Warriors return from China, try to get groove back

The Warriors were back home, back at their Oakland practice facility and back focusing on basketball.

But not back in rhythm.

“No. We’re all completely out of it,” coach Steve Kerr said when asked if he or his players felt fresh entering Tuesday’s practice, the first since the jetlagged Warriors arrived from their weeklong trip to China.

After squeezing in just two practices during a busy schedule overseas, Kerr had planned a scrimmage to see his players in game form - three days before the preseason finale and a week before the season opener.

But in the morning, assistant coach Ron Adams walked into Kerr’s office.
