Los Angeles Clippers coach and president Doc Rivers supports Kevin Durant’s right to play for the Golden State Warriors. But that doesn’t mean he has to like the idea.

It seems Tyronn Lue waxing respect for the Boston Celtics has offended the Golden State Warriors. At the very least, acting Warriors head coach Mike Brown has taken stock of it.

Steve Kerr is out indefinitely while tending to his recurring back problems. Though this doesn’t technically mean he’s done for the season, the Golden State Warriors are moving forward as such. From CSN Bay Area’s Monte Poole: “The way we look at it is, plan on him not coming back,” Draymond Green said after practice [...]
Joe Ingles just earned himself a max contract. According to ESPN.com’s Chris Haynes, the Golden State Warriors preferred to play the Los Angeles Clippers over the Utah Jazz in the second round, not because they felt Lob City was the easier opponent (they are), but because Hollywood’s night life is much better than that of [...]
