This game shows why there's never been a player like Steph in terms of how he stresses a defense maybe even more than when his shot is locked in.
Best offensive player in the history of the game
@@JayzsMr definitely not
You gotta guard Curry from the locker room, when he’s coming from the parking lot, and when he wakes up
No it shows that gs has a good system and lots of playmakers. Udoka even said they aren't going after curry like they did other players because of the playmakers gs has. Every star has gravity.
@@TheNorthie I get this reference lmao
Two way Wiggins is so crucial. His drive, dunk, floaters, rebounds and defense are incredibly important. With Celtics's defense without drop affecting Curry, Wiggins is so clutch. Game 6 Klay pls take us home. Let's go!!!!
BRING IT ON HOME WARRIORS!
Even with Drop coverage on Steph and doubles or traps Steph still had an off night game. Missed some wide open shots and bunnies but what he did on defense and using his gravity to creates chances and space for his teammates was great. That lead to other guys getting wide open looks
I think people are expecting Klay to go off in game 6 just because of history, but it will be a monumental task if he does. I predict him to get 25 at best. But being clutch is something we can expect.
Weird way to put it. Teams have limited resources which they deploy strategically. The Celtics defense was specifically designed to stop Curry from scoring points himself and you don't get something without giving something up.
The reason they've been trying NOT to run this defense is because you still lose.
I wouldn’t be so confident if I was a warriors fan. The Celtics have shown time and time again through grit and grind in the playoffs that we should never underestimate them. All it takes is for Tatum or Brown to go off and Curry and Thompson to choke in Game 6 to force a Game 7. And if it gets to that game 7, it’s every man for themselves. Curry has had his history of folding in big time moments and is not much of a closer so I’ll be very excited to see what ends up happening in this great legacy defining series.
I’m so glad Coach Nick highlights how Curry’s presence completely warped Celtics on D. Yes Wiggins had an awesome game, but the game plan was for anyone but Curry to beat them.
literally but clowns don't realize that, his gravity is insane lol they were faceguarding him with bigs near him too leaving the paint wide open. He knew he was attracting so much attention he played it so well 1 turnover 8 dimes +15. Ppl act as if steph averages 20 in the finals in his career. He's at 29 with 39% from the 3 lol and 30.4 in this year's finals probably will end around 33ppg
Just like the Cavs’ strategy of old, the Celtics’ strategy was to stop Curry at all costs.
@@GodsOfSc those same clowns don’t even watch the games, they ONLY look at the stats and make their judgements there. SMH
So now Boston is confused. Should we stops curry or let curry beat us ?
That's why Curry deserves the FMVP.
That Poole's flop against Smart was the funniest moment in the game 😭
He just gave Smart some of his own medicine cause he's a flopper all day and all night.
He learnt from smart, the flop mvp himself.
😂😂😂
INDOONN LOOLLL😂
This isn’t the first time curry and the warriors used this strategy to stretch the defense to play 4v4. They’re prepared for it. In the past, Klay is typically the one to make them pay. He’s just not 100% back.
Klay showed up too tho! Scoring 21 points on 7/14 and shooting 5/11 from 3.. He used to be more lethal before the injury, but he's been great considering he's just back from the 2 major Injuries!
Such great content
@@unbiasOrbit game 6 Klay bout to close this thing out!
Klay washed I’d be surprised if game 6 Klay go over 15
If they continue this defense on Curry, Klay is gonna show up for Game 6 tomorrow
Wiggins aggression in 4th was huge, but its Steph's presence that has opened that up. Truly a team sport.
Ratio + K-pop better 🧑🏼💻🧑🏼💻🧑🏼💻🧑🏼💻🤳🏼🤳🏼🤳🏼🤳🏼🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
Wiggins being the number one option in Minnesota for a while really shows during possessions in these games. Step backs, post-ups, fadeaways, pull-ups, and little hooks.
He really is like a suped-up Harrison Barnes. Great secondary shot creator, excellent defender, and great rebounder. He’s even missing wide open jump shots like it’s 2016 (half-joking).
Insane how when you slow the game down and really analyze every possession, you can see Curry’s impact on the offense and how much he stresses the defense.
Look everything else you said was right except Wiggins was never the number one option in Minnesota
Barnes only needed to hit 2 threes minimum out of about 18 3pa to close out the series
@@trey8725 he led the Timberwolves in FGA for 4 out of 6 seasons and led them in USG% in 3 out of his 6 seasons. That sounds like he was tasked with a lot of the offense.
Jimmy Butler or KAT may have been better, but that doesn’t change the fact that Wiggins was given the offensive load of a number one option
@@MrBonzeMedal if you think fg attempted means he was the number one option you don’t know ball fr he was the second option which is why Minnesota was willing to trade him and stayed to build around KAT
@@trey8725 Fam learn to compromise. And to stop dying on pointless hills.
Regardless if he was your hyper specific definition of a “number one option” you should at least be able to see that in Minnesota he was often times the primary perimeter option to score and play make.
The Warriors played really well as a team even though steph was inefficient tonight. Wiggins was the real player of the game with 26 pts and 13 rebounds. Warriors are one game away to winning the NBA championship!
the NBA what?
@@EL_XO finals
I think Wiggins took the spotlight but many guys came clutch when it mattered. Poole going off late in the third, make the buzzer beater and Klay going off in some key moments of the 2nd half, playing aggressive defense. Draymond also scoring in the 1st half and playing great defense throughout the game. Curry also played elite on defense and using his gravity to get others easy looks. What I would say though Wiggins was by far there most consistent player throughout the game 🏀
@@javierlandaverde4108 That Poole 3 changed the whole game. Celtics took their first lead of the night, crowd was quiet, buzzer was about to go off and the Warriors had been bested in their vaunted third quarter… and then Poole hits that 3, puts the dubs back in the lead, the crowd goes wild, and that was that. All the Celtics momentum gone. Warriors back in the lead to start the 4th. You couldn’t have asked for a better play, especially from so far away.
The sky is blue, and water is wet. Now tell us something else we all know
smart has been flopping all series, i love Poole giving him a taste of his own medicine
Crazy that Steph had such a "bad game" but still had the best +/- in the game at +15.
Ratio + k-pop better 🧑🏼💻🧑🏼💻🧑🏼💻🧑🏼💻🤳🏼🤳🏼🤳🏼🤳🏼🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
In this thread: Lots of people who still don't get it. The Celtics changed their defense to take away Curry's points and make other people score. The problem is, you have to overcommit resources which leaves a lot more space for people like Wiggins to free up.
The Celtics have been hoping not to have to do that this series because you don't have to be a superstar to score at the NBA level with 4x4 spacing, but Curry has been demolishing them trying to play straight up.
Kuminga? For real? What is this Kuminga shit? What has he done in real life?
@@michealdunkin3835 snuck in kuminga like we won't notice
@K Kwill I'm not so sure of this!
@K Kwill lol...
With all that you said, it's really Boston's turnovers that have done them in, particularly POT...
If Boston took care of the ball a lil more, the Cs would have won atleast 1more game so far...
Problem is, the Cs are playing GS like an Eastern Conference team, that has a All-star wing or slasher... Instead, Boston needs to play 1big and move Tatum to PF position...
Immediately, this creates more space, and also gives Tatum a better match-ups in the game... Further, GS has no answer for Rob athleticism at the 5, if the Cs just looked for him more, outside of lobs... A couple of drop off passes to him, that allows him to just elevate over the defense, would really cause GS some problems!
These changes, I believe, would completely change the series...
@K Kwill Never said that... However, Boston's turnover problem has been well documented... So it's not just GSs defense that's causing the problem... With Smart starting at the point, we don't have a traditional guard that can break down the defense and survey for the open man... This leads to Brown and Tatum setting up the offense too much and iso ball that leads to bad possessions. This is further complicated by not having great spacing with to 2 bigs playing...
However, the Cs have been outstanding defensively with this unit, because of the positional size and switchability of this unit...
But facing GS, the Cs really don't need the positional size advantage as much, especially since we are struggling offensively...
But you are right, Boston has been falling for Fool's Gold, with the 3 point shot! That's why I think they need to go smaller and more athletic to create more opportunities in the paint and get JT on a better match-ups...
Even Steph isn't scoring his presence alone is enough. Insane. Only REAL hoppers know Steph's value. People only look at the Box Score & not the actual game itself.
So whoever said there's no more handchecking these days? Smart is handchecking Curry all the time even when Curry doesn't have the ball. And don't say the referees don't see it - they're absolutely allowing Smart to get away with it all series.
Nothing new here tbh. Just watch the 2015-2019 Finals. All teams did the same exact thing or worse. In 2016 they straight pushed him every time he passed them, per coaches instructions. That’s why he bulked up and got even stronger because they were abusing him.
Shhh, the old heads don’t know how to watch the game off ball so they can’t see it, and even if they do I bet they’d say something like “that’s nor REAL handchecking”
LMAO yeah I think it's great for the game that the refs have been letting them play somewhat. Obviously they're inconsistent and shitty sometimes but the physicality of these finals has been great
can we appreciate GP2, wiggins, and the warriors defense..it look amazing last night
Ratio + K-pop better 🧑🏼💻🧑🏼💻🧑🏼💻🤳🏼🤳🏼🤳🏼🤓🤓🤓🤓
They focused so much on Curry they forgot they're a team. Wiggins was unbeatable today.
I thought to myself.......the celtics were like yo STEPH got 43 n10 on us !!!!!!! we gotta stop him.....and the REALLY OVER CORRECTED !!!!!!!!!!!
I was impressed with Curry's defense. He guarded Jayson Tatum for the majority of the game.
Though he didn’t chose that matchup, you’re completely right, but people won’t give him credit. Tatum chose to pass in so many of those opportunities, I was a bit shocked.
Yeah, he really improved on defense these couple of seasons, to the point where calling him a defensive liability is just disrespectful
@@joaoassumpcao3347 Most people don't watch the game very closely or have any real understanding of the game... they just look at stats. It's also why we come to this channel.
@@HypocritesExposd he always showed the effort but he bulked up in the last season now you can't push him around anymore. Then look at someone like James Harden shows no effort inspite of having decent size advantage.
No way bro, he's too small he's a liability smh
It was obvious that Curry used up a lot of juice in G4, normally you'd see him running around a lot more, and clearly the leg fatigue affected his shot too. Hopefully he finds a last burst of energy to bring this one home.
imo the warriors must win game 6 because i don’t see them winning a game 7 on the home court
@@Code0866 I think this is false. Warriors can either close out in Boston or they have home court advantage in game 7. They should be favored to win either game.
It was the way the Celtics was defending him that gave him the most problems. Not necessarily fatigue. Yeah fatigue played a factor but not to the same degree as the Celtics defense tactics to either deny Curry the ball by face guarding or double teaming him at the three point line when he did get the ball.
@@Code0866 theyre like 7-0 off losses and like 9-1 at home so idk why it would be different
@@MrE_ 🎯
I remember Pat Beverley saying that the Celtics struggle alot defending the split, this video confirms it.
Good thing about GSW is that they never depend heavily on their top guns with the like of Thompson and Curry they all work as a team and that's where they get very dangerous..
Unlike Boston that depends on Tatum and Brown
@@TheOnlyWayYeshua Eh, not exactly. Horford is clutch at times. Also, can't underestimate Smart, White, or Robert Williams contributions.
Otherwise, yeah, the Celtics were always inconsistent

@@simanusapolu8943 Celtics were good, Warriors were just better all around. Both can be true without taking away from one another
STRENGTH IN NUMBERS. No divas, No overhyped, overrated, media made, "self proclaimed goat" in this team. STRENGTH IN NUMBERS.
What???
Goat ends at the table serves as a meal
Draymond is definitely a Diva
12:36 When I was watching it live I just knew coach Nick was thinking the "Marcus Smart Experience" lol
Lol when he randomly goes "I'm the hero now" it's always cringe
The gravity Steph demands is exceptional. They basically focused on him all night and he still made key buckets and assists. What a legend.
Remember when people tried to label him as a bust?? I wonder what they’re thinking now.
Andrew Wiggins has been doing it all:
🔶 Leads both teams in rebounds
🔶 Leads both teams in shots contested
🔶 2nd in blocks
🔶 2nd in 4Q scoring
🔶 More PPG than Klay
🔶 Holding Tatum to 37.5% FG
Good breakdown. You didn't say enough about Wiggins though. The idea that Curry's gravity created all of Wiggins' opportunities is an overstatement. Wiggins impact on game 5 tipped the series in GS' favor. Playing both sides of the ball impressively. Hopefully you are doing a video on it.
To be fair, Wiggs has always been consistent when it comes to being aggressive and helping Steph. But compared to the first 4 games where the defensive prowess of the Celtics stopped a lot of his shots, game 5 became relatively easier because of Steph's influence.
Of course, Wiggs deserves a huge appreciation for leading the team in scoring when Steph couldn't but the game changer here was definitely still Steph, even though he had an off night. I think that was the point of the breakdown.
I doubt if you saw the video. He's not saying ALL of Wiggins' opportunities, he's simply saying Curry's gravity opened up his teammates, especially Wiggins. It's the formula used before with Harrison Barnes and Iguodala, then with KD now with Wiggins. It's a great formula and it opens up the 3rd scorer in the team -- the power forward position.
@K Kwill not to this extent
Wiggins proved me wrong. He works well in the warriors system.
He's the ultimate role player (like Harrison Barnes and Iggy). Not the 1st, 2nd or 3rd option on offense. He's just does EVERYTHING ELSE AND ANYTHING ELSE YOU NEED.
even scoring this time. Was great to see
More than just a role player
Wiggs is a great player. But sota stunted his growth. And I'm a wolves fan. 4 coaches in 6 years. And if you are a wolves fan, you would've heard the term Point wiggins at one point. LOL! That's how bad it was.
@@poltergeist8545 wtf i cant imagine wiggins as a pg lol his handles and playmaking r pretty trash
You’re not going to win many series, especially against the Warriors if you’re consistently being kept below the 100pts mark
warriors have hit 100+ in every game on the best defence, this series should be over cause warriors have the better more consistent offence and can match the Celtics on the defensive end, i wouldn’t be surprised if it goes game 7 cause Boston in short Burst are the better team, but warriors the whole series except game 3 have been consistent on both ends through the whole 48mins and that’s all down to championship experience and effort to do that.
Ratio + K-pop better 🧑🏼💻🧑🏼💻🧑🏼💻🧑🏼💻🤳🏼🤳🏼🤳🏼🤳🏼🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
From what I see, the Warriors are the better TEAM.
They might not have the best athletes or individual defenders, but play great as a unit.
Boston literally put a defender on curry's face and accepted to defend all half-court 4 on 4. Curry just got a little bit back and get his defender out of the zone. All this situation really turns into a phenomenon.
this only works in the first half of the game. after a while, you have to give up this tactic and bring back the 5th defense and hope that curry doesn't find his rhythm in the remaining short time.
Otherwise, the rest of the team somehow finds a way to beat you. Even this was a match where gsw had a hard time finding a finisher at certain moments.
Boston may not be this lucky in game 6 if they continue to give up 5th defender all game long.
I mean it's a great defensive strategy that worked, celtics just don't have the offensive firepower to match lmao. The Warriors scored just above 100... Celtics executed their defensive gameplan phenomenally, but they're dumb as fuck on offense + the warriors have elite defense as well.
You can find on RUclips one of Curry’s college games where the other team double-teams him for the whole game, even when he didn’t have the ball! So Curry just ran to whatever part of the court the ball wasn’t on, drawing away two defenders, and the rest of his team crushed the opponents by playing 4 on 3 for the whole game. Curry will gladly step back and hand the ball over to whoever’s hot, he’s never been a ball hog. Throwing extra defensive resources at Curry just means he’s helping free up the rest of the offense.
@@ijustyap Yeah, but they missed opens 3's. I think it is safe to claim that wiggins could make 2 or 3 3-point shots. But he couldn't make those shots. Also even though klay hit 5 3-point shots but could hit more. Or Steph may be better next time even if they defend him that well. So that means at least adding 10 more difference.
The problem here is that the strategy lowers the ability to defend the paint or pass angles.Because the other 4 players can move much more easily in such a field, which is something that a team playing motion offense will happily accept.
Lets remember how clevland defend curry when they get the championship. They made almost same thing. They had no as good guard defender as boston has right now so they doubled curry in first half of the games. Rather than what Clevland did, Boston put a guy near him in almost every position. But at one point they stoped this strategy and began to defend others too. Because there are little time left, curry strageled to get his rhtyme even there isn't second defender on his face anymore and others couldn't make shoots as much as they did at the beginning of the games since they were defended more tightly.
I don'ts say it's a bad strategy. I just thing you should know when to leave it and rely on time left.

Curry garnering a ton of attention even when he's off is just like being scared of someone with a loaded gun even if they haven't shot you... Curry is always a danger when he's on the court and whatever you've done is basically luck....
There was an SNL sketch where the actor playing Stephen A Smith said, “Curry’s such a great shooter, he can shoot the ball from the court, onto a 1st class seat of a nearby airplane, and five hours later, have it drop through the hoop at Madison Square Garden. SWISH!” 😂
@@JasonBoyce everytime I watch Stephen A now it's like he's doing a lower key impression of Chris Redd.
He was off BECAUSE off the attention. Good lord.
@@michaelterry7647 but no 3s? That hasn't happened in 4 years. He was still +15, which means he was still affecting the game. He won't go scoreless from 3 again. That was fluky.
@@Cagon415 Shots aren't taken in a vacuum. If you're being face-guarded and blitzed all game, it affects how rushed open 3s feel.
I promise if if they stopped diverting defensive attention to him, he would have started making plenty of 3s, just like he will next game if they revert to games 1-4 defense where they dared Curry to beat them.

Celtics didn't stop Curry from doing anything 💯
Its as it has always been all of the warriors doing their part… strength in numbers
Wiggins and Klay deserve their own video for how they played defense.
Actually wiggins showed this to us against lebron in the play in last year, as he held lebron to sub par shooting percentages. And this season he's helping on offense a lot more, amazing to see.
Another great breakdown but yet bozos want to claim Wiggins leaped over Steph for FMVP :eyeroll:
Big eyeroll
Klay game 6 coming up next.. 💥💥💥💥
Every superstars get doubled team but I rarely see anyone guarded like Steph if any. That's why he makes everyone around him look good except maybe Oubre for some weird reasons.
Oubre played well towards the end it took him a while to learn the system
@@kennyduarte6744 yea oubre had his moments. But the offensive differential with curry on/off was borderline stupid.
Oubre didn't fit because of his basketball IQ. His read and react skills were terrible. Plus he didn't like that the offense was heavily revolved around steph.
Been waiting all day for this breakdown
Its barely 11am bro.

I like the way Coach's voice was monotone before the ad then went back to normal after it.
Man ! It’s crazy all Boston defense eyes on curry . Even without the ball.. He had 8 assists. Despite Curry offense was rough had huge impact on winning the game . Role players are getting open shots cus of him.
Wiggins been playing like a man
wiggins went godmode last night
This Noom transition add MY God... this is a classic I always enjoy your smooth transition, You were a huge inspiration for me to start RUclips and now that I am monitize I can't wait to get a deal and start doing smooth transitions like you
7:49 look at belijica get so mad when curry doesn’t take the 3 Im hollering 😂😂
Wow, even when Curry is not playing well, he is still helping the team by just being there. The Celtics' hyper-focus on Curry allowed Wiggins, Draymond, and Klay to play a great game.
Oh and don't forget GP2 he had more Bench points than the ENTIRE Celtics bench squad !!!!!!!!!!!!!
The warriors haven’t closed out on the road in any series yet. Denver, Memphis , and Dallas. Now in the finals it’s finally time to close out on the road.
Well done as usual
🙏🏀
Interesting stats in the end about Steph's 3-point shots, Coach Nick. A lil dose of Jimmy Highroller there lol.
That "marcus smart holds a family reunion" had me crakin
😂😅
One of the best basketball game by game analysts on RUclips
Them having a former number 1 pick and him not even at his peak is deadly for this team to be completely honest.
He's at his peak. Unfortunately the media and fans over-hyped him so much. It's not his fault. He's a really good player but not a superstar. Still a very important piece to their roster. Wiggins is like a combination of prime Iggy and Harrison Barnes
@@PalmdalesAdonis if we're going off of stats and impact alone as far as you saying his a combo of Iggy and Barnes I'd say that's false go look at the numbers Wiggins is doing far better than Barnes in these finals compared to Barnes
@@SenorAzazel the disrespect to call wiggins harrison barnes is insane lmao
@@ijustyap fr I was like huh I know Wiggins is way better than Barnes
@@SenorAzazel that's just my opinion. He's averaging 18 points 9 rebounds and 2 assists. Iggy averaged 16 points 4 assists and 7 rebounds. I'm saying he's a combination of Iggy and Barnes because Iggy played great defense and was their best on ball defender and Harrison Barnes had post up moves and the 3 ball. I'm comparing the 2015 version of Iggy and Barnes to Wiggins by the way not the 2016 version of Barnes and Iggy
To me they didn't Curry he just missed a lot of shots he normally makes.
It was a mix of both.
I like that " Family reunion" (10.30) LOL

He played great defense, he played great offense, he rebounded, he made clutch plays, he made hustle plays, and more important he made winning plays!
I'm here after Curry bounce back in game 6 from game 5 to win the Chip
man basketball seems like so much fun to get into watching
This just highlights why Drop Coverage was actually the right answer to guarding the Warriors - make Steph beat you. Sure he might drop 30. But the rest of the team won't get hot. For some reason game 3 wasn't enough evidence for people
but then g4 happened
Right, but if they're gonna lose at least make sure Curry isn't the one casuals credit for it.

You did it again. Best breakdowns on the internet.
Congrats on the trending video, Coach.
For me I hope this is an eye opening experience for the haters out there. It's not always fair to blame a player for their poor development. In fact it's pretty rare for a so called 'bust' to have failed because of lack of effort or even inherent talent.
More often than not it's actually certain organizations who don't prioritize play and development programs for players and sometimes it's just being drafted to a bad situation that leads to their under achievement.
Instead of hopping on Twitter and putting these kids on blast maybe we should put pressure on teams and the league to get the best basketball possible from each and every player.
Great analysis and well narrated. I appreciate the Incredible work that went into this. 👍
Thanks for this amazing breakdown and slowing the footage down so we could make sense of how they were guarding curry.
is nobody else gonna mention how the music is in sync with each of those warriors buckets? nice attention to detail there

Everybody on the team knows EXACTLY what to do...where to be....when to be there....what to do when they get there....what to do if the plan fails....when to cut...when to switch....when to screen....WHO to screen...when to shoot...when to pass......and ALL of this is happening in a FLASH. U can't be no DUMMY playing on the Warriors. U have to be a THINKER. This is why they're so hard to beat. I just LOVE watching them play.
1:52 LOOK HOW MUCH CURRY STRETCHES THE FLOOR?! 😅😅😅😅 BRO!
BRO!
Great D by the Celts esp by Smart. Their loss down to two things: TOs 18:6, and iso ball by Jaylen Brown who shot 5:18.
Agreed
Wiggins and Poole are so fast with the ball it’s incredible
At 3:00 there was a dubnation video that thought this was Steph going to the corner since Smart didnt let him cut
and i agree with thwm
if it was a screening action wiggins wouldnt have disappeared into the paint before setting a screen
They run an organic motion offense. Whenever Curry comes out from the basket area, there’s an automatic pin down for him
Celtics didn't "stop" Curry. He missed lots of shots he normally makes.
No they stopped him. He wasn't getting wide open shots out of drop coverage like the first 4 games.
eveb the bench were all eyes on curry just look where the majority of them was looking at around 1:25
All those numbers at the end got me spooked out. I lit 16 candles here at home, got my hoodie on, and am sprinkling salt all over the place.
I don't think they stopped him.
I think he was tired after a major 43 point...Game.
"He Marcus Smart'd Marcus Smart."😂
Coach!!
Great video coach Nick, mad props to your weight loss journey!!!
Thanks so much! It’s a looooong journey lol,
Boston did not limit Steph, Steph missed shots and had a bad night.
Awesome analysis. I hope the Warriors got it. Steph gets it. Thank you for this vlog.
My pleasure! Stay tuned for the video on Game 6!
Curry cannot be stop
He scored 16 with 8 assists!
Everybody shown up so he just needs to be there for the double or trouble team so someone must be open.
Ratio + K-pop better 🧑🏼💻🧑🏼💻🧑🏼💻🤳🏼🤳🏼🤳🏼🤳🏼🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
I always look forward to your breakdowns. So cool
Thanks so much!!
The Noom segue was slick well done.
Woohooo Coach Nick looking goood!!
Coach’s ad transition game 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Indeed the most valuable player this series!!
Great analogy… Thanks!
Smart tried to flop-frame Klay with and offensive foul, but refs didn't fall for it. 😅
as if Klay "the one that just came back from 2 major surgeries " Thompson can push the 2022 DPOY that far.
