So is Klay Thompson legit or not

[GetInTheTruck]

He needs to leave golden state, he already has a ring, let him try to go carve out his own legacy if he's worthy of one...It's kind of hard to tell now especially after they added KD.

 

[AITheAnswerAI]

He's a glorified Danny Green

Speaks to how great Curry is that he carried him to 2 finals

That's ridiculous. Klay makes way more of an impact than Danny "literally all I can do it catch and shoot" Green.

I think he should go to the clippers. They need a better 2 guard, Klay loves LA, the Lakers have their guards, plus Klay wouldn't be chasing his father tryna be a laker. He'd make a bigger impact on the clips too. Do it Doc.

 

[KingJay]

idk, let him come to Philly and see what happens

Fultz
Klay
Simmons
Saric
Embiid

or

Fultz
Klay
Covington
Simmons
Embiid
6th man Saric

Put him on the Bobcats and he'll average 25+ ppg for the season .

nikkas really calling Klay a souped up Danny Green

 

[NV-ME]

that game 5 or 6 against okc last year erased alot of klay's big game failure history. it was an incredible performance, but doesnt negate how he almost seems like he's point shaving at times. the closeout game against the rockets 2 years ago is a good example. he's shielded by steph's shortcomings, but if he's a star he gotta get fried for shyt like this and games in the finals where he hasnt shown up when it counts. nigg@ had 6 points, last night...and it aint a big deal. cool.

 

[CP3_da_OG]

People keep calling this dude a great defender? shyt is laughable.

People confuse actually playing some semblance of defense with being a good/great defender.

The fact that literally no guards play defense anymore inflates this perception of his defense.

nikka is probably the streakiest shooter in NBA history.

He's good, but that's about it

 

[Mack de la Rocha]

he's legit but he needs to learn how to have impact on games if his shot is not falling

Son got a key block, assist and contested every shot he could coming down the stretch. Getting stops is extremely important in tight games.

Plus, even on an off-night, he stretches the floor. Distorting the defense is important af when the playoff clamps come out.

There's a reason he's out there.

 

[FcKuPaYmE]

Gotta work on his game with the ball in his hand if he want his own team otherwise he gone be that #2 or #3 option.

 

[SuaveHooper88]

guy has too many games where he goes ghost.

Every blue moon he has a 40 pt game then goes back to casper status.

Is this dude just a role player in reality?

he is legit, blame Durant for stunting his development of turning into a complete player.

This could of been Klays MAJOR breakout year, had durant not tried to force himself into golden state legacy

 

[SuaveHooper88]

He's a second/third option depending on the situation way to inconsistent to even think about being a number 1. If the Warriors had Harrison instead of KD there's no way they would have ever came back.

you idiot. IF golden state had the same team from last year they would of never of been down 25+ points

Also if Golden State didnt INTENTIONALLY injure Kawhi they would of never came back to win

 

[Jplaya2023]

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

i bet cleveland would drive korver to the airport if GS ever offered klay for him straight up

Klay is a great secondary player, we don't know if he can lead a franchise yet. But if he's your 2nd or 3rd best player you're a title contender

 

[supertrekker]

He's as legit as the goatee he wears that he bought at Party City.

Damn dude

 

[Basaglia]

Klay gotta be the most "plotting on some get back" player i've seen since kevin johnson. Y'all slept. He proved to be good and y'all so mad you can never let it go. Every bad game is a referendum on his actual worth as a player. all-nba, champ, all-d...damn, y'all salty.
