quest for a 4th title in 5 years. i don't think our guys should feel a ton of pressure. i think they should feel the importance of trying to do it again, because this may be the last time we have this current iteration of the warriors, just given all the free agents and the money crunch and everything else. so we don't know what's going to happen. so why not just go all out and enjoy every step of the way?""it does feel that good to be the champs and to have all that comes with it and do it with guys that you like playing basketball with and like playing for from a coaching staff perspective, too. nothing lasts forever in this league, but we've always said we want to keep this going as long as we can, and we're right in the thick of it." "i could have easily signed a long-term deal or i could have -- but i just wanted to take it a season by season and see where it takes me, and i think this whole year is going to be a fun, exciting year for us all, and i'm looking forward to just focusing on that, and we'll see what happens after the year.""i've been in the gym working with jordan and damian so far, and those guys are full of potential. they're like sponges. they take in all the information they can. they're a big part of this team. they're carrying the load right now, so of course i'm going to give everything i can to help them."
