Love this two brother.
Dubs🌉
We need the other 3 brothers. Curry Andre that would be beautiful. Dray
yeah there's definitely something going on with the NBA about Mark Jackson maybe politics or maybe he just doesn't wanna be a coach after golden states success
Bro yalls statues are gonna be so dope. Unveiled at the same time hopefully, gonna be a great moment
I love you Klay ❤❤❤❤
They really the 1st dynasty in the social media era. These boys legendary
Why is Iggy not heavily as mentioned along with the big 3 😢
The Dubs have taken the first half of the 2023-24 season to rebuild the team into a serious threat to win it all at the end of the year. Every team in the West should fear this "new-and-improved" Warriors force of nature who play lock-down defense and almost indefensible offense. Any combo of players on the floor can match up with any other team in the league when they minimize turnovers and maximize the extra pass. They have serious rim protection and a strong paint game for the first time now and, if they can keep it all together and stay healthy, the sky's the limit for these guys!
The Dubs – and especially Steph and Klay – have taken the NBA from a game of checkers to a game of chess. Their style of play has transformed basketball from a WWE wrestling match into a beautiful, balanced, "ALL talents matter" game that, for me, is an absolute joy to watch. You can keep your Lambeers and your Malones and give me a game where, even if you're team is behind or ahead by 15 with 6 minutes left or 8 with one minute to play, you're not leaving the arena just yet.
This was refreshing Klay is a classic Aquarius ! Ha
From A hoop fan this is one of the best interviews out
Okay just tell this man he be bugging tf out sometimes 😂
Yo Draymond!!! We done with the 90s!!! So no need for the peoples elbow from the top rope anymore 😅.
Klay is taking it easy on Draymond. The last incident wasn't even a foul on him, it was on Wiggins. It was great sticking up for Wiggins, but he needs to look at the bigger picture. The Warriors' don't have a gap where they can't win without him. It's good hearing a long interview with Klay. He's been through a lot and he's a very introspective and reflective guy.
I love friends and brotherly love. We are so blessed as fans to have you 3 on our team.
We want podcast with kd and poole😂😂
I'm lost… has Dray never had these conversation about ejections with Curry or Klay? If not, that is a leadership issue and red flags 🚩🚩🚩🚩
a love klay so much
I don't comment….but this is EMMY dialog….DG, The BEST Defense, is to grab-a-teamate/Coach Kerr, for any help on OR off-court….because two are better than one, and a 3-cord strand is not quickly broken. Ecclesiastical 4:12.🎉
Klay is great person, nobody gonna make me hate himm!!!
Loved this conversation!
Klay my favorite player got blessed
Amazing segment
He about to retire talking like he a third year player🤣🤣I'm a work in progress, Green a 1st class troll.
After hearing Klay’s response. Draymond if you get ejected again that’s on you and total disrespect to Klay and Steph!
Dray dray 🙂🙂 my guy
Love Klay, great interview
This was a GREAT episode. 💯
Big Faccs! Dub Nation till the wheels fall off 30:42
What is worst a player the gets kicked out of a game or a player that don't play because he is taking a game off to rest
Good.
You can see how much respect Klay, Draymond and Steph have for Mark Jackson. There would be no Steve Kerr without Mark Jackson, he is the one who set the Warriors up for success
Its gonna be a very sad day when this team is all done…. Nba legends Fr (coming from a celtics fan)
Great episode, Klay is always been my favourite player so thanks dray for the interview .. keep up the good work 🙏
Wow, this was a fun one. I just want to say as a warriors fan that Klay is absolutely awesome, and with regards to the greatest shooter of all time, I think both Steph and Klay are, with Steph being 1(a) & Klay being 1(b). 🤷🏾♂️
