Steve Kerr had an awesomely sarcastic response to claims that past teams could beat Warriors

Published Jun. 9, 2017 3:14 p.m. ET

The Warriors are on the verge of finishing this NBA Playoffs 16-0 and entering the discussion for best team in postseason history. Still, some former legends believe that their past teams were better.

Magic Johnson (1980s Lakers), Julius Erving (1983 Sixers)  and Rasheed Wallace (2004 Pistons) all have recently said they think their teams could have taken down the 2017 Golden State Warriors.

Ahead of Friday's Game 4 in Cleveland, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr gave an excellent (and very sarcastic) response to those claims.

“They’re all right,” Kerr said at Friday’s shootaround, via NBA.com. “They would all kill us. The game gets worse as time goes on. Players are less talented than they used to be. The guys in the '50s would’ve destroyed everybody. It’s weird how human evolution goes in reverse in sports. Players get weaker, smaller, less skilled. I don’t know. I can’t explain it."
