Kyrie was a big reason he came to Dallas. I’m sure Kyrie told Klay that the Dallas organization and the fan base supported him wholeheartedly despite his controversial past. Being accepted and valued is way underrated when people try to figure out the reasons why people do things that seem to be strange at first glance.

A choice between a disfunctional Lakers team and being Lebron's scapegoat every time they lose, constantly blamed by LA fans and a shit ton of extra noise, vs playing for what seems a tight young team in the Mavs that just came off a finals run with Luka being an MVP caliber player and a star that other than complaining too much to the refs doesn't really have any drama and is easy to be around. Not really a hard choice to make if Klay is trully thinking about basketball and trying to win another ring.

Luka is young and very good. Luka doesn't have that "if you're not good, then you're gonna be traded fella" type behaviour. If he doesn't perform or does perform, media will not blame him solely or praise Luka and ignore klay if Mavericks lose or win. Luka isn't bigger (not height wise, respect wise) than his coach (Jason Kidd). Mavericks have a better roster that just reached nba finals. Mavericks doesn't have one player controlling the entire front office Mavericks didn't drafted a "trash not nba worthy" son of their star player.

A huge factor imo is the HAPPY factor, like you explored in your video. Underlying everything is being happy at a really core simple essential level. And Luka is a HAPPY person. It's contagious just watching him play separated by the distance from my sofa to my TV and the game I'm watching's geography - Luka is sunshine. Serious, amazing, skilled, and.. light as a feather!!! You see that reflected in the chill in Kyrie who just is drama-less and chill and excellent - that Very bearable lightness of being that Luka brings to those around him (even separated by 1000 miles and a tv screen), is priceless. Winning is great. Being a winner is unique. But to be that winner, to be fully Klay, he needs to be around Happy. The Klay, Kyrie, Luka trio is going to knock our happy socks off! It's gonna be the tres amigos! Can you imagine, seeing Klay smiling again, vs deeply morose and burdened!!! Oh man, this is going to be a great season! Mavs up in Dallas! Spurs in San Antone - The hilarious and happy Thunder up in OKC! What a concept, joy AND excellence!

Luka literally is the PERFECT Superstar. He’s an alltimer with no ceiling but also Super marketable, Super Popular, relatable personality, shines in big moments, aura, killer mentality, trash talking you name it. he is the Face of the League going into next Season😤💯💯 For those still saying the BS narrative that Luka has no defense. Luka’s actually "GOOD” at defense before the injuries piled up and got too much. If you watch Mavs Ball yk He was playing the best defense of his life this season and in the Clippers/OKC series that guys were 2/17 fg when guarded by Luka. All I can say to all Ignorants out there is that expect a focused and determined Healthy Luka at both defense & offense next season💯😤🫵

Personally, I think it boils down to a couple of things. I don't even think money has anything to do with it. 1. Clean Slate - Moving out of the state to Dallas gives him the fresh start I'm sure he really wanted. He won't be surrounded by the same friends, family, and friends like if he remained in the state to heckle him. 2. Appreciation - Wanting to feel more appreciated. Between countless instances of players talking about how easy it is to get along with Luka, and Kyrie's happiness since his transition when no one else gave him a chance, Klay will feel much more appreciated on the Mavericks than the Lakers. 3. Young, Talented Core - Dallas has many talented young players. Gives him a great shot at a championship while limiting the worry about being traded away due to age. 4. Less Ego & Drama - Mavericks will have less ego and drama issues than the Lakers, more relaxed environment.

I don't like to deal in intangibles, but ... In addition to all that is said here (and how much sense it makes), I gotta say that the Mavs this past season just had a crazy, infectious, brotherhood vibe that had a lot of non Mavs fans (like me) basically rooting for them all of a sudden from the trade deadline through the finals. They just sorta FEEL like a team you want to ride with now. I can't explain or justify this take, but it's like that.

I'm a life long Spurs fan but I find myself wanting the Mavs to get a ring first. Part of it is what you said- they have a us vs the world mentality that is fun to watch. Part of it is a desire for the NBA talking heads (Perkins and Smith, mainly) to have to admit Luka is a top 5 player.

I actually believe he'll be much better in this Dallas defense as primary defense than people are thinking. Dallas runs a funnel system and klay will also have the energy for it. So people not realize how much this man has had to ruin to get the majority of his shots? That won't be the case in Dallas. He'll do 2 primary things. The first is post up in the corner and wait for the ball to find him. The second (at least they should run it) will be the 1/3 pnr... if they double off of that that leaves Klay with a top of the key open shot which he loves. Klay will have more energy on defense than he's had in years and that is being overlooked.

I think one point people are missing is that a more stagnant offense might actually suit klay more at this point in his career. Itll save his legs. Him just being out there creates more space for kyrie and Luka. The ideal scenario is to stagger his minutes so that hes only ever on the floor with one of the other two at a time (for defensive reasons) and see how it goes. They literally have the second greatest shooter of all time coming in to fill a spot up role. Hes probably going to feast this season and average 15-20 / game.

Pre injury, Klay Thompson was one of the most confident, stone cold, unshakeable players in the league. My heart goes out to him, because you can see how badly he wants to prove he's still the same guy. After all of his struggles, and all the hard work he's put in, he of all people deserves a real chance at redemption.

I would say that Klay just wanted to settle into a situation where he didn't have to switch teams every year or two for the rest of his career. I also think that the Warriors needed to retool to stay competitive in the future, however I haven't seen any moves yet on their part to stay relevant. There are some fantastic teams coming on in the league and an aging big 3 wasn't going to get it anymore.

just came here to say Klay was looking great with the Mavs during the season opener. I got a good feeling that his addition to the roster will take them to the finals again this season. Luka and Kyrie are already a crazy one two combo, now with Klay on the perimeter for a kick out it's going to be even more deadly. plus having younger players in Luka and Lively gives Klay potential to thrive there long term if he can stay healthy and consistent with his shooting. either way, he made the right move

@YossGold

This is a fantastic piece. Not tying to make anyone's case, just adding the layers of context to tell the real story as it lies. I think that at this stage of Klay's career, he'll bring way more value behind Luka and Kyrie's gravity than he ever would trying to provide gravity to let Steph or LeBron work. Also the Mavericks organization is famous for making their players feel wanted (see, Kyrie Irving who got embraced and "nursed back" his confidence there when he was everyone's outcast, Dirk who was offered everything by everyone to leave and he never felt like he could). I think that's what Klay wants more than anything right now, to feel wanted. He'll get that in bucketloads in Dallas and all he needs to do to pay them back is his the open 3s Luka and Kyrie's gravity are going to provide (his stats hitting uncontested 3s hasn't dropped at all post injury). Now add to that 0% income tax in Texas vs the 13% in California AND not having to compete for minutes, shots and blame dumps with Bronny and higher chance to be competing for a ring and it's pretty easy to see why Dallas was chosen over the Lakers. As for the Warriors, I believe haven't recognized that they're not going to be able to squeeze any more rings out of what's left of Steph's prime. They re-signed Draymond (I think that was a huge mistake), who even when prime, was a wild card that could explode or implode when it matters the most and has shown time and again he values "me" over "team". They're ignoring how limited Kuminga is and actually think he's going to develop into a star. Who the hell knows where Wiggins is mentally these days and Steph can do a lot, but with their current roster, defenses are going to be able to throw way more focus his way (which they couldn't with prime Klay on the floor), so his numbers are going to start dropping. Tbh, I think that since they already gave baby Dray what he wanted, they should've resigned to the notion that this era is them riding out the trio that made them legends for another 2-3 years and given Klay the feeling they still want him, since they're not winning anything in the next 3 years with or without him. So yeah, I do understand why the Warriors didn't want to put too many years into a fading Klay, but since they're not getting any better during those years, I think they should've bit the bullet and rode it out. Would have closed out the dynasty trio with a better taste. Also if (hopefully when 😉) the Mavs end up winning next season, it'll sting them even more.
