Steph allowed Klay and Draymond to become stagnate

Klay's lack of dribbling and ability to get the basket have been overlooked for a decade.

His dribbling makes Jaylen Brown look like Kyrie.

I think Klay and Draymond put in work. Their game/skillset is what is is. Gil's critique makes is sound like Klay's just been content, which I don't think is the case.

Klay didn't have to get to the basket. His skillset was perfect for what they were doing, and he also became a dominant defender before the injury. A lot of great spot shooters didn't/don't necessarily have the best handles either.

no, I disagree Steph is Steph i.e. Wardell. Klay wasn’t the same after his injury and Draymond on is just Draymond. They are going to break up this group after this season because age is really showing it’s ugly head and some of their games. It has been a fun ride but I think the window has closed on this current Golden State group. Wardell Curry has two more years left at top speed so he is going to be the only one remaining on this team next year from the current group. If I was Klay and Draymond, I would just retire after this year

That's a terrible take. For a 10 year stretch Klay was the best 3 and D player in the league. Not every play does every damn thing. Klay has had two devasting leg injuries, so shit is different now.

"Even though you have 4 rings", what a ridiculous limiting statement on greatness from a man that never won a damn thing.

And Klay doesn't just have 4 rings. He was essential to 4 rings and his team would have 5 (at least) if he hadn't gotten hurt in the 2018 Finals.

Thank you!!!!!! Klay was extremely important to the Golden State Warriors before his injury. When Steph Curry had a bad night, Klay would pick up the slack.

The klay slander is ridiculous revisionist history, it's a terrible take at best and just wrong. I'm not a warriors fan in the least but but that was utter bullshit. Klay just hasn't been the same since multiple career ending level injuries, the fact he's won since then and still plays is a testament to what a tough great and dedicated player he is.

Nba fans are the worst most uninformed group of fans on the planet and that includes MMA fans who are usually half retarded inbred rednecks.

this is the problem. It's just good enough.

He went to the perfect team for his abilities.

Ray Allen and Reggie Miller could handle the ball better than Klay.
