TRANSCRIPT/COMMENTS:

00:00 Steve, how would you just overall assess the these last three weeks as preseason in general?
00:06 STEVE KERR: We've had a great preseason. We've — I think had a lot of competition. We've had every guy coming in in good shape and playing hard and playing well and playing together. And tonight, obviously, was not a fair fight, given that the Lakers sat all their guys, but it didn't take away from the way we played, how hard we played. And and so, yeah, I'm really pleased with with our progress to this point, and it'll be fun to get started for real.
00:45 Steve, you guys' first five made shots were all assisted. You had 37 assists on 51 made shots. How encouraged were you with the ball movement tonight and throughout the six games?
00:54 Yeah, it's great. And we took good care of the ball as well. And a lot of good offensive flow tonight and throughout the preseason, so I think we're getting to where we need to be, but it'll get a lot harder, obviously, once it starts for real.
01:12 About the first five-man group. Obviously, Steph's not there, Melton in his place, but those other four, we've talked about, kind of an interesting combo with Wiggins, JK. What did you see from Draymond and Trayce? What did you see from them tonight? Was it the step forward you wanted?
01:26 Yeah, I thought Melt really did a good job of kind of connecting that group and Draymond played a fantastic first half, didn't take a shot, but controlled the whole game. And I like the size and athleticism with that lineup, so it sets a good tone for us on the defensive end.
01:46 Steve, what was your message to Trayce at the end of last season and how has he looked to you over the summer and into the preseason now?
01:56 The message was keep working, keep getting better and run the floor. I mean, that's — we talk to him all the time when he sprints the floor. It's — You can feel it. And I say the same thing to JK and Wiggs. We need those guys to get out and sprint and so I think Trayce, the last three games in particular, has really been doing that. And Melt — he and Melt have a nice connection on those lob passes and, yeah, Trayce has had a good camp. It's fun watching them.
02:33 I know it's hard to take stuff away from this game in particular, but how would you evaluate the way that JK played today on both ends?
02:39 JK was good. Again, we're really pushing him to run the floor. I mean, that's his gift, his athleticism, his speed. And he has a tendency at times to kind of get into a home run trot instead of going Usain Bolt and sprinting as fast as he can. And when he does that, you feel the impact. He sprints the floor, he might get a dunk or he'll pull a defender with him. Somebody else gets an open shot because of him. So the last two games, he's run the floor harder and he's done some nice things.
03:21 And then Moody being the 11th player to touch the floor in the first half and starting the second half. What was the, decision-making, the thinking with that?
03:30 We have a whole roster full of guys who are capable of being in the rotation. I have some really difficult decisions to make Wednesday night in Portland. I — literally every guy on our roster is capable of being in the rotation, which which bodes well for the 82-game season. I think we're gonna be well-suited to play through injuries…
