Per [Bball Index](https://twitter.com/the_bball_index/status/1673013186285514752?s=46&t=SBW3XJi-eEDBr6FtvDfngg):
Here’s a look at how off-ball guard/wings shot from 3 last season.
⬆️Better shooting relative to shot quality
➡️Easier shots
That shot selection of his may have looked atrocious to us more often than not but my guy was still making a lot of ‘em at a dumb rate lol
*Mods, I didn’t put this in the usual posting a tweet format given the content of the tweet would have been a formatting disaster in the post title.

This is sick and he deserves his flowers for hitting the shots but part of the reason people were getting annoyed was because he was taking unnecessarily tough shots
He was good all season just had a bad playoffs he’ll bounce back next year
I don’t shit on Klay because I understand that he’s a good player.
Who is that guy at 2nd highest? And where is Steph?
Bro is Poole but actually makes the shots
I think he just lost his legs in the playoffs. He’ll be a borderline all star next year.
Yup. Only idiots, casuals and bandwagoners call him klank. Real dubs fans know what’s up with Klay.
Can’t wait for all the apology forms next season. His legs died in the last series.
Hopefully, with a full off-season under his belt, one where he actually trains and works out, he’ll get better at his shot attempts. Some of those last year were brutal
Klay scored 8 points against Lakers to really honor Kobe.
If Klay and Poole made an impact against the lakers in that series we could have had a Dubs vs Nugs conf finales.
I was a huge Klay fan but after seeing the excuses on here even from last year’s playoff run, I don’t think dude is coming back. The excuse last year was he needed a summer and full season to get better. Thats what happened this year. So, I’m ready for 23/24 season for excuses.
He was great all regular season for us, lol now show the offense defense chart from the playoffs
Interesting All-Defensive “Role Teams:”
[https://www.bball-index.com/bbi-2021-22-all-defensive-teams/](https://www.bball-index.com/bbi-2021-22-all-defensive-teams/)
For the “Low-Activity” role, First Team All-Defense = Steph Curry.
Second-Team, you guessed it = Chris Paul!
So he literally took the worst shots is what I’m seeing?
He had a stretch when Curry was out where he played the best basketball he has ever played. Looking for big things from him next season.
I hate the BBall-Index plots, they are so vague with their metrics/axes. I have no clue what “shot making” means. And “better shooting relative to shot quality” sounds like it depends on shot quality, making for a frustrating graph. Both axes should be independent of each other.
He didn’t shoot a lot of catch and shoot but off the dribble in the LA series and those clanked repeatedly.
Not going to apologize for what I saw Klay do the last 4 games against LA 😂
