After Game 1 loss, Kerr understands Warriors fans' anxieties

OAKLAND -– In the hours since Monday night, Warriors fans have lived between hope and angst, faith and worry. The skies suddenly darkened after their team lost Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals at Oracle Arena.

Warriors coach Steve Kerr knows your pain, and he hopes it’s temporary.

“Our fans care desperately, which is great, so that’s a part of it,” Kerr said Wednesday, two hours before Game 2. “The elation of winning doesn’t come without the despair of losing. It’s all part of it. So when you struggle and you get down and, there’s a sense out there that people are anxious or whatever, that’s just being a sports fan.
