He has scored less than 10 points in at least 4 Finals games. He is easily one of the worst 2nd options in Finals history.

Dont start the parade yet...Klay is coming

How does one create one of the greatest dynasties of all time with a 2nd and 3rd option that literally cannot dribble a basketball.

Let that legit sink in for a second.

Not to mention getting wide open looks from Curry constantly drawing double coverage 30+ feet from the basket

No one has shown me a worse scoring and efficiency combo than pippen's 15 on 34% in the 96' Finals

Because it doesn't exist.. it's the worst offensive performance ever for a 2nd option

Oh so you missed the list let me repost for you

Klay hasn't been a second option in forever since 2016...and even then Iggy/Draymond were just as important.

Show Klay's finals stats in 17/18 as what, the 3rd-4th option in any given game?

Well what the hell do you think it would take to beat a 73 win team? :lol

For starters one player would need to need to lead every single player in the series in every single category. Then he would need to have the greatest Finals game in NBA history (#1 GameScore), followed by the greatest back-to-back performance in NBA history and the greatest 3 game stretch in NBA history. All the while elevating Kyrie to levels we never thought possible.

Bron Ball is the only way the Warriors would have lost that year.

COME AT ME BRO

Disgraceful, these Curry stans. Throwing his teammates under the bus.

Not that he hasn't been bad, but I'd say having a dude drop 30-35 per game on insane efficiency more than makes up for Klay's lackluster scoring production in the Finals

Why does OP use FG% when all Klay usually does is shoot 3s?
