NBA fans are piling on Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr after he openly admitted the team might already be going off track. The reaction came right after their 104-100 loss to the Houston Rockets on Wednesday, a game that pushed them back to .500.
Kerr didn’t sugarcoat anything when he spoke with reporters.
“We’re 10-10. We’re an average team,” said Kerr.

Once that quote made the rounds, NBA fans wasted no time poking fun at Golden State’s slide.
One said, “But yet Warriors fans told me they’re contenders.”
Another wrote, “At least he’s conscious about it.”
A third added, “Why would you say this about your own team?”
Sitting at 10-10 and holding the West’s 8th spot, the Warriors already had plenty to sort out. Now they have to do it without Steph Curry.
“Maybe the real system wasn’t Kerr”: NBA fans react to Steph Curry’s injury after loss to Houston
Curry’s late exit against Houston instantly shifted the tone for Golden State. ESPN’s Shams Sharania later reported that the four-time champion is expected to miss “around a week or a little more” due to a quad contusion, sparking even more chatter about how shaky the Warriors look without him.
One fan wrote, “Crazy how the Warriors built an entire ‘dynasty’ just to collapse the moment Steph sneezes. Maybe the real system wasn’t Kerr… it was Curry’s legs holding the whole franchise together.”
Another added, “Tough blow for the Warriors, but a week without Steph is survivable. They just need to stay afloat until he’s back.”
A third said, “Man, every time Curry sits even for a week, it feels like the whole NBA timeline collectively forgets how to breathe. Quad contusion or not, the Warriors without him always feel like someone unplugged the WiFi.”
Curry has already missed time this year due to illness and ankle maintenance, and now the quad issue adds another hurdle. For Kerr, it’s one more problem on top of an already complicated stretch as the Warriors try to claw their way back to form.
