      Truly a golden moment. As a bay native despite the “rivalry” I hope the kings get to experience the same. The league has been run by Lakers/Celtics and to see a team who hasn’t won in 40+ years suddenly become a dynasty was peak sports for me growing up. It’s still insane to look back on. Happy to say I got to see them in 2017 before Oracle Arena was no longer a thing.

      Which is why people need STFU about him being finished. Dude may not be able to defend like he used to, but he can still catch and shoot. He's not had great shooting this season, but there's no telling. He might come off the bench and hit 6 straight 3s... or miss 6 straight 3s. Maybe he's not a starter anymore, but he can still be an exciting role player for another few seasons.

He had scored so seamlessly that game, I remember it gave me whiplash when I looked up at the scoreboard. Make no mistake, Klay had one of the greatest primes EVER! And it flew under the radar because he played next to Steph Curry. Name another player who suffered TWO career ending injuries and came back to win another title? That determination and tenaciousness is a testament to his spirit! The people will never forget why you're so special! Happy birthday!

    Just looking at this video, you can see just how different his form is to how it is now. he can't get his legs under him anymore and there are some games where they're really really bad - to the point that his form completely changes because his arms over compensate.
    Klay WAS a traditional jumpshooter, and an occasional set shooter. being forced to flip that because of injuries and not having enough leg strength when having to switch back to the occasional jumpshot killed his percentages.
    Surprisingly, last year was his "best year" after a horrendous start. That means Klay can still be Klay in solid stretches but he can only go as far as his legs can take him. if his legs are, simply put, SHOT, then he has to rework his jumper from the ground up (which I doubt he will given his pride on his jumper). if he keeps trying to shoot this way with bad legs, they're just gonna be flat no matter how much backspin he puts on the ball.

    Prime Klay was insane. Prime Klay could literally fit on any of the 30 NBA Teams because he could shoot the shit out of the ball and also play fantastic defense. His defense got compromised after the 2 horrible injuries and his shot selection got worse because the 2 seasons he was out he developed a solid handle. Klay developing a handle ended doing more damage because he would now start taking impossible degree of difficulty shots with 20 seconds left on the shot clock. He’s still a solid player.

    He is the second best shooter of all time and I hope he ends up being a Warrior for life. I really don't want him to get traded, I believe that he'll pick it up and be more efficient and play great again.

    Klay is my player when I think of the Warriors dynasty because I suffered a serious nerve injury around the same time as Klay went down in 2019. Klay's recovery was really motivating for me at a time when taking a step meant every muscle burned and walking over a short distance seemed like a marathon. My full recovery coincided with his return game, so I was hyped when Klay became another motivator to the Warriors on their way to getting the sweetest of rings.

    Klay in his age right now should still be in his prime.. I can't say its because of his injuries, because his not the athletic type that can affect him too much his a shooting star.. i guess the real factor was the game was progressing rapidly.. anyone now can almost shoot the ball like they did and the teams have also adjusted to the way gsw plays.. they're like an open book now that's why it's affecting his performance.

      this is simply just not true. players have become better shooter but at the same time we can't just gloss over that complete lie you just told. he had two of the worst injuries you can have as a player, we see all the time that no one quite recovers the same after that. plenty of examples kobe, d rose, greg oden, etc... list goes on

      @okkinsama2930 Před 2 měsíci

      @@kalenmarshall8692 i agree that he had the worst injuries sir, but kobe can still shoot. That's why I'm telling sir, kobe lost his athleticism because of injury but still had the ability to score. Klay is not as athletic as kobe he is purely a one or two dribble sharp shooter more likely to catch and shoot type of player, one thing affected klay because of injuries is his defense.. because klay may not be as athletic as kobe but his defense is superb in his early years.. and because of that he became one of the missing link in their defense that's why kerr had to bench him and he lost his confidence affecting his shooting skills.
