Klay defensive performance was more impressive than KD 6 dunks in lane bc nikkas was chasin Steph.

If he keep putting clamps on like that, he don't even need to shoot out this slump...his impact was felt.

i don't get why ppl so quick to get Klay outta town. Warriors brass should ride this group as long as possible. Don't do like the Bulls and prematurely end ya dynasty.

Klay need to come to Philly where he can get all the touches he wants :shaq:

:what: THAT HAPPENED 2 TIMES...
AND KD HAD 8 DIMES...

BRON COULD HAVE STILL CHALLENGED THAT DUNK
INSTEAD OF GIVING UP ON THE PLAY
AND DROPPING HIS SHOULDERS
BEFORE KD EVEN CROSSED THE 3P LINE.

HE BLEW BY BRON TWICE FOR DUNKS
AND SHOOK BRON OUT HIS SHOES
FOR AN ALLEY OOP.

WTF DO YOU nikkaS BE WATCHING?
:devil:
:evil:

Cavs 1-12 when guarded by klay in game 1



:whoo:

called this shyt
your mans @GoddamnyamanProf thought kevin love would be able to dismantle the warriors in the post :mjlol:
i like this revisionist history about kevin loves post game like he's a savant on the low block or something
he's at his best when his 3 is falling
he can work on the block....but he's not abusing anyone in the post off a switch thats not stephen curry :manny:

Durant or Draymond will be racking up the fouls if they let him go to work. Whether those fouls are actually called is another matter, of course.

Low Quality Posting
Klay is the second best player on the Warriors after KD. Draymond is number 3.

Looks like we have a Curry stan as one of the mods. How you gon call this post low quality posting? This is the god honest truth and I got facts to back me up.

KD, Klay, and Draymond are all 2-way players. Curry on the other hand is a liability defensively who has to get hid on the worst perimeter scorer. Klay should be guarding 2s but because Curry is so terrible as a defender he always has to cross-match with the opposing teams 1s. Put Klay and Draymond in any era under any system and they can thrive. Curry can only work on a 3-point shooting team like Golden State in this era. And he can only succeed with having a guy like Klay taking up all the tough defensive matchups against the elite PGs in this league. Steph Curry is a gimmick player who hides from his defensive responsibilities.

There is nothing "low quality" about my post. Its the TRUTH.

Honestly its embarrassing he's even thought of as an elite player.
usually give you the benefit of the doubt but ...

He's a force of nature, a true master of his craft :wow:
I thought my brother was going to hold the crown for worst sports take I'd ever hear with "Brady isn't going to lose the game for you, but he's not a franchise quarterback that can put the team on his back and carry you to victory. Just an above average quarterback" in January 2015, but swag gets worse with ever post he makes :scust:
