C'mon now, Klay is more than just a shooter. At the same time, he doesn't have the complete offensive skills of Harden and doesn't carry his team each and each game.
I don't think anyone gets as hot as Klay does in the NBA, for an extended amount of time. Curry can for 3-5 minute periods but Klay can go off for a full quarter, much less a whole half or 3 full quarters. Of course the Warriors feed him as well as any team because if he had to legit create shots for himself, it wouldn't happen. But still, he gets molten hot for the longest stretches of time.
yeah, when Paul George has to guard Durant and Jeff Teague is guarding Curry, who's left to guard Klay? Freakin' Monta Ellis. Klay benefits a lot from going against subpar defenders every night. Really great shooter, but would be nowhere as good as a 1st option.
So impressive. 60 points in 29 minutes. Draymond and Curry both have double figure assists. I hope he tries to go for 80.
hate this argument...Its time our board gives Klay some credit. He really is a great shooting guard. While he may not be able to carry a team individually, the Warriors are in a position to really utilize his prolific shooting prowess.
Is it true or not? If you know anything about Monta's defense, this really is no surprise. I already said Klay is a great shooter, but if he was a 1st option, he would have been smothered like hell by the best defenders from the opposing team, but since he plays for GSW with other 2 superstars that rarely happens even when he gets hot. That's a lot of luxury right there.
They had Paul George trying to guard Klay. When Klay is hot, you can triple team him and he won't even notice. Have you ever watch Klay when he's hot? He gets the ball and just shoot without even looking at the basket
anyone's unguardable when they're hot. That's not the point. The point is if he was to face the best defenders from the opposing team every single night, his numbers will not be nearly as good, and even nights like this, he could've gone 40 instead of 60.
The Warriors are ****ing insane... 2 MVPs, another 2 All NBA/ All star players. They have 3 players that can go off for 40 any given night. Klay was having a sub par season shooting wise but man this dude is super dangerous, as he just showed today. The only way to beat this team is to pray all 3 guys have an off game but then they still have Green. It's so rare when these ****ers lose that it becomes a front page story on ESPN.
just admire you're a Klay and Harden hater. Go back to your Lin posts. Hater . If you can't admire this guy is a great shooter and saying he's getting his # because he's guarded by Monta, you're a hater And you didn't even watch the game!!! You're the same hater that is saying Harden is averaging 12 assists because he's playing in Mike D's system. Go troll on your Lin fan account
Yea, I concur. I was responsing to the hater that said Klay only guard 60 because he was guarded by Monta all night(the same guy that admitted to not watching the game). He's the same guy that say Harden 's # is only because of Mike D's system. Hater refuse to recognize greatness
yeah a great shooter who just shot 4/20 against the Rockets. my ass. Klay is the most inconsistent player of all time, when he's hot he's hot, but you're basically rolling dice with his shots, and that's mostly against easy defenders as I've already mentioned. Was an absolute disaster in the past two finals also.
LOL. You just proved yourself as a hater. 1 bad game out of 5 game. despite a horrible game against the Rockets, he's still averaging: 29 points, 50% FG, 49% from 3's his last 5 games. One bad game in 5 sure makes he a lucky and streaky player. Isn't there some Jeremy Lin post you should go make???
and that's with playing alongside other 2 superstars against sh!tty defenders. not impressed. was playing like **** in the beginning of the season and will play like **** in the near future. inconsistent as hell. and how did Klay do in the last two finals? during the most important games? care to eleborate his stats in the finals? lulz
