#4 Stephen Curry and Steve Kerr

NBA MVP Press Conference
Warriors' duo of Steve Kerr and Stephen Curry

Teaming up coaches and players with similar playing styles seems to be a successful working phenomena in the NBA. When the Golden State Warriors finished sixth in the Western Conference in 2014 and were ousted in the first round of the playoffs, Steve Kerr was brought in as the head coach replacing Mark Jackson. The rest, as they say, is history.

The very next year, Warriors won the NBA championship and Curry was named Most Valuable Player. After that, it was just mayhem once the Warriors took the court. Another MVP for Curry, another championship, you name it.

All of this wasn't just a matter of luck or chance. Before Kerr, Curry was the best shooter in the league. After Kerr, Curry was the best player in the league. He has diversified his game in innumerable ways. Kerr was that last piece of the puzzle.
