Kerr gets discredited so often as a coach but they would not be as successful without the motion/triangle offense hybrid he implemented. The year before he was hired, the Warriors ran an iso/PNR offense that was dead last in made passes and in his first year, they were ranked #1 in assists, points, and #2 in offensive rating. Dude is underrated if anything
@@cluezybluez it's similar to the arguments used against Phil Jackson where his detractors say anybody could win with all that talent. But you still need a coach who can manage egos and can get the most out their players.
@yourfavoritepizzaboy - It still goes back to having the right kinds of players on your team who believes in the system they are being coached to adjust their skills to. The Bulls' teams trusted each other and the system no matter if they were up by 20 or down by 20. 1 rouge player on the floor can and will disrupt the remaining 4, causing, to include the other players on the bench who might find themselves on the court with that 1 person later on. The only time Jordan purposely went off system was when there was an obvious breakdown in the play or if he waived off a play because he had something to prove to an opposing player. But if you have a player like Jordan who has the capacity to do that, and the team still wins, you can sometimes overlook it. The Laker's players did not have that type of confidence in Kobe, and Lebron has always been in a "what have you done for me lately" in the minds of his teammates.
Kerr implemented a great system that allowed Steph to become MVP, Klay and Draymond to be All-Stars. A beautiful team basketball with a good defense. I think people started to underrate him when they acquired KD, which kind of changed their ball movement system to a little more iso oriented. In the end a great coach and person. Love little Stevie :)
@cloudykai it's a Michael Jordan reference when he shoot 6 3s in a half in 1992 Finals, Dennis Rodman has the same celebration as him when he make a basic Jumpshot which is not his main way of scoring and very rare for him
“ I’m not buying that..... get up “. Got to love the way the game was officiated back in the 90s By the way, funny how the Triangle is getting so much love and praise now but when Phil Jackson tried to get the Knicks to play it, Youngsters didn’t wanna hear about it. The disrespect 11 rings
Jordan felt the same way it Limits star players touches. But mike knew to win a ring he needed to conform and respect the coach . Also to find out it is super efficient
Because the classic triangle was no longer working for how the modern defensive rules and offensive scoring had changed. The triangle is only getting love because Bulls fever is running high right now.
@@anthonynorman7545 actually Warriors do run some triangle. Triangle is pretty much like a motion offense anyway. I recommend checking out some videos. Teams do still run some variant of triangle offense today, you just need to be smart about it and not be tunnel vision.
@@baka825 Phil wasn't incorporating aspects of the triangle in a broader motion philosophy like Stevens, Kerr, or Pop do. He was trying to run his classic triangle. Phil wasn't growing with the game.
Kerr is one of those 90s guys who were tiny, don't look like much and to be honest wasn't much, but was as tough as they come. In one play in this series (i think in this game), he sets a screen for Kukoc and Malone, who was guarding Toni, comes over and just knocks him off his feet, crashing onto the ground. Kerr gets up, shakes off the fact that he got man-handled by a dude twice his size, and goes to play defense. No fuss, no crying to the ref. Keep in mind this was the guy who annoyed Mike so much in the practice that MJ ended up punching him, after which Jordan respected him enough to set him up for the last shot. Kerr may have been small, didn't really have a lot of talent, but that guy had the heart of a champion.
3:17 Casual basketball fans say Jordan wasn't a great passer because he didn't rack up assists, but real fans know Jordan had that vision to take advantage of his gravity.
The impressive thing about Jordan is he never forced his dominance... He allowed the game to come naturally to him and because he understood all the elements of the game he knew where to be and when to be there. That's one thing Kobe failed to learn from the man whose game he studied.
@@kevinhu3515 mj was mad at Phil and tex winters because they took the ball out his hands. Doug Collins didn't even start scottie until the playoffs and that was an accident cause he got desperate. He was not a good coach when it came to that team. That team had some good players with Woodridge and George Garvin
@@reddrumm5618 Yet another pretend to know-it-all trying to tell revisionist history? I asked you who Jordan's teammates were before Phil jackson took over the reigns as head coach of the Bulls, you were able to only come up with two names in those 4 seasons: Orlando Woolridge and George Gervin. Thank you for inadvertently proving my point!!! May I remind you that Jordan was only teammates with Woolridge for his rookie season. In his second year in the league, MJ missed most of the season due to a foot injury and was barely on the court with Woolridge. By Jordan's third season Woolridge was no longer on the Bull's roster. George Gervin was at the end of his career when he joined the Bulls at the tender age of 35. In his first season and only season as a Chicago Bull, Gervin average 16 points per game. Again, that was the season when Jordan got injured, so they were barely on the court together. At the end of that season, Gervin retired at the age of 36. So, I will ask you again, who are Jordan's stellar teammates, that he could count on on offense, and should have passed the ball to before Phil Jackson took over the reigns.
2:00 Look how much contact there is between Jeff Hornacek and Michael Jordan. None of that is called, it isn't until Hornacek leaves his feet and is falling onto MJ that he gets the whistle. This kind of tough, scrappy defense would be a foul under the modern rules, and that's why the modern NBA game is unwatchable to me. Players these days may as well be playing horse.
Aaron Long don’t watch it. I respect your opinion tho, but you don’t have to complain about it, the league is still competitive and safety always comes first for players.
anthony smith yes it’s true. Not everything will stay the same. However it’s still a beauty to see long shots and bombs with those visions and accuracy. If you still live in the past then just watch filmed and documentaries.
@anthony smith - That is true in the NBA and all major sports. The selling point to keep in paying fans in the stands is how will teams score points with MLB being homeruns.
@I know that Dubin - The "beauty" is lost when your habitually riding the bench players come in, jacks up and lands a few 3pts attempts. The same holds true in baseball when your catcher who bats .205 or even your pitcher batting 9th are considered "homerun" threats due to the juicing of baseballs.
I love how Michael isn't calling for the ball and after Dennis shoots, he's getting back on defense instead of staring at it. If you were lucky enough to watch mj live in the 90s, the thing that would surprise you most is how seamlessly he worked within the team. Sometimes you couldn't pick him out from the other players. That's not something you see in LeBron.
Totally agree. Sometimes he would have the quietest 30 points. He would run straight to that pinch post to do his damage.He might have one or two highlights, but mostly a total efficient game.
this is the one Detail I enjoyed uniquely on the triangle offense - Kerr is showing us specifically moments when the triangle motion and spacing disintegrates against Utah's great defense (they're able to get to those 1v2 defensive situations) and Michael has to bailout to Pippen in the corner or Rodman has to pull up and it's not an easy pass/shoot situation. Shows that you need a great team that is willing to play the game instead of going to their bag all the time because when Michael finally gets into his bag, it's totally out of expectations for what the offense is supposed to look like from the tape.
that was awesome. i never would have even noticed things like the ref waiving off the "charge". wish it was longer though. i feel like i could watch this all day with a former player who is now a top-ranked coach analyzing the game. I would LOVE to see Kerr and Sloan analyzing these games together but I doubt Sloan would do it.
Some Facts: During this time 1998 Bulls Championship run, Manny Pacquiao was already a WBC Champion. Fast forward 2020 he is still an active Boxing Champion. 4 Decades 90s, 2000s, 2010s and 2020s
Respect to Kerr for giving credits and also mocking himself at the end. I am a fan of Stockton and Malone, so I really thought Kerr would diss Utah on their plays
I like Steve Kerr saying that he loves the basketball in 90's the he takes that charged and the ref doesn't buy that "get up". The referee and player is not so soft as today's NBA.
That and1 play by MJ is a perfect example of how tough the defense then was, defender’s hands were all on him. Today’s defense cannot even compare. Too soft man.
Mark Jackson's Warriors were a complete mess on offense, if real Warriors fans took notice. Yes they improved on defense but the 3pt revolution happened under Kerr
Well, to be really honest: while watching basketball games I definitely AINT recognize such plays and the tactic behind these plays... the triangle is something that can be obvious, but some of these plays are level 3.0
I know people love the flashy plays and watching the superstars, but to me, there’s nothing better than watching an entire team who buys into their system.
Romans 10:9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.ddd
MJ faced a lot of creampuff guards in big games (ainge, ehlo, Horacek, Skiles, Majerle, etc). Also no zone defense which left these creampuffs on MJ 1v1 for entire series/big games
There was one game, can't remember the year or who they were playing against, but by the end of the 1st quarter, Rodman actually had more points than Jordan and Scottie. I believed Rodman scored 2 back to back 3pts from the corner, missing another, scored a point off of a rebound, and a few points from the line, and you could clearly see before the start of the 2nd Jordan was pissed. The rest of the game Rodman stopped hogging the scene.
Dennis Rodman jumpshot off 53 Action Set Play. 😀😀😀 That should be Anthony Davis. Lakers should use this with Danny Green in Steve Kerr's spot = Lebron James in Michael Jordan's spot, Side Pick & Roll.
It was a foul though. That just happens when a moving large dude hit a smaller dude unlike that last clip where Kerr bated for an offensive foul but the ref didn't give it to him.
I don't think there were as much brain as warriors had had when they were in the middle of their championship runs in which players were moving within a more dynamic pattern, what I saw was more physicality and grittiness
They had no depth on the bench in 98, Jordan had to play around 45 minutes a game that whole season because of it while having a broken knuckle & a dislocated index finger in his shooting hand
Yeah. Imagine Pip missed 38 games, Rodman missed some, and also Kukoc... And a 35 year old MJ had to carry them to 62 wins. It clearly showed in that game 6 how great MJ was when it came down crunch time... He played for 43 minutes and scored 45. The rest of the team scored 33.
Both teams running on fumes at this point, as shown by their offensive woes. I will never understand the triangle. I know that it's good spacing though.
With the triangle players had to move offball. Remember the last time you see LeBron, Harden, Westbrook making a cut ? offball, they just wait and are useless...
@ 3:06 Mike was ALWAYS doing this. Passing as a LAST resort. He may be the GOAT, but if it's close I'll take the pass-first player with that is one size category up... and it's close!
I don't want a PASSive player in dying minutes. The more confident a player is the more he is attracting the defense. That's why passing must only be a last resort than no attempt at all.
@@JowanaBueser Better than the Wizards were doing when Mike was this far into his career. No one is winning the championship while Russell Westbrook is getting major minutes. NO ONE!
Im going to leave it here, 1998 was touted as bulls vs the overhyped lakers final. People say lakers beat bulls in regular season but then again, its regular season. A loss doesnt put bulls lower in their eastern table placement. Yeah yeah yeah so kobe torched mike and pippen, big whoop, jazz swept lakers 4-0 . Too easy. And bulls beat jazz. In a hard fought battle. If anyone thinks that bulls lakers final would favour lakers, think again. Lakers had to call in Phil jackson to win a 3 peat. Even so, the lakers battled easy eastern opponents for their 3 peat. The hype that jazz brought in 97 and 98 was real, that team was a menace. You cant stop malone from scoring and you cant stop stockton from his assist to the team. By the time bulls were gone, jazz were gone too, they were as old as bulls. They entered the finals as old and experienced team. Would bulls win 4th if they stayed one more year? NO. 3 takes a toll on mike. Look at pippen, with the bad back, he would not be ready for 4th.(50 games) Rodman got worse by the day, his age caught up to him, you can see it in his Lakers stint .
people forget Rodman could actually score.... he just didn't really needs to cuz the Bulls got the GOAT and bunch of shooters that could knock down shots.
TV's goal is for you to tune in so their ratings are up. Stephen A, Skip, Max are on TV because they are good at hyping and sensationalizing the content. Even Shannon Sharpe who played professional sports himself is following the script. Again, for people to watch their show so the ratings are up
I think in 98 jazz screwed up. Hornacek was good but defense wise was a bad matchup vs bulls. He was too small and slow to guard MJ or Pippen. Stockton can't guard them cus he wud of gotten in foul trouble . He could only guard Harper. Jazz should of started Morris and Shandan Anderson over Hornacek and had Hornacek as a 6th man to guard Kerr when he was in the game.
Kerr gets discredited so often as a coach but they would not be as successful without the motion/triangle offense hybrid he implemented. The year before he was hired, the Warriors ran an iso/PNR offense that was dead last in made passes and in his first year, they were ranked #1 in assists, points, and #2 in offensive rating.

can we have Steve break down one of the golden state warriors games on a coach perspective.

Its so many fouls in this breakdown its ridiculous
KingLeo80 Facts
It's the hand-check era and especially it's the finals.
It’s just good physical basketball... not the flopfest today
This guy should be a coach imo
Pippen there did a catch and drive. Most players today would’ve been stepping back to the corner 3 while catching.. meh.. I guess Ray Allen would too
because they allow zone defense now ... someone is always waiting for you to come in
I wonder if Kerr believes his current team(GSW) could beat this Bulls team he was on if both played in there primes
We referees like that around when, James harden plays
dark eclipse Harden will be crying lol
Harden would still get his calls
Jordan hits 6 three-pointers in a single half against Portland in 1992 🤷. Rodman hits one 20-footer against the Jazz in 1998. 🤷
He was the bulls version of draymond 😂
Rodman would go out his way not to score so him even taking that shot is a shock
There was one game, can't remember the year or who they were playing against, but by the end of the 1st quarter, Rodman actually had more points than Jordan and Scottie. I believed Rodman scored 2 back to back 3pts from the corner, missing another, scored a point off of a rebound, and a few points from the line, and you could clearly see before the start of the 2nd Jordan was pissed.
The rest of the game Rodman stopped hogging the scene.
The Rodman shrug lol
At 2:50, how is that not a traveling violation?
That's the first time I was actually able to see the triangle function. everybody else's drawings explanations confuse the s*** out of me.
You see Rodman push Malone into Kerr to draw the foul?

Is this supposed to be a Post Malone diss? 🤣
This was real basketball. Look how hard players had to work to score points compared to todays nba
So, the Bulls 97/98 were clearly the worse Jordan team. And they still won the championship.
Not when you have the Goat on your team MJ
They had no depth on the bench in 98, Jordan had to play around 45 minutes a game that whole season because of it while having a broken knuckle & a dislocated index finger in his shooting hand
Yeah. Imagine Pip missed 38 games, Rodman missed some, and also Kukoc... And a 35 year old MJ had to carry them to 62 wins. It clearly showed in that game 6 how great MJ was when it came down crunch time... He played for 43 minutes and scored 45. The rest of the team scored 33.
Rodman's shrug game
Both teams running on fumes at this point, as shown by their offensive woes. I will never understand the triangle. I know that it's good spacing though.
Thank god Kerr didnt take the Knicks job Phil offered him.
Bring back Rodman!
I don’t think Phil wants Rodman shooting outside.
With the triangle players had to move offball.
Remember the last time you see LeBron, Harden, Westbrook making a cut ? offball, they just wait and are useless...
@ 3:06 Mike was ALWAYS doing this. Passing as a LAST resort. He may be the GOAT, but if it's close I'll take the pass-first player with that is one size category up... and it's close!
I don't want a PASSive player in dying minutes. The more confident a player is the more he is attracting the defense. That's why passing must only be a last resort than no attempt at all.
Shareef Taylor and you’ll probably win 3 championships in a decade, as opposed to 6...
How's the pass-first player and his team doing nowadays?
How's the pass-first player and his team doing nowadays?
@@JowanaBueser Better than the Wizards were doing when Mike was this far into his career. No one is winning the championship while Russell Westbrook is getting major minutes. NO ONE!
lol rodman actually does look like beefed up thugga no cap
Im going to leave it here,
1998 was touted as bulls vs the overhyped lakers final. People say lakers beat bulls in regular season but then again, its regular season. A loss doesnt put bulls lower in their eastern table placement. Yeah yeah yeah so kobe torched mike and pippen, big whoop, jazz swept lakers 4-0 . Too easy.
And bulls beat jazz. In a hard fought battle. If anyone thinks that bulls lakers final would favour lakers, think again. Lakers had to call in Phil jackson to win a 3 peat. Even so, the lakers battled easy eastern opponents for their 3 peat. The hype that jazz brought in 97 and 98 was real, that team was a menace. You cant stop malone from scoring and you cant stop stockton from his assist to the team. By the time bulls were gone, jazz were gone too, they were as old as bulls. They entered the finals as old and experienced team. Would bulls win 4th if they stayed one more year? NO. 3 takes a toll on mike. Look at pippen, with the bad back, he would not be ready for 4th.(50 games) Rodman got worse by the day, his age caught up to him, you can see it in his Lakers stint .
kareem detail pls
Who will be the next Michael Jordan🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄?
He died unfortunately in a helicopter accident.
people forget Rodman could actually score.... he just didn't really needs to cuz the Bulls got the GOAT and bunch of shooters that could knock down shots.
Stephen A, Skip Bayless, Max Kellerman could never do this.
I mean to be fair Kerr was in the game so it’s slightly easier to know what you’re doing lol
Gopinath Karunanithi I mean Steven A actually played college ball so..
TV's goal is for you to tune in so their ratings are up. Stephen A, Skip, Max are on TV because they are good at hyping and sensationalizing the content. Even Shannon Sharpe who played professional sports himself is following the script. Again, for people to watch their show so the ratings are up
Hey ESPN. Why don't y'all interview Jordan himself?
Karl Malone swore had they had Rony Seikely they would have beat the Bulls
when steve kerr flopped i came right to the comments 😂
MJ was a master wasn't he?
I think in 98 jazz screwed up. Hornacek was good but defense wise was a bad matchup vs bulls. He was too small and slow to guard MJ or Pippen. Stockton can't guard them cus he wud of gotten in foul trouble . He could only guard Harper. Jazz should of started Morris and Shandan Anderson over Hornacek and had Hornacek as a 6th man to guard Kerr when he was in the game.
