Walton’s early success boosts Kerr’s career record

Even if he hasn’t spent one moment coaching the Warriors during a game this season, Steve Kerr’s career record had improved from 67-15 (.817) to 71-15 (.826) entering Wednesday night’s game against the Clippers.

[...] any wins or losses on interim coach Luke Walton’s watch actually show up on Kerr’s record, per the NBA office.

Kerr remains involved in the day-to-day operation as he recovers from two offseason back surgeries.

Kerr watches home games from the locker room, then meets with Walton and the rest of the coaching staff at halftime, before they address the players.

Kerr himself spoke to the players at halftime of the season-opening win over New Orleans.

[...] it sounds like Kerr is trying to strike a balance between staying involved and letting Walton run the show from opening tipoff to final buzzer.



[...] when Kerr does return, then the media will never talk to Walton again?
