In the midst of his shooting struggles, I think people (myself included) have forgotten who Klay Thompson really is. Shooting #s will be up and down for everyone, but only a few players can take their play to another level when needed. Klay is doing it once again. (x/x)

Denver's defense is the most unique "good defense" in the league They have one base coverage (high hedge) but execute that extremely well due to their personnel. I questioned whether they had the requisite backline defenders but MPJ has made immense growth in that regard this yr
