i actually think Klay is fairly placed. i've thought for a while he is a premium 3 and D guy. i dont think you want Klay as your best guy. of all the stuff from others about Green being a role player, Klay is much more that guy for me. and don't get me wrong, he's awesome. that he's the 4th best player on a team is nuts.

quote:
Mike Conley, Lillard, Lowry, Gobert, Heyward, no one would take those guys over Kyrie

i go two ways here. in a playoff series, Kyrie is probably in my top 10. he turns it on under the bright lights. over the course of the season, i'm much less bullish on him.

and it's not like those other dudes are slouches either. small/irrelevant market guys that dont get the hype of a Nike poster boy playing w/ LeBron can still play

Anyone willing to consider Klay a premium defender should have him top 10-12 minimum. There is no question he is one of the best shooters and scorers in the game. He also is very long and has versatility in guarding multiple positions. I believe he will leave the Warriors the first chance he gets because he unquestionably better than Green and would get the Curry/Durant praise on about any other team in the league. I think he is easily the most likeable personality of the Warriors top 4.

No you don't.
how many guys in the league can be your best guy and win you a playoff series regardless of who else is on the team?
They all need help outside of Lebron and KD, maybe Kawhi, Harden, Curry.
