He does bro and I only hear him of course in just interviews like these but he constantly does and half the time he even looks like “why is that so funny?”
@@baldheadkid Yeah as someone who’s not religious this “god fearing” thing makes me feel some type of way. Also I never heard Catholics in Europe use that expression…only with American Christians
This is the greatest interview with Klay I have ever seen. In his own home with two other Warrior brothers, he is just so relaxed and open. Props to the Smoke Team for making this happen.
@@kingdavid5932 coming from someone who struggles with eye contact, I think it’s an anxiety thing. It may seem I’m disconnected from the conversation but eye contact is very uncomfortable for me.
Klay grinding getting back right and healthy over the few years has been impressive, but I’ve been just as impressed by how much more open he’s become over the years. It was VERY SELDOM to hear Klay speak. He has definitely let his guard down and got out his shell.
I’m glad this dropped, and tbh the injuries were devastating, but there were some good that came from it, like Klay talked about how he discovered loads of new things he enjoyed other than basketball since he had so much time I think he’s a lot more open like you said after coming back and he seems really comfortable in the NBA
For me the most memorable is when he buried the Kings all by himself. That was an unreal performance, he did not miss a shot on that quarter even on last seconds where he got fouled.
I recall Jermaine O'Neal saying on your podcast that he witnessed Klay and Steph having shooting contests and if a shot hit the rim and went in....IT DIDN'T COUNT! Continuing to root for you Klay! Congratulations All the Smoke! You guys continue to outdo yourselves!
I played against Klay when he was at Washington state. He was a freshman when I was a senior. People don’t realize how nice he was even back then. We saw the glimpses and the perfect shooting form he had but he put all the work in to get to this point. Dude deserves all the success he’s gotten, and he’s nowhere close to being done yet. Keep up the great work Klay! 👌🏽🏀
That kobe "what's up" was his way of acknowledging your work ethic, and letting you know that he sees you working. It was professional respect and encouragement
Klay has been through a lot in the last three years with his injuries. I’m so glad he came back and won another championship. So glad to see this interview!! Klay is a cool person on and off court!
I want Giannis on the show! That would be the funniest interview ever because he’s so nice but funny at the same time I’d love to hear him talk about some of his poster dunks in a humble way
This is an amazing episode. It's special to listen to Klay talk, so glad you guys were able to have him on the show. He's been through so much and the work he's put in to overcome two major injuries back to back is truly inspiring. This is one of my favourite interviews you guys have ever shared, thank you All the Smoke! 🙏🏻🔥
Watched this man drop 9 or 10 3’s on the pacers back in 2014. Before the chips before all the hype. Ever since I been all in on these guys. Love this franchise from the front office to the players. Well oiled machine that will be great for years to come. It’s such a great time to be a warriors fan and going thru a 2 year slump with your team makes it so much more special. Klay is such a genuine guy and he deserves all that he has. Such a hard worker. Let’s go get number 5!!!! #dubnation
Btw this episode was way overdue. I thought he’d be on soon after Steph in the first season but I hope they can get our young guys on! JORDAN POOLE NEXT
Got 3 Warriors vs Pelicans tickets for 60$ in New Orleans Beginning of the 2014-2015 szn. Jrue and Tyreke both had 30+. Street Clothes(AD) was hurt. Steph didn’t dribble once I swear, and he seemed to always be open in both corner, had over 30. Klay was red hot. Livingston ate. Iggy was everywhere. Pelicans had the game, Warriors came back, overtime and Warriors won. Great memory. Will never get Warrior tickets that cheap again
It's something about a low maintenance, humble, Superstar that makes you root for them even if they're not on your team. Klay, Steph, Giannis... you just feel the seriousness of the game with the playful joy of a kid and to not ever be really caught up in Scandal is inspiring. Shout out to Klay for a great interview, definitely one of my favorites from Matt and Stak so far.
Matt Barnes is a natural interviewer and has such a measured speaking voice. Plus he has the insight of a seasoned unbiased NBA veteran. Jackson brings that edge as well, to make this duo great podcasters.
Klay is funny af without trying ! 😂 I’m so glad he’s back and came back in time to win #4. I love the way he’s publicly giving props to KD. You can tell those were a good time for him , despite public opinion. Can’t wait to see what he’ll do this season 💪🏾
I watched the entire Ep while eating two cheeseburgers. Seriously, one of the BEST 1:26:58 of my entire life! Ya'll had me choking on beef at least 5 damn times!! 🤣😂 Reminds me of the days I used to kick it with my homies in OakTown on 98 Ave in the 70s! Keep keep'n it real yo!!
Klay is one of the nicest guys out there. It’s really nice to see someone appreciate the people around them like Klay does. He doesn’t have that “superstar” attitude. I used to live near where he lives and it’s absolutely gorgeous there. The Bay Area is a special place.
I love Klay’s energy. He’s just at peace with himself, just always positive. Student of the game. Just an amazing human being to say the least. Love this guy 💪🏾🔥
Klay is such a good dude. He is so chill. Dub Nation is grateful to all that Klay has provided to the Bay Area. Future Hall of Famer. Another great episode.
Best interview! Matt and Stack are so great with these amazing players (it helps when you're from the same frat). And it's awesome to FINALLY get an interview with Klay that is longer than a soundbite. Great job all!💙💛🏀
WOW!!! ALL THE SMOKE brings out the heart and soul of their guests. This SMOKE was absolutely extraordinary hearing the truth about Klay's healing physically, spiritually, family and his core peeps helping him back to just being Klay. God Bless. Congrats Champ!!
The only thing I regret growing up is not taking my offer to Washington State as a kid, I'd of been a PG on that team. SMALL WORLD. Glad to see Klay make the comeback and get his groove a lot sooner than I think a lot of us realized or hoped.
@Vichinsky Elien My physical showed I had scoliosis which I never knew I even had and the school's doctor I had said I need to stop playing basketball immediately. They did not clear me which at the time was devastating but it's all good! I was just young and not educated enough on making the right decision. I also did not have the right people around me, so lesson learned. I went pro in something else though, designing 3d animation for some of the same players I grew up watching so I'm content I still ball out though as much as possible and haven't had any major issues with my back, at least not yet. Lol
This is such a good episode!! It’s so fun to hear Klay talk so much and relive all of these memories and tell stories! I listen to podcasts all the time and this is by far the most genuine one!!
This has to be one of the top interviews of All The Smoke. So glad he's back and healthy. Splash Brothers had a Poole Party is the best line ever. lmao
Feet out, dog roaming around at his house, holding a basket ball the while time, looking directly at thr camera sometimes, talking about having a sack and playing rockband. I love that Klay is the opposite of what you expect an all time great to be. My favorite Warrior. Just a down to earth good guy who loves to hoop.
He’s so unintentionally funny every damn time you give him time on the mic. Possibly the least hatable guy ever alongside Steph despite being constant winners. Crazy man much love to Klay and the crew

“Got a nice lil sack on me, gonna be a decent night, might play some Rock Band” - Klay Thompson 😂😂 Klay is so funny without trying
I was hollering along with Stack🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Stack was dying of the wholesomeness 🤣
I started busting out laughing when he said that klays a funny dude man lol
😭😭😭rockband goated
He does bro and I only hear him of course in just interviews like these but he constantly does and half the time he even looks like “why is that so funny?”
Klay’s a cool dude. Humble. Appreciative. Grateful. God fearing.
Just curious - does God teach people to "fear" Him? Or is it something people feel naturally?
And clearly had a bit or enough herb smoke
@@baldheadkid 🤣. I, too, enjoy fiction.
@@baldheadkid Yeah as someone who’s not religious this “god fearing” thing makes me feel some type of way. Also I never heard Catholics in Europe use that expression…only with American Christians
@@Nawalta Right? Putting aside whatever your definition of "God"... I would love to understand the point of view of someone who "fears" He/She/It.
This is the greatest interview with Klay I have ever seen.
In his own home with two other Warrior brothers, he is just so relaxed and open.
Props to the Smoke Team for making this happen.
The Silent Assassin!!!
@@TimeIsMoney-777Klay really is that guy💯💯
The BEST all the smoke episode. The sun shining into Klays living room. Him laying back one leg crossed and closing his eyes reliving shit. Amazing!
And that boy Rocko on the couch
^lmao I was just about to say Rocko just chilling and listening, for a fat min I thought forgot Rocko was there thought it was another guest 😂
Kobe was the best one. But I loved this one too
This is a strong #2 behind the E-40 and Too Short episode. E-40 was on one that day.

Comment goated ❤ 💯
You can tell Klay was in a dark place, can’t even hold back the enthusiasm. Happy for bro! Good luck on the rest of the season champ!
Notice how often Klay mentions how grateful he is for everyone in his life. Perfect attitude.
When Klay said " Gonna be a decent night. Might play rock band." I absolutely lost it lmaoo
Always loved the way Klay carried himself. Very humble
Dime sack + Rock Band = Decent night for Klay Thompson
Bro that was so relatable for that era 😂
Klay so laid back, it really feels like chilling with one of the homies
This is the first show I have ever seen Klay talk so much. Matt & Stax worked miracles.
You can tell as the interview progressed, he was getting comfortable.
You should check out the interview Klay did with Serge Ibaka cooking show. Just enter Klay Thompson's interview with Serge Ibaka. You will love it.
Klays vibes are unmatched 😂
You already know🧠
The no eye contact kinda bothers me.. but he's cool
@@kingdavid5932 why hes just vibing man i see nothing wrong with it. Wat u want everyone to look at u like they wanna kiss u
@@kingdavid5932 coming from someone who struggles with eye contact, I think it’s an anxiety thing. It may seem I’m disconnected from the conversation but eye contact is very uncomfortable for me.
@@kingdavid5932 you’re exaggerating. he does make eye contact with both guys and they all avoid eye contact when talking sometimes.

The SMOKE is so real!!!
Props for getting Klay to talk as much as he did on this interview. Love Klay.
Klay is such a chill dude, real relaxed vibe, great to see him healthy this season, let’s go Warriors 👏👏👏🙌
Likable guy. Definitely needs to work on his geography. Bahamas, the other end of the world? From the perspective of a guy in the US? Haha, ok Klay.
In a game Klay scored 60pts on only 11 dribbles, that’s crazy! 🔥🏀
Dats some wilt shit 😂
And after all that he is still wasn’t voted in to the top 75. Wtf?!?
@@giovanni4u117 That list is a joke, with clowns doing the voting.
For me the most memorable is when he buried the Kings all by himself. That was an unreal performance, he did not miss a shot on that quarter even on last seconds where he got fouled.
I hated GS through their run, but Klay is someone I'll always wish was on my team, Dray too.
BRUH I LOVE KLAY😂…. He talking straight to the camera and not Matt and then 🤣🤣🤣🤣PROTECT KLAY THOMPSON AT ALL COST
Fr lol foot all in Matt face too . You can see Matt and jack looking at his foot a few times looking like wtf
On some lightskin behaviour
I recall Jermaine O'Neal saying on your podcast that he witnessed Klay and Steph having shooting contests and if a shot hit the rim and went in....IT DIDN'T COUNT!
Continuing to root for you Klay!
Congratulations All the Smoke! You guys continue to outdo yourselves!
I love Klay, man. Hardworking, down to earth, honest. A real man.
Klay is living his best life.
Very well deserved.
Does "red state" mean democrat?
Fact🎉
Klay just wanna get high and play rock band 🤣🤣🤣 love this guy man
For that imma take in his massive contract in 2k lol
he definitely took a fat dab 😂😂
Klay making Stephen Jackson LOL for a solid 30 seconds 😂😂
This is definitely one of my favorite episodes to date. Klay is SO down-to-earth & humble for a man who's reached the levels of success that he has.
I played against Klay when he was at Washington state. He was a freshman when I was a senior. People don’t realize how nice he was even back then. We saw the glimpses and the perfect shooting form he had but he put all the work in to get to this point. Dude deserves all the success he’s gotten, and he’s nowhere close to being done yet.

I love how honest Klay is. He's unapologetically himself. Great and funny guy.
Over an hour of Klay talking!!! Let's goooo!! Good job Kings
Klay is my favorite person in the league. My man is hilarious 😂
This is the best Klay Thompson interview ever 🤩
He sounds like a man that’s just grateful for everything.
Klay has been through a lot in the last three years with his injuries. I’m so glad he came back and won another championship. So glad to see this interview!! Klay is a cool person on and off court!
The best episode so far this season. Klays personality is a one of one. Humble, wise and funny
Klay with the toes out, comfy. So inspirational
This is the most I have ever seen Klay talk during an interview. He is so open on this one. I'm excited to see him blossom both on the court and off.
“Gotta nice lil sack on me, ok gon be a decent night; might play rockband” 💀☠️😂😂😂
Kontroversial Klay
HAHAHA ..he was serious too
Klay is so Chill … I don’t think the nba world really gives him the credit he deserves… Two way player
Matt: “welcome to fresh ball fall, it’s the season of pumpkin spice, and making sure your crush looks nice…”
Had me dead 😂
I want Giannis on the show! That would be the funniest interview ever because he’s so nice but funny at the same time I’d love to hear him talk about some of his poster dunks in a humble way
