[Rubin] No Klay Thompson in today’s starting 5. It’ll be the first game he comes off the bench since his rookie year. Steph Curry, Brandin Podziemski, Andrew Wiggins, Jonathan Kuminga, Draymond Green

Now Trayce over Looney and we might have something going fr

Podz earned it. That is all effort.

Please be the way going forward. Klay can be a good 6th man

That Westbrook foul finally snapped Steve

Yep it’s time also let’s give TJD more minutes.

WOW, I never thought Kerr had the balls to actually do it. Let’s see how this plays out…

I owe you an apology, Steve Kerr, I wasn’t familiar with your game

Little sad but the right thing to do is guess

Can’t believe it but it’s happening

Wonder if this is temporary given it’s back to back. Klay played well against Jazz the other day
coco_copagana
i think this will be like when Dray and Wiggs got benched. it will be a couple of games then when Klay finally realizes his faults and be right, he’ll be right back to the starting 5

Klay come back stronger

Let’s hope this sticks and is not just because it’s a b2b.

Kerr has benched CP3, Wiggs and Klay in the same season

It had to be done.

If this stays, I think Klay is perfectly suited to be that microwave scorer off the bench. Some nights he’ll be hot and get 20+ shots and 30+ minutes, and on the cold nights it’ll be 10 shots and under 20.

Klay shouldn’t be shocked. He knew when he was walking off the court throwing his hands up in the air. He knew what he did.

Damn, no bs just basketball, pls think it like that klay. Podz is just a better player overall this year compared to him, gotta get that ray allen/westbrook type role for this team to his mindset.

Oh wow didn’t expect it tbh. I thought they might recalibrate after the all-star break, but great to see.

I’m not surprised. Kerr was beyond pissed last night when Klay fouled.

Goof decision by Kerr, about time.

For everyone complaining over the years about Moody and Kuminga’s minutes… BP is the one that is shown how to grab the opportunity and not let it go. Obviously Kuminga got there with time, and was a lot more raw to start…. But BP deserves so much credit for earning it!

About damn time, been calling for Klay to be benched for some time now. I figured he’d solve his selfish/thoughtless play over the offseason. Guess not.

And Klay responds with 35 in 18 minutes 😂 just Klay being Klay..
