For some reason I can't post links.

Anyway, Steve Kerr has been harping on his team to play with more focus over the past month. For the first time they had a back to back loss, they're 2-8 vs. HOU, OKC & Boston. Not to mention losing to both the Lakers and Sacramento. The past 4 weeks the Warriors go down by double digits in the 1st quarter and have to but their asses to eek out a 10 point win. They are averaging almost 25 turnovers a game. In a nutshell, the Warriors are bored with the mid season. Therefore their focus is off and they're playing lazy. OKC should've been a wake up call as they got their asses absolutely handed to them at home.

Anyways, to try something different Kerr basically got tired of harping the same message so he told the guys to coach themselves at every time out vs. Phoenix on Monday.
Draymond, Iguadala and David West took care of the timemouts, ran plays and basically took over duties. Warriors won by 45 and led wire to wire.

the NBA is besides themselves. They're saying the Dubs are disrespecting the league. Charles Barkley and Chris Webber are saying Phoenix should've flagrant fouled the Warriors all night. Saying, "no way would I let a team disrespect us like that" Talk shows are up in arms saying who do they think they are??

Personally I don't see a problem. Kerr was just trying to throw a curve ball to the players as they've obviously tuned him out this past month. He wasn't disrespecting The Suns and told Phoenix coach after the game he didn't mean to show them up.

What's your thoughts?
