Kerr speaks about how important his assistant coaches are in keeping communication active. He says that a lot of the time his assistant coaches will talk directly with the players, as the have a different perspective than he does and it is common for players to go to assistant coaches with issues. This helps to keep and improve communication amongst his team, which is a key element in coaching—Kerr states that once personal connections are lost, it is harder to coach players.
