McKale Center "Steeeeve Kerrrrr"
Anyone who remembers Steve's college career would remember the announcer and crowd shouting out the drawn out "Steeeeve Kerrrrrrrr" whenever he scored in McKale Center.

http://azstarnet.com/news/local/article_e85cd80e-196f-5cfe-87be-e605fcaf0c11.html The man who first elicited the famous "Steeeeve Kerrrrr" echo after the UA basketball player made a three-point shot in a November 1985 game died Thursday afternoon from pulmonary fibrosis. He was 79.

Roger Sedlmayr was the public address announcer at University of Arizona basketball games at McKale Center from 1978 to 1996

General manager position with the Suns
Steve Kerr did not replace Mike D'Antoni as GM of the Suns, D'Antoni was the coach. The GM that was replaced at this time was Bryan Colangelo who had left to become GM of the Toronto Raptors at this time:

Johnny Kerr
Is there any need to mention that he is not related to Johnny Kerr? Aside from being both good and white in the modern era, Steve won three championships with the Bulls, an organization with which Johnny is closely associated. Johnny Kerr was also responsible for bringing Sloan (as a player) to the Bulls, against whom Steve had the game and series winning shot in Sloan's first Finals appearance as coach. It just seems like the kind of thing that warrants mention, like how Jeana Yeager is not related to Chuck Yeager.

Steps
What does "two steps slower" mean? Speed is measured in distance per time. --NaBUru38 (talk) 11:02, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true.

Personal Life
This article lacks of details of Kerr's personal life and I see it as a trouble. Leo Bonilla (talk) 08:16, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

Revolvers cannot be silenced. The gap between the cylinder and barrel releases gases and pressure resulting in part of the noise from a revolver. Only pistols (semi-automatic handguns) can be silenced. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.190.22.1 (talk) 17:34, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

The use of the phrase "surprising election victory" in this section seems biased in favor of Trump supporters. Also, Kerr generally criticizes the president for his policies and tweets, not for winning the election. 174.86.164.77 (talk) 20:01, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

It says that he described the BLM protests as "peaceful" when we all know that is not the case and that they were violent. Are you sure those are his current views?van Lustig (talk) 20:17, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

"Kerr and Saul are also the only two players in NBA history to have won two championships with two different teams in consecutive seasons." is no longer accurate. Patrick McCaw won a championship with the Golden State Warriors, then recently won a consecutive championship with the Toronto Raptors. 142.112.210.101 (talk) 16:30, 4 July 2019 (UTC)

Needs more sources
The article needs more sources and has been tagged accordingly. SunCrow (talk) 05:45, 8 July 2019 (UTC)

McCaw
McCaw didn't achieve the same feat. He won two in a row with the Warriors and then one with the Raptors. The feat mentioned is 2 wins with 2 different teams each, consecutively. So 4 wins total. McCaw has 3. Coolsharkymd (talk) 19:31, 22 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I can understand the confusion but the article is correct. One sentence is about Kerr and Saul winning four consecutive championships. The other sentence is about consecutive championships with different teams, which also applies for McCaw. It is covered in the final paragraph of this article that is used as the fact's reference.

In Steve Kerr Coaching Career section, the last but one sentence, “The Warriors returned to the playoffs in 2021–22 and reached the 2022 NBA Finals where they defated the Boston Celtics”, change “defated” to “defeated“. 104.195.143.221 (talk) 01:01, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
