Kerr, who has remained on the sideline for an extended period of time due to complications from a previous back surgery, returned to the Warriors' practice facility over the weekend while attending the team's Saturday practice. "I'll get back healthy".
After the game, Stephen Curry acknowledged the importance of Kerr's presence and the value of his message at halftime. "All right? Settle in and we will be alright". He also was with the squad in practice for the first time in more than three weeks. So for him to even just have the energy and ability to be here means a lot.
Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich, who talks to Kerr regularly, spoke about Kerr's recent health struggle.
"It's not me versus Pop", Brown said after his team roared back from a 25-point deficit to win 113-11.
Despite the extended absence of their head coach, the Warriors have yet to lose a postseason game this year. "Hopefully, he's feeling better".

"We've got to find that balance between pace and discipline", Kerr said in a clip that was broadcast by ABC.
They got to hear from Kerr in this one, when things were not looking great, and then Brown went out and coached the Warriors through that furious rally, some rough moments in the fourth quarter, and to a 1-0 series lead.
