Steve Kerr responds to Warriors fan about LeBron James: We got him

Warriors coach Steve Kerr might have caused the biggest buzz of the summer among NBA fans.On Wednesday, a video surfaced on social media of a Warriors fan telling Kerr the team needed to sign LeBron James.“We got him,” Kerr said.The viral video comes hours after Warriors star Steph Curry made a direct free-agent pitch to James during an appearance on “Good Morning America.”Speculation has since swirled over Golden State’s handle on the situation as some fans believe Kerr’s response hints toward the Warriors losing out on the NBA’s all-time leading scorer.

That would fall in line with ESPN insider Shams Charania’s report on the sweepstakes.Charania revealed the only suitors left on James’ list are the Cavaliers, Heat and 76ers.Other sources have said the veteran is destined to land in the Eastern Conference, labeling the once seemingly favorited Warriors as current dark horses in the race.There were plenty of reasons to believe the Warriors had as good a chance to sign James.

For one, Curry and James had undeniable chemistry during Team USA’s gold medal run at the Paris Olympics.That was also when James familiarized himself with Kerr as a head coach.However, the prospect of Curry and James teaming up once again appears to be slim.

James returning to the Cavaliers perhaps makes the most sense and ties up all loose ends in terms of his legacy.But Warriors fans can still dream of a miracle because of Kerr’s latest comments....
