'We are in crisis' - Warriors head coach Steve Kerr admits after conscutive blowout losses
Things have gone from bad to worse for the Golden State Warriors with the team suffering a 114-98 loss to the Miami Heat on Tuesday night.
This latest defeat is in stark contrast to their blistering start to the season, where they went an impressive 12-3 from their opening 15 games.
However, since that promising beginning, the Warriors have gone 6-15, and head coach Steve Kerr is searching for answers.
"I think we're suffering from a crisis of confidence right now, frankly," Kerr said, via ESPN
"You can see it. You can feel it. I don't mind missed shots, but I mind when missed shots affect the defense and the attitude. We feel deflated right now."
Steve Kerr said the Warriors are suffering from a “crisis of confidence” right now.

Kerr also questioned the Warriors' "competitive spirit" after the team was blown out by a Jimmy Butler-less Heat, just 48 hours after suffering a 30-point loss to the Sacramento Kings.
Star player Stephen Curry has also expressed concerns about the team's ability to overcome large deficits and win close games.
"We haven't shown that we can do it this year, and that's a concern," Curry said.
With the February 6 trade deadline looming, the Warriors are expected to aggressively pursue a star player in hopes of reviving their season.
