Steve Kerr is ready for the regular season.
The Warriors coach was ejected in the third quarter of Monday's 117-109 preseason loss to the Suns for arguing with referee Ben Taylor after Stephen Curry was called for an offensive foul, the sixth assessed to Golden State in the game.

Curry was given a technical foul and Kerr was seen telling the referees, "I don't want to be here anyway."
Kerr admitted after the game that he walked into the floor with the intention of being tossed.
"Yes," he said, via ESPN. "I was trying to make a point and I was trying to back up my guys. We had all these offensive fouls, one after another. And I finally had enough.
"I was in the wrong, obviously. I got what I deserved."
The Warriors will close out the preseason with back-to-back games against LeBron James and the Lakers on Wednesday and Friday.
