If you consider yourself a true Taylor Swift fan but missed the fact that Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr was weaving her lyrics into his press conferences for an entire NBA season, you might want to brush up on your Swiftie credentials.

ESPN's Wright Thompson recently published an in-depth profile on the legendary coach, revealing that Kerr, who was reportedly considering retirement to join the media world, ultimately decided to return for his 13th season with the Warriors. Among the many fascinating insights into his decision-making process is a delightful hidden gem: three seasons ago, Kerr secretly incorporated Taylor Swift lyrics into his post-game press conferences—all for his own amusement.

According to Thompson, the 60-year-old coach used phrases from Swift's iconic song "All Too Well" during his interview answers, and he did it so seamlessly that nobody noticed. For example, after a win against the Rockets in March 2023, Kerr opened with, "I walked through the door of the locker room at halftime," perfectly matching the song's opening line. Over the course of the long season, he worked through most of the lyrics, crossing them off one by one as he went.

Kerr's son, Matthew, later compiled the clips into a video for the family group chat, cleverly editing them so it appeared his dad had recited the entire song. The story gets even better: Swift herself reportedly got wind of the video and asked if she could share it on social media. Kerr, however, politely asked her team to keep it private.

Now that the secret is out, fans are hoping the video might finally see the light of day. After all, it's a perfect blend of basketball brilliance and pop culture fandom—a reminder that even the most decorated coaches know how to have a little fun behind the mic.
