Warriors say Year 2 in offensive system will be even better

Warriors say Year 2 in offensive system will be even better The theme of the Warriors’ training camp was “getting to the next level,” and the proof that the players had advanced to the next peak might have revealed itself during a scrimmage Thursday. Knowing that they might be setting the stage for a sloppy session, the Warriors’ coaches didn’t call offensive sets and wouldn’t let the players do it, either. The players were allowed only to read and react to the defense and feed off the continuity they had built during the first year in head coach Steve Kerr’s offensive system. “We just know how to play together,” center Andrew Bogut said Saturday after training camp closed. The Warriors ranked first or second in 12 key categories, including nabbing the top spot in points per game (110.0), field-goal percentage (47.8), three-point percentage (39.8) and assists per game (27.4). In their second season under Kerr, the Warriors expect to make a colossal jump — similar to what Atlanta did last season in its second go-around with head coach Mike Budenholzer. The Hawks’ offensive philosophies are similar to those of the Warriors, and last year, Atlanta leaped from 15th to sixth in offensive rating, from 13th to fourth in field-goal percentage, from 13th to second in three-point percentage and from seventh to third in assist-to-turnover ratio. Going into the playoffs and the Finals was still in our first year in the system, point guard Stephen Curry said.
