Honestly, all 3 of them are great off ball. KD doesn't need the ball in his hand all the time, just give it to him when you want a bucket. Klay is an amazing catch and shoot guy so he doesn't need the ball in his hand. And curry can play off ball too, but he's the point guard so he would need the ball to make passes and plaus

The best one is Bogut picks up a loose ball out past the three point line and Klay runs right at him, grabs the ball, turns around and flings it in. Actually, no. The best one is when he is deep middle and off rhythm, hesitates, then throws it in. Actually, no. The best one is when Iguodala flings it ahead and Klay is on the wing and shoots without looking practically. Actually!!! Isn't that the game where he had the three-point play layup in the last minute and the mid-court steal of the inbound, retrieves Draymond's save and finds Iguodala for two free throws??? Good God

Klay Thompson has a style that can work after rehab. He's not awkward whenever he's putting the ball up. His contact and cuts he's able to control and Concentrate on basically the blocking sled type contact without having to adjust back to his dripple. That catch and shoot is a pure motion. Anybody that undercuts him landing knows he won't make it out if the arena alive. But it will be interesting to see how his defense and rebounding change.

@@doctorsam5771 His skills don't involve being a ball dominant player so it likely would've decreased his value. Also there's a difference between taking a back seat and playing your role. Wade took a back seat to Lebron by allowing Bron to flourish while hindering his own game. Klay doesn't do that because his game doesn't hinder anyone else's. There's no need to take a backseat because he compliments everyone and everything. Also Westbrook doesn't demand the ball he demands pace and typically nobody is going to play at his pace so they give him the ball.

​@@doctorsam5771 Nah, Klay doesn't have the skill to be a ball dominant player, he would've decreased his value immensely. Just because a player doesn't do something doesn't mean he's actually good at it but just deliberately not showing it. With that mindset you could say Ben Simmons is the best 3-point-shooter of all time, but he's just taking a backseat and chooses to let others shoot them.

Exactly, if Klay was on a team like the CAVS with Sexton, the Grizzly with Ja Morant or even the Hawks with Trae young, he could easily be the first option and averaging 25-30ppg … Klay is a 2 ways player like Kawhi, Paul George or Tatum, these players just need a good playmaker to score. For me Klay was a Top 10 player, he is the 2nd best shooter of all time, very clutch and smart. I would take Klay over Kyrie anydays of the week, not only Klay is as good as a scorer, but he is also a great defender unlike Kyrie. The big 3 of Curry, Klay and Draymond was already better than Lebron, Kyrie and Love, and then they added KD ? And the CAVS lost Kyrie in 2018 ? Nah these chip were too easy for them …

It's great that Klay and Steph play together. In the 2019 Finals we saw how tough Steph's life was without Klay's spacing, and also in 2020-21, although Steph dominated, we saw that he missed Klay's spacing, especially against the best teams and in the play-in games, when his life got very tough indeed. From the other direction, it would be interesting to speculate on how Klay would do if he had to play a whole season without Steph attracting attention. Together they're absolutely lethal.

He's a champion and knows how to play both ends of the floor (OGs remember him being known as a "defensive stopper" before he became a torch from deep), he has a dog he loves, and he's loyal to the Dubs. Giannis and Klay are guys to always cheer for. Steph too.

Agree. Danny Green might have ruined this mans career with his 2 incredibly dirty fouls in that playoff series. The first being game 5 when Klay was shooting a 3 and Green hit him when he was in the air causing him to land awkwardly and initially hurt his knee. Then in game 6 when he hit Klay from behind/side in the air causing the complete tear when he couldn't land correctly.

The guy has been playing under a microscope for such a long time,on a team that so many people hate,yet everybody always liked him. That tells you what kind of a character he is. Also,people say he's not a shot creator. He actually is. He just doesn't use ball handling to creat it. He does it with his off the ball movment. He createst for himself to score points,while also creating for his teammates by being such a good floor spacer with his shot. Plays defense,never complains,plays team basketball,a sure thing for 20 points on average,every game can explode for 50 points,but the most important thing,the moment is never to big for him. He can shoot it in the pre-season game or NBA finals.

@@billpap.9669 His skillset fits well on this team, with Steph. Most of his points comes off catch and shoot attempts, either from screens or because everyone is guarding Curry. GSW also has a unselfish culture and Superstar in Steph Curry, so when Klay gets hot he just keeps feeding him. I’ve seen both get hot, and Curry would just give Klay the spotlight.

Before, when I was just starting out in basketball, I was really into Curry. But as time went on, I unexpectedly started to admire the simple game of Klay, which is extremely effective on the court, especially his off-ball and catch-and-shoot skills. The result is that one day, I realized that I fully adapted his playing style. I learned that it's possible to contribute to the team without necessarily needing to compete for ball handling. Just play like Klay! Shout out to my wife she is the one who told me, to mold my my game to KT11 😊 🏀🌊👌
