“He is (Curry) like Tim Duncan in San Antonio (Spurs), Michael Jordan in Chicago (Bullen),” said Kerr about the Timberwolves after the Warriors' 99-88 victory. “None of this happens without Steph. And everyone knows that. The entire team understands that.”

“We will absolutely rely on Jimmy (Butler) as we have when Steph was off the ground in the past few months. We basically led everything through Jimmy at these moments, so he will take on more responsibility. But we can't just rely on him.”
