The Golden State Warriors will see a familiar face at the helm of the Sacramento Kings during the playoffs. Yes, it will be an epic duel between Steve Kerr and Mike Brown.
Prior to landing the head coaching job with the Sacramento Kings, Mike Brown was a member of Steve Kerr’s coaching staff for six years. Kerr talked about facing off against his former colleague ahead of the Warriors vs. Kings playoffs series.
“We texted when the matchups came out,” Kerr said, according to The Spun. “I think everybody in our building feels so happy for Mike, what he did for us while he was here, and how much he contributed to our championships and culture. It was just a great, great partnership.”
Kerr revealed that the entire Warriors organization is happy for Brown and what he has done in his first year as the head coach of the Kings.
The Kings clinched the third seed in the Western Conference with a 48-34 record under the leadership of Brown. They have finally managed to end their 16-year drought of missing the playoffs. But can they take on the defending champions of the league in the first round of the postseason? Only time will tell.
Steve Kerr Is Undefeated Against Western Conference Teams In The Playoffs
Steve Kerr became the head coach of the Warriors in the 2014-15 NBA season. Since then, the Dubs have been to six NBA Finals and won four of them.
Most expect Kerr to have an incredible record against teams in the West. But Kerr has surpassed all expectations as a head coach because he is undefeated against Western Conference teams in the postseason.
Yes, that’s correct. He has lost just twice against teams in the West, and both of those defeats were in the 2021 play-in tournament. Can Mike Brown become the first coach to get the better of Kerr in the playoffs? We will have to wait and find out.
