The Golden State Warriors are facing difficulties in the 2024-25 NBA season. Following their 114-98 loss to the Miami Heat, the Warriors are in 10th place in the Western Conference standings. Amid this situation, head coach Steve Kerr sparked discussion by making a strong statement regarding Stephen Curry and the team’s confidence.
During a recent press conference, Kerr stated that the Warriors are experiencing a “crisis of confidence.” He emphasized that missed shots do not concern him unless they impact the team’s defense and attitude. When asked about Curry, he mentioned, “He is struggling with the emotion of (the team) not being competitive right now.”
Kerr’s remarks regarding Curry have generated considerable discussion among NBA fans. Anthony Slater recently posted a segment of Kerr’s comments on X (formerly Twitter), which elicited a wide range of responses from the audience. While some fans expressed disapproval concerning Kerr’s candid statements in the comment section, others highlighted significant concerns pertaining to the current state of the Warriors. Several fans also expressed their support for Curry.

Mr. @Stevekerr, the current problem that the @Warriors have is THE DEFENSE that allows the rival team to feel comfortable and score without difficulty, especially the 3-point shot defense!

If @Warriors' defense improves, the victories will come in a streak!!
Demand and train…
You know what gives a team confidence. Taller players. Bigger guys. Big lineups. @StephenCurry30 @Money23Green those legs aren’t young and elite anymore. Now it’s time to shift and play with bigger guys. Make em hustle harder

Stephen Curry Discusses Warriors’ Recent Defeat Against The Heat
During the recent matchup against the Heat, Curry delivered a strong performance, scoring 31 points and securing seven rebounds. However, despite this effort, the Warriors concluded the game with a final score of 98-114. Moreover, in the post-game press conference, Curry reflected on the outcome and the team’s overall performance.
“Just pissed off. You’re trying to figure it out. Everybody in the locker room is kind of searching a little bit. Trying to understand what’s going wrong. Why we can’t get off to better starts. Moments in the game where you’re clawing back and you can’t get consecutive stops. Bad possessions on offense that affect our confidence and body language and the vibe,” Curry said.

Following their latest defeat, the Warriors now have a record of 18 wins and 18 losses. Disappointment was evident after the game, especially as fans noticed Curry’s visibly frustrated expression. The Warriors are scheduled to face the Detroit Pistons next at Little Caesars Arena.
