Steve Kerr credited Stephen Curry as the key reason for his longevity as Golden State Warriors head coach, comparing the relationship to Gregg Popovich and Tim Duncan.<\/p>\n

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr has made it clear just how much Stephen Curry has meant to his time in charge of the team.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m well aware that the reason I\u2019m still here is because Steph Curry is still here,\u201d Kerr said on a recent episode of the Glue Guys Podcast.<\/p>\n

Kerr went deeper on the topic, drawing a comparison to how Gregg Popovich credits Tim Duncan for his legendary Spurs run.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd I\u2019m not being modest, I\u2019m just telling the truth. Gregg Popovich is one of my best friends and mentors, and every time we sit down for dinner, he holds up his wine glass and he says, \u2018Here\u2019s to Tim Duncan.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd everyone toasts to Tim Duncan. I love it because it\u2019s genuine and he\u2019s basically telling us the only reason I \u2014 and we \u2014 are all here is because the lottery fell our way, we got Tim Duncan. Other people didn\u2019t. That\u2019s how I feel about Steph.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kerr\u2019s remarks come as the Warriors gear up for the 2025\u201326 season after a year of roster changes and another deep playoff push.<\/p>\n

Golden State secured a postseason berth through the play-in tournament, then advanced past the first round before falling in the conference semifinals.<\/p>\n

\n

Since Kerr took over in 2014, Curry has been the team\u2019s foundation. His elite shooting and playmaking have driven Golden State\u2019s success through multiple lineup shifts and big coaching calls.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The past season brought major changes, including the departure of long-time teammate Klay Thompson and the midseason trade for Jimmy Butler. Even with the turnover, Curry\u2019s leadership kept the Warriors in the playoff hunt.<\/p>\n
