Steve Kerr, head coach of the Golden State Warriors, reflected on his tumultuous relationship with Draymond Green, acknowledging a significant strain caused by Green's altercation with former teammate Jordan Poole. The incident, which occurred during a practice on October 5, 2022, involved Green punching Poole, marking a critical low point for the team and leading to a challenging season. Kerr expressed that while he and Green share a competitive spirit, Green's behavioral issues have created friction, including multiple suspensions for unacceptable conduct. Despite these challenges, Kerr recognizes Green's essential role in the team's past successes, having contributed to four NBA championships. In discussing the fallout from the Poole incident, he emphasized it served as a vital lesson for Green about the impact of his actions, which Kerr described as the angriest moment of his coaching career. The Warriors are now poised to begin a new season, hoping Green's defensive skills will be pivotal for recovery after a disappointing previous year.
