Go look at what he did to Tony Parker tonight. Look at what he did to CP3. If you're not a good 3pt shooter like Harden he's placing clamps on you.

1 of you non believers go look up Russy's stats when Klay defended him at Oracle earlier this season. Klay held him to 10 pts and 3-16 from the field.

Holding Westbrook under 40% 1 time in 6 tries makes Klay a lockdown defender now?:usure:

Klay wasn't guarding him 11-18-2012. And he didn't defend him much as a rookie. His defense wasn't good as a rookie. Right now his defense is top notch. He's no Tony Allen but he's an upper tier defender.
