Most believed that the Kevin Durant injury would be the biggest obstacle to the Golden State Warriors reaching the NBA Finals for a third consecutive year entering the postseason, but now it appears an even more important piece of the puzzle will be missing for the foreseeable future.
Head coach Steve Kerr missed Game 3 due to what the team cautiously called an “illness”, but now reports suggest the bench boss will be out for at least the remainder of the first-round series with the Portland Trail Blazers.
This quote from Mercury News reporter Marcus Thompson is even scarier for the Dubs.
“At the worst of this current illness, Kerr was in excruciating pain, according to the sources, and he could barely walk. It was scary because it wasn’t a feeling he’s had before.
The worst part, the Warriors don’t yet know what is going. They had to say ‘illness’ because there are no answers yet.
Kerr hasn’t felt well all series, according to people around him, and recently it become unbearable. It is unknown if these issues are even related to his past well-known health problems.
As competitive as Kerr is, we know this: it must be pretty bad if he is missing a playoff game. He is expected to miss the remainder of this Western Conference series.
‘Oh no,’ one source said about Kerr returning this series. ‘He thinks like a player does, wanting to get back. But he’s got to get right.'”
Best wishes to coach Kerr getting back where he belongs on the Warriors’ bench.
