Steve Kerr Appears To Throw Shade At Kevin Durant While Revealing How Much He Enjoyed Last Season, And KD Responds

Steve Kerr and the Golden State Warriors were incredibly awful last season. The team finished at an abysmal 15-50 mark, and in dead last in the Western Conference. So why would Steve Kerr say he enjoyed it more than the year they went to the championship? Many are speculating that it has something to do with Kevin Durant.

Here was the quote from Kerr earlier today.

“I enjoyed last season, when we had the worst record in the league, more than I enjoyed that last season when we went to the Finals. Last year we had young guys who were trying every day, working hard and we had a great energy, great spirit and great camaraderie.”

KD responded to the quote by saying, “this is hilarious”.
