The Golden State Warriors may have won Game 3 of their NBA playoffs series against the Houston Rockets, but fans were not too happy with some of the decisions head coach Steve Kerr made during the contest.
One particular move that really irritated fans during the game came in the fourth quarter when both teams were neck and neck.
With the Warriors leading by just one point, 80-79, with 7:56 left to play, Kerr decided to pull out Steph Curry and rest him a bit.
While it's an understandable move—since Kerr probably wanted to give Curry a bit of rest to ensure that he would be present for the final stretch—fans took issue with it, considering how close the game was. Not to mention that they were without Jimmy Butler, who's nursing a pelvis contusion.

"PUT STEPH BACK IN THE GAME KERR," a commenter demanded. Another one said, "I hate how he coaches like if you don’t give that man a 2 minute break and get him back in like it was 9 minutes left it’s what 5 or 6 now he should’ve been in with 7 minutes left."
"Steph Curry was disappointed when Kerr took him, he is on a heater and you are removing him.. Kerr is sometimes funny," a fan added.
A viewer remarked, "If Kerr doesn’t put Steph back in when the timeout is over I’m gonna rip my hair out."
"Kerr playing with Fire not having Curry out there right now," a social media user stated.
A sixth supporter shared, "admin tell kerr to put curry in a one point game playoff game in the 4th qtr."
After Steph Curry returned with 6:46 left to play, he wasn't taken out again and proceeded to record six points and three assists in the remaining time to give the Warriors the 104-93 win.
The Warriors star finished with a total of 36 points, seven rebounds, nine assists, one steal and two blocks.
