After fishing their second consecutive victory on Sunday night, Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said that the star-studded team is "frustrated" and "not clicking," the latest NBA news revealed.
The Warriors scored a close 106-100 win over the Phoenix Suns at the Talking Stick Resort Arena to improve the team's record to two wins in three games played this week. However, the last season's Coach of the Year winner admitted that his players were frustrated with how slowly everything is coming along during the game.

"We were frustrated in the first half," the 51-year-old coach said after the match. "You guys can all see it. This is not coming easily."
"We have a new team and a lot of different faces, but even for the returning guys, it's a different mix." he added.
According to Fox Sports, the Warriors defeated two ballclubs that were considered to be less-competitive teams after suffering an embarrassing 29-point margin loss in the hands of the Western Conference powerhouse San Antonio Spurs in the season-opener last Tuesday night.
Kevin Durant joined the Warriors in July this year leading to a much higher expectations on the team, who already has three NBA All-Stars in their lineup (Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green).
While the victories may come against lesser opponents, the Warriors' bench boss admits that the full potential of his team is still far away from what it could actually give.
"We're not clicking and everybody can see that," Kerr said.
Last season, the Warriors made headlines as it kicked off the 2015-2016 season by winning their first 24 matches and went on breaking long-standing records of the league.
The Dubs became the only team in the NBA to win 73 matches in 82 scheduled regular season games, eclipsing the previous record that the 1995-96 Michael Jordan-led Chicago Bulls made which is 72-10.
With the new season just on its first week, it still remains to be seen how the Warriors will figure its way in living up to the expectation of the basketball world.
