Klay Thompson sets NBA record with 37 Points in a Quarter

[QUOTE=tpols]Guy I quoted said "imagine how much Harden would score if he got assisted 88%"

There's no proof for their differing skillets.. It's.. Watching the game and seeing how they play. You want a number for that.. It doesn't exist.

We could pull up Reggie miller's shot chart and see he's assisted way more than Harden.. And when the % assist shows much higher than Harden and some guy says "LOL imagine if Harden got assisted as much as Reggie miller" he'd look just as dumb as saying it with klay.

Harden doesn't have as good an off ball game as them.. That's just as much a skill as harden being able to cross guys. I recognized both skillets.. You assume playing off ball is somehow easier.. Which makes no sense. We know Hardens game.. He isn't going to sprout into Reggie Miller if he plays next to say Chris Paul.. If anything we'd see a lebron Wade effect there.[/QUOTE]

I was never arguing how much they would score, I was arguing shooting percentages.

[QUOTE=UK2K]Harden was playing with a D-league roster the first month and a half, his shooting % suffered.

I chose to use the period when both players had healthy teams.

Sorry.[/QUOTE]
Im lost. What are we arguing?

[QUOTE=UK2K]Then stop responding.

And no they don't.

RPG
Korver 4.2
Thompson 3.6

APG
Korver 2.9
Thompson 3.1

Because you watched a highlight video? He's a much better defender, but he isn't a much better passer, or rebounder, and he's not a better shooter.[/QUOTE]
Much better defender and he can create his own shot. Gets to the FT line more then Korver. Why isn't Korver averaging 20 ppg on the Hawks then . They are a good passing team.

[QUOTE=Heavincent]We all know this only about your Lebron agenda. You don't give a **** about Klay.

You're just mad because Curry is the MVP front runner :oldlol:[/QUOTE]

wtf Heav? What does this have anything to do with Lebron? He wont win any MVP this season so whats the matter?

....and Curry has always been one of my favorite players in the league, including Klay, i love all/any pure shooters and with this performance tonight from Klay i have just become a "Klaytard" :bowdown:

[QUOTE=navy]Im lost. What are we arguing?[/QUOTE]
He's arguing that Harden is the better player because he gets to dribble around, through his legs, step back, twirl around, do a little dance, play with his va[COLOR="Black"]g[/COLOR]ina, and chuck his brains out.

I wish Rockets fans would stop embarrassing themselves right now. I love my Rockets and Harden but give credit where it is due. I honestly believe Harden is still the better player but sometimes you just gotta chill and let the players speak for themselves. Let Klay have his night and leave it at that.

This. Harden had a great night, but enough with the Klay vs Harden debate. Klay just made ****ing history!

Klay that was one of the greatest things I have ever seen thank you

Because Klay takes 17 shots per game, and Korver takes 8?

Spineless.

[QUOTE=UK2K]Because Klay takes 17 shots per game, and Korver takes 8?[/QUOTE]
Klay can score outside of 3s, which is the difference.

The salt is real, best SG in the game. Period. Klay not starting in the ASG this year is/would've been a travesty the likes of which the NBA has never seen before.

[QUOTE=UK2K]Because Klay takes 17 shots per game, and Korver takes 8?[/QUOTE]
Why is that? Probably because he not a top SG :facepalm

Klay just served up a big steak and select posters are sprinkling on the salt.

Just saw the highlights, not all the shots were open and they were right in the face of the defender + beyond the arc...… klay was insane…

Xsatyr and smook are cool Rockets fans. Most of the other ones are embarrassing.

[QUOTE=juju151111]Why is that? Probably because he not a top SG :facepalm[/QUOTE]
He averages 13 a game on 8 shots.

If he took 17 shots per, what do you think he'd average? Honestly.

Bandwagon chimp calling someone spineless, now I've heard everything.

Imagine if Tyson Chandler took 20 shots a game :eek:

[QUOTE=UK2K]He averages 13 a game on 8 shots.

He not heavily featured because he not a top SG. If the Hawks felt that way he would be more featured.

If Kover can maintain his efficiency while doubling his FGA, the Hawks would be absolutely retarded not to let him shoot more.

Kover is a great player who plays within the flow of the offense, which gives him 8 shots a game.

on my fantasy team almost forgot to start him :lol

Klay Thompson is an ASSASSIN! - kevin harlan

FLAWLESS VICTORY! - Shao Kahn

[QUOTE=juju151111]He not heavily featured because he not a top SG. If the Hawks felt that way he would be more featured.[/QUOTE]
He's not heavily featured because the Hawks have three other all stars on their team, thus their record. He doesn't have to take 17 shots for them to win.

You could use the same logic with Harden in OKC. "But but if he was a top SG he'd be featured more"

[QUOTE=Burgz V2]on my fantasy team almost forgot to start him :lol[/QUOTE]
He got me 95.5 tonight.

Glorious.

Are you seriously trying to argue that Korver is equally as talented as Thompson?

Harden was a young emerging player who was still growing and paying his dues. Korver is 33...

[QUOTE=pauk]In only 32 mins a game...... ridicilous...

Just like i said at the start of the season, this is why i dont think Curry should win MVP, yes Curry handles the ball more fancily & dishes more, but Klay is just as good/valuable and if not better/more valuable (certainly made his case with this performance which Curry will never be able to touch in his career)..... as good of a shooter Curry has been, Klay might be even better....

...and oh, Klay is officially my choice for the best SG in the game.[/QUOTE]
STFU PAUK

Harden was featured numnuts while he was on OKC. Way more then Kyle is on Hawks .

Is there a video of his 3rd quarter out yet? Bah gawd, I wish I was watching this game...I was gonna commit this night to just relaxing and watching league pass, and I saw the ATL game (awesome game btw) and thought ehh, can't nothing top this, and started playing 2k after. Some 4 hours later I realize that I just missed out on a historic event :cry:

:oldlol: Those shots towards the end were so ****ing ridiculous. Kings bench like :wtf:

[QUOTE=KNOW1EDGE]Are you seriously trying to argue that Korver is equally as talented as Thompson?[/QUOTE]
No.

I am saying if you swapped Korver for Thompson, Golden State's record would be similar to what it is now.

That doesn't mean Korver is better than Thompson. That's why I never said it.

[QUOTE=JimmyMcAdocious]:oldlol: Those shots towards the end were so ****ing ridiculous. Kings bench like :wtf:[/QUOTE]

What can you do besides get a hand in his face?

Durant had that stretch last season when WB went down, where no amount of defense could slow him down.

When you're on, you're on.

:applause:

Like I said before, great performance, and a record I don't think will ever be broken.

Saying that though...

Curry is still the MVP.
Harden is still better than Klay.
And Klay is still the 2nd best SG.

props to Step Curry. Once he recognized Klay was hot, he just kept passing the ball to Klay. Westbrook or Kobe woulda hogged the ball and disrupted Klay's rhythm.

[QUOTE=russwest0]that ass doesn't impress me[/QUOTE]

She a vampire tho.

:bowdown: :bowdown:

Klay is now part of elite company :applause: :applause: :applause:

That's because he can't get more than 8 shots per game since he can't drive and he isn't always open. You act like shot attempts grow on trees.
