He cooked again
ok now go get Draymond too lol
For that contract I’ll take it
How many shots you make today Klay- Luka
Holds 4 fingers up – Klay
$16 million for a great three point shooter is exactly what we needed. Klay is going to come off the bench and get us 15-18 per night on efficient shooting. Luka is about to average 15 assists per game
The second best thing about Klay might be his free throws.
mavs fixing to average 139 points a game
Oh helll yes!! I was weary about singing him for $25 mil a year but still down. But at this number, I’m all in
Anyone saying this isn’t a good pick-up is a hater. Klay is still a marksman and can play D, maybe not to the level he was able to, but he can create his own shots and doesn’t need to rely on Luka. Whether he starts or comes off the bench, Klay is going to be a problem for a lot of teams. I still think they need another big, but this is a process, and it’s still early.
who’s going to be sf in the starting lineup though?
So…. Now that we traded away Green and DJJ, who is going to defend guards on the other team? For example, if we face OKC or MIN or DEN in the playoffs, who is guarding Shai, Ant, and Murray?
I hope he’s not as washed up as some of yall claim. if we can have a consistent 3rd scorer, this could be fun.
Love it. Not breaking the bank either.
Did we sacrifice too much defense with the recent trades?

We basically swapped THJ, Josh Green, and DJJ for Quentin Grimes, Naji Marshall, and Klay Thompson. Crazy.
Nico might get a statue next to Dirk after it’s all said and done.
A lot less money than I was expecting
No poa defender in our starting 5 if Klay is starting. Yikes.
Klay is not washed at all tbh yes he’s had a season or two not up to his standards (which are insanely high) but playing with Luka AND Kyrie he’s going to get so many good looks… id expect him to be much better than the last couple seasons on the warriors
We turned what we were paying for THJ into Klay Thompson. What a deal Nico!

Bro why would we send the warriors a second? Keep both second round picks.
At least the deal is cheap. His shooting better be on point because the defense will be a liability all year
I really think he would be best off the bench so we can have good d at sf

People are all concerned about defense like Hardaway was some shutdown defender
You know Josh missed 25 games last year, 22 games the year before. It’s not like he was bullet-proof/Superman. Klay only missed 5 games last year.
We paid 3 years/$48m for chandler parsons…
