As the Golden State Warriors continue to prove themselves to be one of the best teams in NBA history, past players are coming out and rushing to defend their era by saying they could have beaten the present Warriors. Well Steve Kerr had the perfect response to all of them.
Talking with the media, the Warriors head coach offered the following sarcastic response:

Look, it’s indisputable that LeBron James is one of the greatest players of all time. Even him playing at an extremely high level isn’t enough to beat these Warriors, and he has two All-Stars around him in Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love. Isn’t that enough proof of how good Golden State is? They have two MVPs in their prime, plus two other All-Stars in their prime in the lineup. They’ve gone 15-0 so far in the playoffs. They set the record for best regular season record last year, and then added Kevin Durant.
Whether it’s Magic Johnson talking about his “Showtime” Lakers or Julius Erving talking about his 76ers, the legends are wrong when it comes to beating these Warriors. But what else would you expect them to say?
