Klay needs to go lead his own team somewhere. He mentally checked out that Spurs situation....Curry looked uncomfortable bein relegated to the 2nd option because of Durant nd Klay really looks like a deer in headlights as that 3rd option. Similar to the Harden situation in Houston. Klay doesn't look happy to be out there at all in that 3rd option role. Mind u..even Draymond gets more pub than Klay. Klay outta there when the time comes...:ehh:
this 100 percent

Klay is basically what y'all think steph is. he doesn't rebound, he can't pass, he's not a dynamic scorer all he does is catch and shoot...he makes no more of a difference than kyle korver in cleveland

:wow: this is a sports forum that people actually fix they fingers to type shyt like this and then hit "post reply" :wow:

He's a souped up role player. The ultimate 3&D guy in the league. I personally think he takes up all-star spots considering how many % of his baskets are assisted. Felt the same way about Korver being an all-star before one of you dikk riding fakkits comes at me about that shyt.

Klay could never have his own team. Disappears too much, not a versatile scorer. He's good where he is.

IMO its hard to really tell how good any of them are as individuals because of each other. you have the two best pure shooters in the league on the same team. i dont know how good they would be without the spacing the other provides.

They would both still be great, but I think this situation is clearly the best one for them to be dominant and I think you can say that about Dray and AI as well.

If he was on his own as the leader of a team he would probably average 25 a night but his team would probably be a mid-tier type team at best. He would have to have just the right fit to thrive which is why he is better as a 2nd/3rd option.
