    He's showing exactly the productvity that was expected by anybody that paid attention. He's a mediocre defensive player, and has even less scoring ability than he did in GS.

    He certainly can still knock down a shot, but that's it. There will always be a job for shooters, but he's just a role player now and he's getting paid role player money. He's isn't making some big impact.

    Imagine signing in Dallas SOLELY due to Luka Doncic and how easy he'd make your basketball life.

    If I was Klay Thompson, I'd be PISSED.

    I’d finally respect this guy if he demands a trade and really wish he would. Same with Kyrie. I’d do it if I were in their shoes.

    There's nothing that clown could do that would garner any respect, and shame on you for even saying that.

    The Robins.

    Kyrie a Robin to Lebron's Batman, and in his later years a robin to KD (Nets), and to Luka (mavs). He couldn't cut it as a #1 on the Celtics.
    AD, a #2 to Lebron in the LAL run. Couldn't as a #1 in New Orleans.
    Klay a #2 to Step.

    Nico assembled a team of #2's.



    On paper, the team fits and will be solid in the short term.

    1x1x1=1
    2x2x2=8

    Nico is shooting for the 8th seed. Do the math. :D

    Megan is a great looking but she doesn't seem like she will age well, seems the type to balloon after kids.

    I think his type is simply whoever is attractive.

    Probably would have gotten with a Margot Robbie look alike or young Vivica A. Fox impersonator if that were the case.

    That she would b better suited to Zion Williamson and Luguentz Dort....than One Leg Captain Klay.

    It is just an interesting choice as Draya and Jalen Green minus the Age difference.

    His exes are pretty much skinny women Size Zeroes and Stallion is obviously curvy.

    He changed from featherweight to mid to under heavy weight class just like that.

    Between those 3 I would definitely pick Klay if I was a woman.
