    I have been looking for every angle to hate on this guy, but he just plays the game the right way. Every time he scores the basket, I can't find fault in how he scored the basket. The only thing I hate is how the refs give him super-star treatment in the playoffs. But even the fouls against him are legit.

    Please, can someone give me a legit reason to hate on this guy so I can go back to being normal again (other than the fact that he plays for the other team)?

    Eh, give Kay Thompson 5 steps and the ability to shove at will and people will think Klay is the next MJ.

    1) Travels nearly every play

    2) Pushes off nearly every other play

    But hey...the refs have deemed him one of the Golden Boys. He can do no wrong.

    The pushoffs are pretty annoying, but he's damn good.

    We had the chance to draft him.

    I don't like him or dislike him. I think he's a damn good player, but his offensive game is ugly AF IMO.

    If anything would turn me against him, it would be the constant media slurping. That's what turned me against Westbrook.

    There's no legit reason to hate on him. His game isn't flashy or pretty, but he's a great player who just plays the game without looking for attention.

    If you feel he is being overrated by people in the media, then your problem should be with the media -- not him.
