Steve Kerr, head coach of the Golden State Warriors, anticipates a hostile reception from Boston Celtics fans due to his decision to limit Jayson Tatum's playing time during the 2024 Paris Olympics. Tatum, who had a stellar season leading the Celtics to an NBA championship, played just 71 minutes in the Olympics, prompting backlash from Celtics supporters. Kerr defended his choices, citing a 'math problem' with a stacked roster and praised Tatum for handling the situation well. Despite leading Team USA to gold, Kerr expects fans to criticize him when the Warriors visit TD Garden on November 6. As Kerr prepares for the upcoming NBA season, he acknowledges he will face scrutiny from the loyal Celtics fanbase, especially if the Warriors struggle in the Western Conference. The rivalry between Kerr and Celtics fans continues to evolve since he previously defeated Boston in the 2022 Finals.
