Steve Kerr fuels Warriors fans: “LeBron James? We got him”
Steve Kerr has reignited Warriors fans’ dreams with a surprising response about LeBron James. Was it simply a joke or a hint about the future of the four-time NBA champion?
The future of LeBron James remains one of the hottest topics of the NBA offseason. The four-time NBA champion has yet to decide the next chapter of his career and, while speculation continues to grow about a possible return to Cleveland or Miami, another fascinating scenario remains alive: seeing him wear a Golden State Warriors jersey.
For weeks, in fact, the Warriors have been linked to the King, mainly because of the dream scenario that would bring together two of the greatest players in basketball history: LeBron James and Stephen Curry.
Steve Kerr fuels LeBron James-Warriors rumors
The excitement among Warriors fans grew even more after a video went viral on social media. The clip features Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr, who was approached by a fan while he was out on the street.
The fan wasted no time sharing his wish with the coach:
We need to get LeBron, man
Warriors fan
Kerr’s response immediately sent the Warriors community into a frenzy:
Oh we got him. Put that on Twitter
Steve Kerr
Of course, there is currently no official confirmation of any agreement between LeBron James and the Golden State Warriors. There has been no announcement, no report from NBA insiders, and no official news confirming the blockbuster move.
Kerr’s comment could simply have been a joke, a way to play along with the fan’s excitement and quickly end the conversation.
At the same time, however, the fact that LeBron remains without a team and that speculation about a potential move to Golden State continues to grow keeps alive a scenario that, just a few months ago, seemed almost impossible.
Stephen Curry and LeBron James together: will it remain just a dream?
The idea of Stephen Curry and LeBron James playing on the same team would represent one of the most incredible moments in recent NBA history. Two players who have dominated the last decade of American basketball could join forces in an attempt to chase one final championship.
For now, it remains only a dream, but the NBA has proven time and time again that almost anything can happen. And after Steve Kerr’s words, Warriors fans certainly have one more reason to keep believing.
