 the adjustments have already been made… Sacramento against us in Game 6 made a pretty bold move… went small… usually by this point everybody has seen everything from both sides.”
2:00 • On the season-long road woes: “…the regular season and the playoffs are two different entities… Wiggs… Gary… what you saw three months ago is nothing like what you’re seeing now… Game 4… controlled the game at Staples… we just didn’t close the game, so now we’ve gotta make sure we close it right too.”
3:00 • On having to outscored the Lakers with threes: “We didn’t play particularly well in the second half but we had really pushed the pace in the first half… 71 points… got a lot of points in the paint… Draymond’s aggressiveness… some nights they go in and sometimes they don’t… can still win even if you’re not making. A ton of threes.”
4:00 • On Jordan Poole: “First shot attempt was a really nice pump fake, step in… looked more like himself… excited about what he can do tomorrow.”
5:00 • On Wiggins: “Andrew is at his best when he’s aggressive and attacking the rim… three-point play… spun and drew the foul… back maybe three or four weeks… everything has come together… conditioning and endurance… now his rhythm and his shot… comfortable with his movement.”
6:00 • On anyone having a signature spin move: “Uh, I don’t really remember… he’s so quick getting by people… that’s one of his counters…”
7:00 • On the flopping striking a nerve: “You guys are for sure asking them about it too… the end of Game 4, the dive that Walker took to get the illegal screen was fresh in my mind… disappointed… I brought it up… frustration… I have a genuine interest in the NBA eliminating that stuff. It’s league-wide, it’s rampant… FIBA… giving the refs the power… right at a decisive moment of the game.”
NOTE: From Golden State Warriors media availability at team hotel, day before Game 5 vs LA Lakers, held at Beverly Wilshire in Beverly Hills, CA. WE WILL GO LIVE NEXT ON FRI 5/12 FOR G6 LAL-GSW AT 7:00PM PDT TIPOFF.
