So basically the idea was that aside from the defense and shooting there wasn’t much else Klay was bringing to the table but his shooting is legend status as opposed to Jimmy who is a scorer, defender, has better handles, and can create.
Better fit next to Steph: Jimmy or Klay?

It's Klay just because having Draymond means you can get away with a lot more "missing" elements to being a successful team.
If Dray isn't there, Steph/Jimmy is a going to do a lot more damage. Having 2 great shooters isn't as impactful when the playmaking, defense, and game control suffer so much.

The only right answer for this one, is Klay.
All-time and currently, if he stayed.

Skillset for skillset it's still Klay it's very close tho.
Having a secondary sniper who might just be the second best 3 point shooter of all time and a top 3 off the ball player of all time that was 95% the defender Jimmy was just opened the game up so much for that team.
Steph + Jimmy is still a great combo, but I don't see a 73 win Steph + Jimmy team. The offensive ceiling isn't there to just have stretches where you're blowing the lids off teams for weeks.
But OTOH Jimmy woulda dogged it out in 2016. I see hat Warriors team winning 68 games instead of 73 but Jimmy is not about to let Bron ho his team like he did to the Warriors in 2016 and I think they win there with Jimmy instead of Klay.

Stupid question. Klay is washed now so no point asking about his Skillset.
Let's see Jimmy actually win with Steph first before crowning him.
I'm a huge Jimmy fan and I'd love to see him win a chip more than any other player ( apart from Russ)
