Bob Myers: There Was No Joy In Warriors' 2018 NBA Title
Bob Myers and Steve Kerr said they could both relate to The Last Dance, and discussed how exhausted they were after the Golden State Warriors won the 2018 NBA title.
\"The second time with Kevin [in 2018] it felt like, \'Well, we just did what we were supposed to do, and great job. It wasn\'t joy. I\'m sure a lot of people felt differently. It wasn\'t anybody\'s fault. I think there\'s just a weight to everything. And so I\'m sure [the Bulls] felt that weight of everything, weight of relationships,\" said Myers.
The Warriors swept the Cavs in the NBA Finals as the team won its third title in four years.
\"To be honest, [the documentary] is just confirmation of what I was saying to our team all of last year and 2018. The whole messaging for the year was based on my experience with Chicago and feeling that level of fatigue [and] emotional toll that had been over the previous four years,\" added Kerr.
Myers added that maintaining positive relationships was the most difficult aspect of that season.
\"Winning and doing it all together is really hard. And maintaining relationships is hard. ... There\'s a lot more ways for it to come apart than keep it together.\"
