The Golden State Warriors were in a bind with the Spurs. Popovich’s team wasn’t going to make this a breeze. San Antonio started hot but failed to continue the momentum going forward. And the result was a victory for the Warriors with a 118-112 score. Kerr, on the other hand, seems to be in an unusually great mood lately.

From the insane half-court shot hours before the Spurs game to the latest, the Dubs’ head coach is going viral. The latest in the series is his hilarious antics during the challenge in-game.

After issuing the challenge, we can hear Kerr saying, “I know I’m gonna lose, but I’m going to challenge it anyway.” He’s always been a confident man. Except this time, the challenge produced a completely unexpected outcome.

The replay showed that the foul called on Saric was uncalled for. This came as a major shock for everyone. Especially given that, since the start of the season, the Dub Nation has been on the wrong side of the officiating refs. But this time, the coach’s challenge gave Coach Kerr a pleasant and welcome surprise.

Whether this will continue is up for debate. But the Warriors are not going to look a gift horse in the mouth, for now. Steve Kerr and his warriors are known to keep tabs on everything. With Green‘s suspension and even CP3 getting ejected, the in-season tournament has been unforgiving.

A look at foul-filled Golden State Warriors of this season

Tonight’s win was like the oasis in the desert for the Golden State. Struggling with a lot of aspects this season, the Warriors, with tonight’s victory, have eight wins in the 17 games they have played. Not the best record, but a win is a win, especially when it’s hard-earned.

VIDEO: Steve Kerr Scores Insane Underarm Half-Court Shot Hours Before Warriors vs Spurs

The Suns’ matchup was probably the worst game for them. Green was missing, Paul got ejected, Curry was struggling to get the ball rolling, and the rest of the team was trailing. So, it’s no wonder that there will be mixed feelings and frustrations bubbling up.

Prior to the suspension, Green was the regular target for technical fouls. An unbelievable incident was the retroactive foul vs the Cavaliers. No one seems to be able to wrap their head around the dynamics of how this call was legal. Anyway, it all led to Green’s five-game suspension for getting physical with Rudy Gobert.

Though this game also had a few calls, this is the first time a call worked in favor of the Golden State Warriors. And the result was a very amusing and hysterical reaction from Kerr. Netizens are not going to let Kerr easy on this.
