Kerr To Curry | "Stop Trying To Do It By Yourself"

In an article posted at at Yahoo by , head coach Steve Kerr talks about Steph Curry's need to allow the game to come to him.  He said that Curry sometimes wants to win so bad that he tries to do too much.
The desire to win sometimes conflicts with knowing how to win, especially for our best players.  They want to win so bad, that they think that they need to 'take over.'  It can be a challenge getting them to understand the need to and understand how to allow the game to come to them.
Below are some quotes from the article:
"I never worry about his confidence," Kerr told Yahoo Sports late Monday. "I don't worry about anything with him. I just feel like there are times that he wants so badly to win, he tries to do too much.
"He's still learning. That sounds crazy, because he's the MVP of the league. But he's still learning how to develop that rhythm, how to be patient and just move the ball, makes the easy pass – instead of trying to do it himself. That way, he's much more likely to get hot in the game."
"He has as much self-belief as anybody I've ever seen," Kerr told Yahoo Sports. "He's still learning about the rhythm it takes. It's not an easy concept for a guy who is so talented and relied upon so heavily. That's all part of the growth, the process and tonight he got that, stayed with it and executed it."
