USA Basketball head coach Steve Kerr addressed his team's performance against Germany
USA Basketball is has wrapped up their Showcase Games in preparation for the Paris Olympic Games. After a one-point victory against South Sudan on Saturday, Team USA defeated Germany by a final score of 92-88 on Monday. It was another close contest for Team USA, as Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James was able to dominate down the stretch to pull out a victory.
Speaking with reporters after the game, Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr, who is the head coach for Team USA, shared an honest criticism of his team at this stage in their development: “We can get a lot better,” Kerr admitted. “We’re getting to a place now where we’re getting comfortable with rotations… But we can do a lot of things better. I thought our passing was not great tonight. They put a lot of defensive pressure on us, and we turned it over a few times. We can tighten up our game and get better.
Turnovers were an issue in this game for Team USA, as they finished with 13 giveaways to Germany’s seven. This is part of what Kerr is referencing about the passing, but it is one of the things that should improve as Team USA gets more experience as a group.As Kerr also mentioned, he believes Team USA is starting to finalize their rotations, which is also important entering the Olympics.
