    Klay usually shoots poorly again the Rockets. 41.4% on FGs and 31% on 3s in 18 career games against us.

    Welp, with this kind of performance, looks like the Warriors might be able to keep their 4 "Stars" happy.

    Not many games in the playoffs. I cannot remember the last time we won a series against GSW in the playoffs.

    It's a credit to such a strong team. If you invest more in stopping Klay, Curry or Durant will burn you. It's not really like Kobe Bryant's 81, which he basically created himself because the rest of the team was so weak.

    When Klay KD and Curry are all on, they would destroy any team.

    Just re-watched the highlights, and what do you know, most of the damage was done against Monta's (and Indiana in general) non-existent defense just as I predicted. This is why I don't think Klay is an elite player (just elite shooter), everytime the defense gets real tight like in the NBA finals, he becomes invisible. People crap on Curry for not showing up in the finals, well Klay is worse.

    Didn't look so hot when he was playing the Rockets though.

    We're resilient, tough and we never gave up.

    Also, we have this Harden dude on the team.

    Nobody can throw the flame like Klay when he's on fire. Still 3rd fiddle doe.

    So are we All just going to ignore the fact that a good 75% of his shots were wide open lay ups and 3 pointers? He would've topped 81, but it's not as impressive as Kobes 81.

    I'm not saying its not impressive to get 60 points but come on guys, its not like the man is the #1 option playing with the likes of Chris Mihm (12 Points), Smush Parker (13 Points). Playing with the likes of Curry, KD, Iggy, and Draymond makes life really damn easy.

    What Klay needs to do is switch agents now that his stock is high and strong arm them for a new deal.
