Other GM's when they draft undersized 2's like a Gary Harris, they will be be gauging their game by how they stack up to what Beal does.

    klay, beal, hayward, parsons, etc…all these guys are overrated. they can't even create their own shot. they need other guys to set them up. klay and beal are spot up shooters. At least hayward and parsons move without the ball and drive to the rim. all these guys have no handle. guys in the nba these days are full of themselves. Lebron is the only guy underpaid even when paid max money.

    Beal is constantly moving without the ball. You kinda sound like Goat Milk saying someone cant create their own shot, even though he can, basketball is a team sport, how many times in a game do you see a guy having to create their own shot.

    As a Spurs fan this summer blows. Now it's inevitable Kawhi gets a max deal with all these subpar guys getting one.

    He's actually a pretty good defender, arguably their best perimeter defender. He usually guards the opposing teams best player. If you want gs to play better defense, you need to look at David Lee or Curry,

    CSN Bay Area plays all Warrior games.

    Also, not sure why you all seem to think Klay can't defend; he's easily one of the best defensive 2 guards in the NBA...AND without question the best 3 point shooting 2 guard currently starting in the NBA. Am I missing something?


    Bleacher Report ranked Klay's 2012-2013 season as the 7th best defensive SG, between Kobe and Danny Green. He's definitely improved (defensively and offensively) since last year. (http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1...the-nba/page/7)

    A writer for NBA.com has his 2013-2014 season ranked as the 2nd best overall SG, behind James Harden. (http://www.nba.com/magic/cohen-8-bal...hooting-guards)

    Now remind me who are all these better 2 guards??

    Klay Thompson TRIES on D, his defense is underrated BUT he's not a max player, not even close. He's holding the teams feet to the fire, if they don't sign him it's a big step backwards, if they sign him, it's a big cap drain. Pretty selfish move by Klay. Look at Lebron, he's the best player in the world and he's only now getting the max after 7 years and two titles, who TF is Klay Thompson? He's not even the best player on his team.

    Look at Kyle Lowry, he took a nice 4yr/$12 million dollar deal, enough money to be comfortable but not too much to handcuff the team and Lowry > Thompson. Duncan took a $10 million deal, so did Dirk. Klay is out of line.

    You're right, he definitely does not deserve a max contract, but I can't say I blame him for wanting one. It is kind of a dick move after they were so adamant about keeping him throughout the Love trade talks though...but I think he's happy with the Warriors, can't see him wanting to go anywhere else but LA where his dad played and announces.

    And yes Lowry > Thompson overall, but not necessarily to a team that already has Steph Curry.

    Might as well just give it to Klay instead of going all-in on Love. They already gave away a bunch of draft picks for Igoudala so I'm not really sure what their plan is. Gotta keep your young guys locked up, he's not worth the max maybe more like $12 mil a year but they had no draft picks this year. They seem to love to make moves but right now they look like a solid group. Nice addition in Livingston to lead the second unit. Just need the young guys to keep improving like Green and Barnes, maybe have Ezeli break out and you can contend.

    Better SG?

    Kobe? Harden? Butler??

    Wade is the only SG playing better but he's missed like half the season....

    Also don't discount the number of 4th quarters he's sat due to blowouts

    Also you might want to compound those dismal career highs with the fact that he's playing his lowest MPG since his rookie year while shooting his best percentages in all categories.

    Along with career highs in steals and blocks.

    That's his numbers from last year. That's 3 rebounds per game, and 2 assists per game

    Does anyone have any idea how fukkin hard it is to be 6 foot fukkin 7, playing 35+ minutes a game, and have numbers like that? It's pretty much impossible.
    You can walk into 5 rebounds a game at his size, but he never steps inside a 3 point line on offense.
    He is worthless on defense.
    I read how he is "a projected above average defender". Projected? He's never showed a hint of being a good defender.
    Has anyone ever watched this guy play defense? He fits perfectly on the Warriors in this spot, because they don't focus on defense.
    His fg %'s are modest- 44% from the floor and 40% from 3, but other than having a nice jumper this guy is 100% WORTHLESS.
    He is on a run-n-gun team to where Curry demands double and triple teams and gets him easy looks as well.
    HE CANNOT create his own shot and has weak handles for a guard.
    I would estimate his point totals would go down to about 15 ppg on 80-90% of other NBA teams.

    This Gordan Heyward contract has some of these mediocre players out of their minds now.
    If Klay fukkin Thompson gets a max contract, I may quit watching the NBA. I already watch it at a bare minimum compared to back in the day when I was a die hard B-ball fanatic.
    I am flabbergasted this kid gets so much hype.
    Who cares how much another man make?

    Its just money and money won't buy you happiness.

    True Happiness comes from being content with what you have.

    Like the song says it's not about getting what you want.

    Its about wanting what you have.

    Typical webber. And "don't like him as a standstill jump shooter?" He's always been a catch and shoot guy until this year when he developed his ability to score off the bounce in the offseason

    OP do you watch basketball? Golden State leads the league in defensive rating... by 3 points... fool. Last year they finished third in the league in defensive rating. Your analysis is completely wrong and you have no credibility.
