Steve Kerr on Chris Paul offensive fit: 'We're going to lean into him and he's going to lean into us, and we'll meet halfway'
“We’re going to run plenty of pick-and-roll because Chris [Paul] is one of the best pick-and-roll players in the world,” Kerr said. “But he’s also showing he’s very interested in incorporating some of the stuff we already do — our split cut game and our movement. He’s such a smart player that he’s already figured out ways to be effective. We’re going to lean into him and he’s going to lean into us, and we’ll meet halfway and the offense will form.”

Steve Kerr on Klay Thompson in smaller lineups: “He’s so physically strong. He’s so used to guarding post-up players after switches. We think Klay can guard as a four this year. We’ll put him in coverage where he has to defend pick-and-roll as a four.” theathletic.com/4927260/2023/1… – 8:41 PM

“We’re thinking Klay can guard as a 4 this year.”
The Warriors’ preseason opener will be about more than just Chris Paul starting nbcsportsbayarea.com/nba/golden-sta… – 7:08 PM

Steph Curry and Chris Paul went through over an hour long post-practice workout led by Bruce Fraser.
Steph typically goes through this routine alone. There was more coaching and breaks in between spots than usual.
The two seem very intentional about developing that chemistry pic.twitter.com/nKsEx89u5u – 6:10 PM
