Kerr: “World champion from the NBA or the World? Both of them!”

THE Steve Kerr admitted that Team USA found it dark against Montenegro until they took it win (85-73).

Montenegro was fantastic, they are a well coached team, they had a good plan and the players executed it very well. We weren’t good today in attack, we didn’t move the ball well and that’s why we messed up. However, despite these difficulties we found a way to win and that makes me happy. These games are tough, FIBA ​​matches are different. Montenegro played hard and tried to drop the tempo, but my players stayed focused, even if it wasn’t a pretty display“, the USA coach emphasized.

For me, every game is an opportunity to learn something, whether it’s in the NBA or FIBA, especially next to such good partners, coaches who are among the best in the world, but also with this group of players. A game like this helps you get better more than say a 40 point win“, he added.

Finally, regarding the debate about whether the NBA champions are entitled to be considered world champions, Steve Kerr was asked if he considers himself a world champion when he takes the NBA championship, or if Team USA wins the Worlds. The Warriors coach’s response was “Both!».
