This is the transcript of a real conversation I had with Fake Steve Kerr. It was great to hear him with his guard down, firing off the cuff, and this is in no way completely fictional.
Q1. Why did you play Anderson Varejao in freaking Game 7 of the 2016 Finals?
Okay, first of all, we coaches make 10 decisions a minute in a game. Who to play, what call to make, what coverage to change. We’re going to get a lot of these wrong. We just do the best we can, and we get paid the big bucks to answer all your second-guessing questions.
