In his first season after the injury, Klay played 30 minutes per game for the #1 defense in the league and eventual champions. He might not be prime Klay on defense, but let’s not act like he’s gonna be a straight liability.
Remember the win loss stats of when THJ made threes vs when he didn’t. Now substitute him with one of the best shooters ever. I’m excited for next season. Go mavs
Dallas is finally getting their seat at the table
Thanks for the pod. I’m pumped for Klay
Klay played 30 minutes last year. He will be around 28 this year I think.
Klay is 6’7 and his knees are bad. He won’t be meeting anyone at the rim defensively. The reason he isn’t in death lineup for us is cause he’s not the guy he was 6 years ago. That’s why he’s on the Mavs instead of staying with the Warriors. Kyrie, Luka, Naji, PJ, Lively feels like it should be our best lineup.
Klay pretty famously is not big on the dribbling Kirk lol. Naji is the guy who has potential to put the ball on the deck and attack the hoop. I’m just worried about how Klay will handle things when he takes a seat in the playoffs cause we go with more defense. From an attitude standpoint he hasn’t exactly aged gracefully.
None of this would stand a chance of happening 2 years ago. Kind of incredible, still processing!
In the final six games, ramping up for the play-in tournament, Klay hits 29-63 on threes (46%) and all 13 of his free throws while hitting 24-40 of his twos.
He was playing great offensively and the Warriors went 4-2 with a two point loss to Dallas and a five point loss to New Orleans. He then proceeded to go 0-10 in the most important game of the season…..and he has done this before in big, high pressure, elimination games. You can be a great shooter and not a great clutch performer in the playoffs.
He was 4-19 in the elimination game against Sacramento in 2023 and 3-19 in the elimination game against the lakers.
In the closeout game vs. Boston in 2021 he was 5-20. He has proven to be a guy who’s both great and Terrible. With Dallas his value is in floor spreading, not always in shot taking. He won’t have the pressure of golden state. The Mavs will learn early not trust him with the game on the line. We need him to draw coverage with his reputation. Hopefully very tight coverage. No more moving around a lot. He will be the leagues most expensive decoy and “championship experience” player. He shouldn’t and probably won’t be on the court at the end of games. You will need stops and baskets and Luka-Kyrie-Lively-PJ and our best defensive stopper will be on the court when it counts and the game is close, Either Exum, grimes or Naji. Whoever is playing the best at the time and the best matchup. Maybe OMax at some point this year because of all his length and energy. This won’t sit well with Klay. By February it will likely time to cut bait and move him and others for a player WHO CAN HELP US.
Naji for DJJ
Grimes for Green
Klay for THJ
Still have the FRPs
I think that's a successful off-season.
One more thing. First thing that went through my mind when this happened…Klay won’t hesitate to tell Luka to STFU when it’s needed 🤫🏀3️⃣
Did TeamKlay just go on a podcast in the middle of a meal? If there's ever a podcast naughty list, eating while talking through a mic, should be top of the list.
Welcome Klay Thompson. I don't know if he is on a steep decline, or will fit perfectly with Luka, but the Mavs convincing players of his stature, bodes well for the future and the changing perception of the Mavericks around the league.
Kirk’s going to miss dumb Josh Green plays followed up by very good Josh Green plays that make no sense 🤣
Well Josh thought it made for sense to have Kyrie or Luka take the shot more often than Klay did……and Josh made the right call most of the time until the finals. It was a huge mistake and everyone will know it by May.
We sign Taurean Prince with the rest of the MLE I think we're set.
Need a ball handler that we can trust or a guard defender.
I guess I'm one of the only ones down on this move....I just don't think Klay has much left in the tank. Mediocre defense and streaky shooting. Mavs can't afford a guy shooting 0-10 in the playoffs, we traded away Tim Hardaway Jr who was that guy with insane confidence even when missing like 30 shots in a row.
They didn't give up much for him, but I still think they overpaid. He needs to come off the bench so Marshall can fill the DJ Jr role. But I hope they prove us all wrong. I think this could become the Chandler Parsons or Luol Deng contract especially in year 3. However it is impressive that Mavs were even on the radar of a top free agent. The bet is that Luka makes Klay better...we will see. I wish they had traded for a younger guy with more athleticism and upside.
Klay is ten times better than THJ 😂
@@WadeSlough-iy4mb If you multiply 10x0 you still get zero 🤔😂
Klay gunna shoot over 40% from three again playing w luka
TeamKlayCaptian eating captncrunch on a podcast! 😂
Maxi, Powell & all the picks for Markannen and we are set
Get 🎉
He’s been bad in the clutch in the playoffs since the title run. Stop comparing to Tim. Compare him to Green. That’s who we lost in the trade and that’s who’s minutes he would have had in game 5 of the finals.
I like Josh Green but in all reality most of his games he was hesitant to shoot. Grimes is shooting double the amount of 3s than Green and Thompson is shooting 3 times the amount of 3s than Green. He was never able to navigate a screen and he was overhelping in the wrong moment. Thompson may have lost a step but he still has a high basketball IQ and knows how to defend in a system.
@@fabianfrey7649 well missed threes are daggers to an offense and sadly Klay Has Thompson single-handedly killed the warriors in their game against Sacramento. Since when is a bit of restraint a bad thing?
@@glennvastine5713 Have you watched how Boston played. They won it all because they were willing to let it fly.
@@fabianfrey7649 honestly don’t know what you mean? It’s either smart basketball or it’s not. Boston has more players in the peak of their career. They will again this year and if they stay 100% they’ll win again.
miles bridges please
lol kidds starters lol luka, kyrie, Klay, maxi, Dwight. lol yall know the young players will never see the court, when giving a choice kidd will always go with old and broken over young and athletic every single time
