Warriors coach Steve Kerr is in his Taylor Swift era.

Or, he was a few years ago, at least.

In a lengthy ESPN feature about the 60-year-old published Thursday, writer Wright Thompson shared how Kerr subtly referenced the pop singer throughout the course of the 2022-23 NBA season. The result? An end-of-year compilation of clips featuring the coach narrating her song, “All Too Well.”

“Three years ago, to entertain himself in his press conferences, Steve worked phrases from Swift’s song ‘All Too Well’ into his interview answers, smoothly enough that nobody noticed,” Thompson wrote. “For instance, to get the first line of the song, he took the podium after beating the Rockets in March of 2023 and said, ‘I walked through the door of the locker room at halftime.’

“Over a long season he got most of the lyrics done, crossing them off as he went. His son Matthew later edited them into a video for their family group chat, so that Kerr appeared to have recited the whole song.”

While the video never has been made public, Thompson shared that Swift eventually saw it through a mutual friend and found it “creative and funny.”

“Can I put it on social media?” she asked, according to Thompson.

But Kerr asked that it remain private, but it only should be a matter of time before Warriors and Taylor Swift fans alike comb through the postgame footage to make a video of their own.

We’re just wondering how the Warriors coach was able to weave, “But you keep my old scarf, from that very first week” into a press conference.

Your move, Swifties.
