Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green came to the defense of coach Steve Kerr, who was criticized by a fan on social media. The Warriors lost 99-98 to the Philadelphia 76ers on Thursday. It was the team's second straight loss, and they have dropped to 11-12.On Friday, on Threads, Green posted, "That was a fast fire and hire lol." It was unclear what the post was referring to, but some fans noted that it was about Chris Paul's sudden departure from the Los Angeles Clippers.However, one Warriors fan let Green know his thoughts about Kerr amid the Warriors' slow start this season."Bummer," the fan wrote. "I thought you were talking about Kerr. The fans deserve better. We’re tired of seeing incompetence from this coach: games thrown due in part to nonsensical rotations and favoritism towards a player who likes to throw the ball into the crowd. Curry’s final years are being wasted by Kerr. This season is no different than the last one."Green replied to the post, reminding fans that they should be grateful that Kerr is coaching Golden State."Shut up! Fans ain’t win anything before Steve brought his winning ways to the bay. Save it! You watched incompetence for many years if you a real fan. Shut the hell up and go whisper that s**t to another idiot that wants to listen." Post by @money23green View on ThreadsKerr is in his 12th season as the Warriors coach. The former NBA guard led the team to the NBA Finals in each of his first five seasons on the bench. Alongside Draymond Green and Steph Curry, they have won four championships, with the most recent one coming in 2022.Coming into the 2025-26 season, there are high expectations that Golden State could make another title run. However, the team has started slowly amid several injuries to its stars.Kerr earned flak from fans for allegedly favoring guard Brandin Podziemski, who has had an up-and-down season. Most recently, fans have called out the Warriors coach for benching Pat Spencer in the final quarter of Tuesday's 124-112 loss to the OKC Thunder.Warriors' rough stretch continues, as Draymond Green and several others are listed as out on SaturdayThe Golden State Warriors will not have their core on Saturday against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
