I've Been rooting for him ever since he got into the league. He is a hard worker and plays amazing defense. He looks more athletic than ever and his confident is out of this world. I wasn't really sure about Steve Kerr but a great shooter coaching other great shooters can only bring positive results. Deron Williams I heart you but Klay is slowly becoming my number one.

He really surprised me with his defensive abilities during the World Championships. If he carries that over to the regular season, that will be great news for Warriors and his all D chances.

Warriors' Klay Thompson leaves Kobe raving
..."He has the whole package," Bryant said of Thompson, who grew up in Southern California idolizing the Lakers star.

Got plenty of props from Kobe himself :confusedshrug:

He played great defense throughout last season, so it's not really surprising.

Didn't really pay any attention to the Warriors until the playoffs, and even then it wasn't in depth. Never cared for their jump shot happy style.

At this stage, fat Felton can probably shut Kobe down.

Thompson is a solid defender by he's not a shut down one like Tony Allen. Kobe is a shell of himself.

Allen is not a two-way player so his number one role is to defend. He does not have to spend too much energy on offense.

I think we all know that Klay is a great defender, he made a great job on CP in the playoffs, but he didn't shut down Kobe.
It's only PS and Kobe had a off night, not to mention the doubles (sometimes even off the ball) because the Lakers have no other threat.
