  1. If they could magically erase Tim’s money right now they still won’t have space for Klay unless GS wanted to facilitate some sort of S&T (not sure what they would get out of that). The better question is do you really wanna take a $20M+ per year flyer on Klay? For multiple years?

    I mean, sure, having Klay is better than not having Klay, but he’s not going to take the MLE to join us, and I don’t see why the Warriors would take on Tim right now, they will want to maximize the remaining years of All Star caliber Steph.

    Also I’m not sure it’s a good idea to be tied to 2 guards enter their mid 30s on big money contracts.

    Will he play basketball for 2 ham sandwiches and a recovery beer?

    We don’t want Klay he can’t move on defense like he used to and is hit or miss from 3

    Warriors can’t wait to get rid of him for a reason, he’s been that bad. If he was even average they’d pay him as a legacy player because he won rings with the team

    I’d take the risk. THJ isn’t going to be any better.

    At least Klay might have a resurgence with a fresh start and a different role. I feel like his struggle is mental, saying he’s the same guy as before, but he looks like he’s chasing his own ghost out there at times.

    Shooting touch is one of the few things players can actually improve with age. No way a sharp shooter like klay just lose his shooting abilities like that. Maybe he’s not able to be as quick but Luka and Kyrie will give him plenty of spacing to shoot.

    bro kyrie and luka will combine 20assist each if they land klay

    “Kendrick Perkins thinks…”

    Does he? At all?

  8. I don’t think Klay is the answer because he can’t make shots anymore either.

    Feels like he’s too much drama and would be bad for team chemistry.

    But that’s what a lot of people thought about Kyrie too so who knows.

    he’s about to be 35… so his ass better be 7th or 8th man

  11. NoWayNotThisAgain

    Whoever is willing to pay him can land Klay. The dude is washed.

  12. God damn knowing Nico is smart to not get washed up “stars” is refreshing. Donnie would do everything to get him bc he saw a 2015-2016 highlights of Klay.

  13. he’s gonna demand huge money cause its his last chance for a big deal. rather go dor fontecchio or vezenkov off the bench.
