WATCH: Draymond Green & Steve Kerr Express their Frustration as Warriors are Shook by Thunder

After a decade of dominance in NBA, Golden State warriors have started  the 2019/20 season with two disappointing losses. After a 141-122 los against Los Angeles Laker on the opening night, the Warriors were in for a bigger shock on Sunday as they lost 120-92 to Oklahoma City Thunder.

Warriors manager Steve Kerr, who on the opening night’s loss said this being the new reality, talked about developing the players now to get back to winning ways.

“This is not easy,” Kerr was quoted as saying by ESPN. “What we did the last five years was not easy, but there’s a reason it worked. We had a lot of talent. We had a lot of guys who are really, really smart basketball players, so the whole point is to bring these young guys along, help them get better every day and form a team and develop an identity so we can start winning some games.”

Sunday’s loss also led to frustration from the Warriors All-Stars Stephen Curry and Draymond Green.

“I would like to see us play harder,” Green said. “That will help a little bit, but the reality is we f—ing suck right now. And hopefully we’ll get better. We’ll continue working at it and try to get better, but we’re just not that good right now. I don’t know what better way to frame that for you. I could try it in Spanish, but I ain’t really that good in Spanish. That’s really the best way I could tell it to you right now.”

When asked at what point he would start to worry if the younger players continue to struggle defensively, Green said that it wasn’t his role to make decisions about the roster.

“That’s not really my job,” he said. “My job is to go out there and play and try to help lead, and I haven’t done a great job of that. So I got to be better in my area. But I’m not the guy to make decisions and say, ‘They’re just not getting it.’ It’s two games. It sucks, and I know everybody’s used to seeing us win. I’m for damn sure not used to losing like this. But we’re not giving up on anyone after two games. Nor are we giving up on ourselves — although we do suck. I did say that. That’s true. We’re not giving up on ourselves. Got another game tomorrow. Try to figure more out then.”

During the match, 23-year old D’Angelo Russell got tossed for the first time in NBA. Talking about the incident, Kerr said: “No, there’s frustration all around,” Kerr said. “I get frustrated with officials, and I can’t lecture anybody on keeping composure. That would be ironic. Stuff happens.”
