SACRAMENTO — Asked pregame Saturday night about the Warriors’ decision not to join a rally protesting the police killing of an unarmed black man, head coach Steve Kerr passionately defended how his team has handled its role as a leader in matters of public discourse. "I’m very confident and comfortable in my own skin," Kerr said. "And (our players), what they do for our communities, the way they speak out, the way I’ve spoken out. I feel very, very confident in what we’ve tried to do and I’m also very, very serious about my job." Kerr told players Saturday morning that they were welcome to accompany former Golden State teammate Matt Barnes at a noon protest at Cesar Chavez Park in downtown Sacramento.
