That's actually a classy answer from Klay, good on him for maturing. Draymond....💀
Lol he looks so hurt
That is the one thing draymond has ever done that I respect. He knew klay is hurting and made a pretty good point.
@XChronicHash that ain't funny man getting old sucks. It slaps you in the face one day and all you can do is cope.
@@joeshmoe2746not mature by Draymond he shouldn't be bragging about getting benched for kiccing someone in the nuts
Hearing him sing before sayin’ anything i knew he was gonna say some shit 😂
This is the actual sign of growth as a person and I love it for Klay. His pride is a testament to his greatness so how he feels is completely understandable. But nothing wrong at all with making adjustments in life for success. Respect from a Thunder fan and I’m happy for Klay
I feel 4 him tho...
“Growth” lmfaoo this guy is hurting bad on the inside and doesn’t mean anything he’s saying
Klay is not shooting good at all. Curry use to depend on him. When Curry went to sit down for a few minutes and let Klay in Klay couldn’t even make a shot. That is not a good player anymore.
Hes not a bad player'hes just not in his prime anymore @loritownsend1474
@@loritownsend1474 every great declines at some point
Half of my teammates are Draymond 😂
What sport do you play? Rugby
@@guyknack no basketball
Much respect to the legend,I hope he gets the chance to redeem himself and finish his career in the GoldenState
Instantly gained some appreciation for him watching this.. Just honest emotions there and you can see in his eyes how much it hurts.. Crazy
Overemotional always hanging his head looking miserable, I lost a lot of respect for the guy
@@TheMaka71I’ve lost respect for you. Stop trying to be different lol
@@TheMaka71Do me a favor. Tear your ACL AND Achilles, go into rehab for months, well over a year, come back, and try to do the game you been playing your entire life. One you put your entire world into to get better. I’ve torn both my ACLs, it’s been 3 years, and I still don’t feel the same. Physically? It doesn’t bother me, but it’s mentally draining. Clearly something you don’t know/want to know or care about.
Big guy over here
@@TheMaka71you're a weirdo. Keep watching the game from the couch where you belong
@@TheMaka71you’re the kind of person where not being respected by you is a sign that a person is doing good in life.
Draymond doing the RDC videos in real life 💀
There is no joy without pain, embrace the struggle and make the most of your opportunities. 🎉
deep
Okay Cade Cunningham
klay :😕
draymond: 🤪 ANYYYTHINGGGG FOR YOUUUUU
😭😭😭😭😭
😂😂😂
This is so chaotic can’t even understand Klay 😅
Draymond is always naturally unaffected hope klay can hone this ability… just in life period …fuck wat they say klay … nigga u on top
“Anything For YOU!!”🤣🤣
😂😂😂☠️
Damn this is tough to watch. Klay was one of the best players in the league on both ends at one point and was one of the only guys in the league who you knew would consistently show up on big nights in the playoffs specifically. Injuries really robbed him of 2 full seasons that should’ve been part of his prime and he’s never really been the same since outside of spurts, really feel for him rn. Still the second greatest shooter ever and hopefully he can get back to being great because that’s what he is.
Steph is 1, Ray Allen is number 2, then I’m going with Reggie at number 3 at all time greatest shooter then Klay at number 4
Tough injuries, there’s nothing you can do
I have him in my 2K all time team, basically in the beginning of the season there's a draft with the all time players from each franchise- when they were at their primes. He was my 3rd pick I believe, it's great to see him destroy :) BTW my starting lineup is Yao, Kirilenko, Kawhi, Klay, Steph. Off the bench- Peja, Ron Harper, Mourning, Glenn Robinson, Ricky Rubio, Mark Eaton, Shumpert, Battier. So far we are 10-3 !
@@mcu2478no
@mcu2478 Klay had only one season under 40% whereas Ray shot under 40% 12 times
Klay hurting deep inside while Draymond happy singing is funny as hell and then having him walk up stand there to interrupt exactly what Klay's hurting about is even more funny lol he said who the f*** cares! Basically fuck your feelings 😂
He hurting man he went from 1nof the best shooters and been struggling ever since comming off being hurt twice bad injuries. We will never know how tht feels cuz we here typing vs being out there so cut the cap yall.
Why should we have sympathy when he sh1tted all over people when he was on top? Who cares that he’s sunk to the bottom. Womp womp
Damn, he's crippled 😂 No wonder he's trash!
1n of the best shooters for sure. Top 10n.
You don’t need to live his EXACT experience to know how he feels.
So real
I’m 37, a former D1 college hooper and I just came back from a partially torn Achilles that I rehabbed for almost 7 months. To say it was hell would be a huge understatement. I Could barely get out of bed, barely walk and that was on a partial. And now I’ve been back playing for a few weeks and I’m getting cooked by guys I would normally torch.
I can only imagine how klays body is feeling even 2-3 years after everything has been rehabbed. I Hope he finishes the year strong, but the fact he’s out there is a true testament to who he is. Stay strong klay! 👌🏽🏀💦
I tore my achilles in 2013 and I still don't feel like I ever did prior.
Tore my ACL MCL meniscus. The fact Klay has endured both an ACL and Achilles is mind boggling. It’s been 11 months and I am maybe 70%
i tore my achilles at 20🤦🏽♂️ doctor said i was his youngest patient
Klay will bounce back from this. His character and self awareness is what will lead to him overcoming this moment in life.
I just had a full achilles tear 2 months ago. It sucks not being able to do the things you once could but I plan to bounce back stronger. I'm already walking. Focusing on balance and strength now.
Shout out draymond. You always need a friend to remind you stop feeling bad for yourself
Klay, appreciate your honesty, still the best hooper ever from WSU, represent and keep going!
It breaks my heart man seeing his game's downfall😢
He often does the leaning three which he didn't do that often during his pre-injury. Sometimes, when he feels hot.
Draymond!!😂
“ANYYYTHING FOR YOU!!!”

Love you Klay. Much love from the Bay!!!!! GO Warriorrrssss! You a survivor Klay!!!!!
Dray 😭😭😭😭😭
I'll always support Klay no matter what.
And that’s why you will forever lose in life
Klay will bounce back from this. His character and self awareness is what will lead to him overcoming this moment in life.
Klay still got it i just feel like he in his head
Opposite. In his head he’s still got it but he don’t.
Respect to Klay for being real and vulnerable. But also didn't have a problem with draymonds view. Both healthy attitudes
He saved us in okc game 6 😢still respect klay this happened to d rose
Draymond like him or hate him is the guy you want on your team and in your locker room.
no he is not lmaoo. fought with kevin durant, punched poole, constantly getting ejected, foul trouble, and suspended
@@ForeverDakota1 kd didn't buy into the team and try to fit in what they already had going. Poole is an idiot and probably deserved it. Draymond is like +30 when he's in the game. They go negative when he's not. And it's been like that for along time.
I'm wit u on that . I been saying warriors don't need a trade. They just need their full line up. Crazy how the media can turn fans on teams to point fingers etc. green is massive for the team. Poole definitely deserved it as a fresh member of the team. Poole said greens an expensive backpack for 30 or something . He was also stirring up shit during practice on top of many things ppl don't know about. Idc what anyone says about green but he's the homie who will have ur back. When klay and whoever that nobody was got into a scuffle . Green was the first dude to help his homie out. Media portrays him as a bad guy. Ppl must not have good friends IRL if they didn't see that exchange as something a homie would do.
Appreciate him being honest. It will make it easier. Once he gets over the fact he's not who he was he'll be able to adjust his game.
This hurts to see.
Respect for Draymond trying to encourage
This is a perspective: why are you guys so hard on Klay just because for the first time in his career, he's only shooting 37% from the three? Damian Lillard is shooting like that for his whole damn career!
It's a clear drop off with klay
Klay is mostly an off ball shooter, Dame was shooting over double teams at high volume… They are not comparable players. Dame is a way more dynamic player.
@@joeshmoe2746 Huh?
@@27Lozc Huh? More volumes? They have the same volume. "More volume" Where did you get that, the guy on the top? Haha. "Shooting over double teams" even if that's true, why would you shoot it? Pass it! That's never a justification. A 37% accuracy is still 37% accuracy. Only 37% of your shots are going in every single time, and that's the reason he is a loser, because efficiency is part of the game. Chet summarized it, efficiency win games, you don't hand the ball over to the opposing team, you make it count. You shoot to miss? Haha, funny, boy. Just accept that a washed Klay is Dame's whole career, but you people pedestals highlights and scoring without seeing the context behind it, but you people complain why he isn't winning. He's not winning because he is jacking up airballs.
@@youtubewatcher8565 You are a basketball casual. Pass to who? Dame had to take those shots cause that was his role for his talentless Portland team. They want him to take those shots. While Klay takes easy and open shots, cause he’s a role player. While Dame was the star of his team… 👍
Stop pretending you know hoops, it’s funny. Go learn what a true shooting percentage is next time. Stop comparing a 6’1 guard to a 6’7 spot up shooter… You are probably one of those people that think Klay is comparable to Reggie Miller or Ray Allen too. Klay is more comparable to JJ Reddick or Kyle Korver. He ain’t top 75 calibre. Ironic you talk about context. You are the one simplifying things cause you googled a shooting percentage. You don’t even watch games…
Cmon klay... Don't let ego get in the way from the team's importance. Take inspiration from Russ for example.
WBrick is trash.
@@carlocalingasan998 he is. But you gotta understand your role according to your play and how you'll fit best with the team.
@@carlocalingasan998klay is much worse
@@IlmaliklI Just now but they are both past their prime. Klay will have a statue in front of the arena when it’s all said and done.
How come westbropk is trash tho @@judyclarkson5887
At least he's aware now. Hopefully he finds other ways to contribute to the team because watching him try to be the old Klay is painful.
Klay being mature and understanding of what he has become . Draymond in the back well… being Draymond
He's a great player for the Golden State Warriors
Man atleast he being honest. Much respect for Clay. I remember the day he got hurt it was the best I ever seen him play he was shinning. You had a great run Brother
Thats why Drayton is so Great, lift up your brothers show them it could be worse love them but hate them
Keep your head up Klay.
This dude Draymond singing 😂
Now you understand carmelo anthony😅
At least Klay is not losing any sleep
You gotta take one for the team and just be a 6th man at this point.
Shout out to Dray for taking up for Klay.... Matters a little... But still, way to ride for your boy especially when he clearly hurt
klay is a real one
I'm not a warriors fan but I'm a fan of basketball hopenu get back to it king u got this
Felt Dray for that
Draymond being real .. like bruh suck it up n play better or sit behind kuminga.. you always gone be klay Thompson...scoring or not bro just do ya thing n now hearing Draymond .. I think I know who suggested you get benched 😂😂😂😂 end of the day.. your going from your locker to your million doller car, to a million dollar house.. i know a mfk that have to ride the bus after a bad shift at McDonald's
Now dats the truth im at work now as i type this shit 12 hr shift suck it up your a legend
The Wazzu Legend is going thru it and y’all making McDonald’s shift comparisons? He reached the apex/the mountaintop. Make it make sense.
@@BlimpCityFeeder you make it make sense, read what you said, then read what I said dumb boy... I said he need to suck it up.. if he at the top.. why TF he got a reason to be mad? If you a real one you get it.. every job is hard. But when you got less to stress about as far as daily life goes.. when you know you got money to eat, for clothes, shoes and anything you want .. why TF are you mad after a bad game or season .. when it's people at McDonald's that go home on the bus n still not mad so doesn't your comment just support my comment ole captain save a hoe ass boio
Kinda hard to take Draymond seriously when he was jealous of his own teammates new contracts.
Yall some assholes fr
Fuck man. He's got so much emotion in this statement... My all time favourite player.
Lol you must be just as corny as him
@@bkballa989 lmao? You probably just never excelled at anything to know how much effort and passion it takes. And how crumbling it can be to be this defeated
@@jaylee2577 defeated ass bum. Nah I’ve achieved well in this life thank you
Klay was my favorite player in the league to watch... play defense. His effort and quick feet on defense was inspirational - but that era of his 2 way game appears to be gone. Unfortunate
I hope for Klay that he returns to form. He's a heck of a guy
Draymond singing the PetSmart song! LMAO! 😂🤣😭💀💀💀
Yet he rejected the 2yr deal they offered him🤡
Facts 💯 big mistake
It might be a blessing in disguise for the org 😂...
yeah i mean he probably thought a lot more of himself back then which explains why he's so sad now
It most likely was because of his agent probably telling him he could get more out there
@@sloppyyhe’s thought a lot more of himself his whole career and he’s NOT that guy lol
Dudes issue is his effort. His body language. It's definitely a more mental thing than anything else.
SHUT UP DRAYMOND! 😂 Poor Klay can’t even express his feelings in peace!
He did that out of support for Klay. That’s not an easy topic to discuss with teammates. That’s called using the media to send a message to your teammates.
yoo.. Klay come on over to the Los Angeles Lakers boi.., we need ya
Draymond speaking truth
Klay is awesome.
Klay your mental is the most important part of your game. Do not allow anyone, doctors included to tell you you can’t close out. Anymore. You are stronger than that. God gave you this gift.. let it make room for you. But in order to do so.. your faith has to elevate. You are still one of the greatest players not because of your talent.. because the gift God has put in you.
I love klay ❤
He doing fine
Draymon make the worriors loose against Cleveland cause of his Technicals
Light skin moment
Klay 💪🏻
It's all mental. He's a shooter.
We still support you no matter what. True fans no what you bring and what you’ve brought to the game. The whole league shooting 3 because of you and Steph. You wiil be in the Hall of Fame with a statue in front of the stadium. Everyone is still trying to catchup with you .
They actually would have had only 1 ring if Kyrie isn’t hurt in 2015 & they didn’t get KD. They need to call that man and give thanks. Draymond really hurt them 😂.
His issue is Karma period.. he did plenty and talked a lot and tbh I was so happy when he poked Bron in 2016! 😂 we see how that worked out the man was so great they had to recruit Durant just to beat him while simultaneously destroying the greatest would’ve been future rivalries for all of the fans in mankind.. idk who was worse him or Dray
Look Klay you are amazing and what you have done in the NbA is amazing!!!!
But the team is not being as successful and if you feel you the same Klay of 2015, well we know that’s not true. You guys have had an amazing run but Kerr has to try some different things and the young guys need reps to fill in the gaps yall can’t fill. And even if you can, they need the reps more. Tough for all superstars to adjust.
I MEAN THIS IS A GOOOOOD LOOKING MAN🥰
Nah mai hoki mai te rangi mai bless you klayk keep safe ka.pai and have a wonderful life ❤️ ka.pai 😂🎉
You can tell Draymond cares man. He's trying to help Klay.
Dray dead sound like Mark(RdcWorld) when he act like Dray
Draymond ear'hustling like a mf...no wonder his teammates scared to call his ahh out 😂😂😂boi be waiting in the cut.
I’d do anything
I’d fix everything
I’d do anything
Anything
For you
Dude wants to cry. Can tell. Klay thinking he’s not one of the best in the league is crazy.
I don’t think his game is diminishing . I just think he’s having a bad season.. The nba is all about adjustments! Only 5 men on the court , you gotta constantly find ways to keep your game on the level it should be. This why Kobe stayed in the gym constantly ! This why Jordan treated practice like it was a roast! Klay will be okay once he finds his rhythm
Steph went from Steph and klay( splash brothers) Steph and KD, Steph and draymond(pick and roll)
Steph solo act and now Steph and Kuminga.
Pride hurtttt. Thats life tho
U 3.5 3PT you hit for me majority of the time🤣
Klay just has to shoot less volume. Avoiding those wild shots he took in this season. Im sure he can be an important asset to this team if he plays in the right way
I can’t stand the dubs, but I feel bad for him. Everyone gets old.
I want klay to play better but man that acl just takes alot out the tank i still believe in klay but that acl really took alot out the tank but to come back n play well in the playoffs n finals n then decline i give em pass for now
Why everyone on Draymond like he ain't give the perfect response. It's all about winning. Klay isn't a good starter anymore and SHOULD come of the bench and let kerr figure out what works
Klay bro just find ways to adjust that fit how you play now, work around the injuries you’ll figure it out
Draymond gone turn that shit into a podcast
Watch the final minutes of the lakers warriors game on jan 27 and the warriors especially Curry didn't even look Klay's way when he was open during those final minutes. They don't trust that he can close out games any more. He would make a great 6th man to come in to the game with fresh legs. I don't think he can be a consistant starter any more
The athletic side is gone. Yet is shooting is still there. He just needs to take care is body, i think there's no power on his legs. Most of his shot are is compensated with hands instead using his legs.
He needs to cut minutes and stay fresh always. He also needs to check his rest how to replenish his energy cause he isn't young anymore.
Then more conditioning, not weights but how he can hold his breath.
Maybe you should do right by your older splash bro and work on dribbling, finishing...Steph is way shorter and he can't jump but his shot creation, and finishing is elite. Cmon klay. Otherwise you need to be considered a JJ type.
Draymond says who cares but crying everytime they try replace him from they big 3😂😂
He sticking up for his teammate
He needs to come off the bench and slow himself down a bit, everything for him is so rushed and just needs to let the game come to him again, maybe he can get himself into a rhythm if he’s the focal point of the second group since he won’t be competing for touches there.
S: Curry, Podz, Wiggs, Kuminga, Green
B: Klay, Lonney
I think this is the core group of guys that they need to keep, good combo of youth and experience
He gone cry in the car 😂
Klay will bounce back from this. His character and self awareness is what will lead to him overcoming this moment in life. He’ll show you hateful losers.
That dude was about to cry. Draymond need to mind his business
Dray:Who cares?
Klank:....
Dealing with draymond on a day to day has to be ruff
Draymond is a menace
Klay feel for him hopes he snaps back
And ama lakers fan
Klaaaaayy nobody caaaarrres is draymoooon
Dudes making 38 million a year. Guaranteed if he was not fleecing the Warriors right now, he would not be so humble about this situation.
당신은 이미 전설입니다 나는 당신을 사랑하고 존경합니다
Klay is pure shooter stop using him like a 3 and d give em 20 shots a game on ran plays then let the young guys fill in the main minutes for defense purpose
PRAYING FOR KLAY TO REGAIN THAT RHYTHM
