The Golden State Warriors lost their second game of the season on Wednesday night, as they fell to the Dallas Mavericks with a shorthanded roster. Stephen Curry was one of several players that didn't suit up in the game, and it truly is not much of a cause for concern. Despite the loss, the Warriors received some potentially good news after the game as it was revealed that Steve Kerr may return to coaching the team as soon as this weekend, according to Tim MacMahon of ESPN Dallas. 

Kerr has yet to coach a game this season, as he has dealt with back issues after undergoing surgery in the offseason. Kerr has been working his way back, though, as he has been around the team more often and even ran a practice recently. Interim head coach Luke Walton has done an excellent job running the team with Kerr out, but everyone knows it's Kerr's job and they hope he is back as soon as possible. 

"It's obviously a possibility, he hasn't said he's going to," said Walton. "To be honest, I don't think he knows yet. I think that's part of why he's on this road trip, to see how his body handles the travel and getting into Houston at 1 a.m. tonight to turn around and play again then get on another plane and fly home and get in late again. So that's part of why he's here on this trip, whether or not this weekend is a realistic return or not."

As Walton mentioned, Kerr is with the team on its current two-game road trip which has taken it to Dallas and Houston to test out how he feels. This is the first multi-game road trip Kerr has gone on this season, and if he feels good enough after it he will likely return. Kerr has no intentions of returning to coach just the home games, so he wants to make sure that when he returns he will be back full-time.

Despite the fact that he hasn't coached a single game this season, Kerr is still getting credit for all of the Warriors' wins. The NBA doesn't credit interim coaches with wins, so although Walton was named Western Conference coach of the month for November, Kerr has added 29 wins so far this season to his resume without so much as calling a single play. Not a bad gig.
