One of the best in the league, arguably one of the best well rounded players. He’s probably too 5 easily. Find a flaw in his game? Defense, offense, humble. Great team player. Without him the warriors are toast.

Can't say enough good things about himComment -
Could be most underrated guy in the league. Can play on both ends on the court. I agree wth Durant be gone and they definitely keep Klay. Also if I'm the Warriors I'd let Draymond walk before ever thinking bout giving him major money. Steph and Klay max out and bring in new blood around themComment -
Klay is the least consistent of all the warriors stars. I'd let him walk. He wouldn't be as good in an isolation get your own shot system.Comment -
Yeh but put him on another team and see what happensComment -
If you think they should let Durant go, to keep Klay then fck if I know what to say.Comment -
Couldn’t they in theory keep everyone (if they wanted to stay) and just pay the luxury tax?Comment -
He showed up today when Step Curry did not.. He's a player!!! KD still the best player on that team.. Wish the Lakers would sign him..Comment -
When you’re around great players your skills are better I wouldn’t sign this guy on another team just a typical NBA shooter also known as JJ RedickComment -
Klay Thompson post game interview MVP.Comment -
barely top 5 on his own team, and yet people here putting him top 5 in the nba
yeah ok, i guess he's better than westbrook/harden/leonard

If the Suns and Warriors made a trade - Klay Thompson for Devin Booker, the Warriors would still win the title and the Suns would be a lottery team.
Klay’s a good role player but he’s not elevating anyone. All his offense comes off being set up by his teammatesComment -
Plaza pretty accurate
Put JJ Redick on Golden State same thingComment -
He’s good but he wouldn’t be that hard to stop on offense if he were with another team. His entire offensive arsenal is catch and shoot, and when he’s wide open he’s great at it. It works beautifully on the Warriors but any other team and he wouldn’t get those opportunities.
He’s a beast on defense
Def not top 5 in the league, probably not top 10 or 15 but still an amazing talentComment -
He’s one of the best because he’s always wide open. Thats not his doing, thats defenses collapsing on Durant or doubling Curry. KD is undeniably the best player in the league, Curry top 5, and Thompson is the beneficiary
Not a huge knock on KT, he’s great, but any other team and he doesn’t get those shots.
No hateComment -
Westbrook
Harden
Leonard
KD
Curry
Lebron
Giannis
Irving
Lillard
AD
Embiid
Alright, before you crucify me, not saying all these guys are better but a case could be made. KT doesn’t carry the Warriors like the guys above do for their teams
With that said, he’s certainly top 15, probably bottom half of top 10, Id say 7-10 rangeComment -
Id put Harden, KD, Curry, Giannis, AD and Leonard as top 6
Next would be Westbrook, KT, Lebron, Irving, Embiid
No particular order in either groupComment -
GTFO here w/ the top 5 stuff. Guy can't even create his own shot let alone carry a team. Great spot up shooter who is the beneficiary of wide open looks because of the team he plays on. You make him a #1 option and he averages 19 a gameComment -
klay is the 5th best person on his own team, post your top 5 in the league and then we can laugh that you have him ahead of harden, westbrook, kawhi leonard, and about 20 other guys that he belongs belowComment -
Klay does struggle to create and get off his own shot off the dribble, he does benefit from all the other great shooters on GS which in turn gets him wide open shots at times..
He's a very good spot up shooter, one of the best for sure.. Now Step Curry can create his own shot off the dribble which makes him a better player then Klay Thompson... Klay Thompson will never be a franchise player on any playoff team if traded.. He will perhaps always be the best roll player in the league though..
Klay is a two way player.. He can D up... I'd take him on any team and he would start..Comment -
Top 5 in the NBA? So he is better than Lebron, KD, Greek Frick, Harden, Kawhai, Curry, Westbrook, AD?
Comment -
Klay in a tough position....
I think Golden State brings out the best in Klay. Maybe Kerr knows how to make him better?
You put Klay solo on another team... wouldn't do jack sh#$.
Big 3 for Golden State won't last forever.... you take any one of the 3 out of that line up... G.S. wouldn't win sh#$.Comment -
Lol watch him go to another team and he would be nothing but better... him and curry are the best shooters in the league and he’s top 5 defensive player. You guys are trippinComment -
His defense is average at best.Comment -
I’m just hoping he ends up in NY.Comment -
Lol ok Ill admit I’m going a little deep here but top 15 all day easy lol top 5 is definitely tripping....idk I just like the guy type of player any championship team needs to win championships periodComment -
He would be an integral part on any NBA team of any era.
He ain`t Curry or KD, but is a consistent, true professional that can go off some nights.
I would take him on my team over Westbrook all day , every day. No drama. Can actually put the ball in the basket with some regularity.
Puts team ahead of self.Comment
