Are the Golden State Warriors legit? A threat to win a title? Best record in the NBA currently at 17-2. Haven't really been following the NBA closely this year. What is your take, those who have been watching this season closely?
He was a good role player and I know he had no coaching experience.
What did he do to be so successful in his first head coaching gig?
In another thread I stated that initially I thought the Warriors were making a mistake replacing Mark Jackson with Kerr. But after the great start the Dubs have gotten off to, that doesnt appear to be the case. But in all fairness to Mark Jackson, Kerr inherited a team that had been in the playoffs the last two years. So everything that Jackson "built" was already in place. Much easier job than taking over a team that is in dissaray which is usually the case and common when a new coach is hired.
They have a very impressive roster on paper, especially considering that David Lee has only played 1 game (hamstring) but is expected to return sometime this week

I will say they no longer have that "playground" style of basketball which means they will be tough to beat

They appear more disciplined and pride themselves in good defense.
