(coach of the Golden State Warriors, explaining that yes, he lied in telling the press before the crucial Game 4 that he wasn't planning any lineup changes)

"Sorry, but I don't think they hand you the trophy based on morality," Kerr said. "They give it to you if you win. So sorry about that."

(You'll note that he didn't really seem all that sorry.)
