Come on, man. I dislike Klay, but did you just compare Klay's shooting explosion to the one quarter in Marty's 8 yr career where he wasn't garbage?
The big difference between Klay and C.J. is not on the offensive end, it's on defense. Yeah again, Klay benefits from his size advantage, but he's a very good perimeter defender. BNM
Aside from height I don't see much difference between Dame and KD. And given the difference in height there should be a HUGE difference between Dame and KD.
I guess I'm saying that I don't think CJ is as bad a defender as people make him out to be. It appears that he gets torched mostly because of the defensive system he's playing in. I don't think he has the frame for it, but if he could bulk up I think the gap between Klay's defense and CJ's defense would shrink - not to zero, but enough. Klay is the better defender, and probably always will be. Partly due to size, but also partially to skill. But overall I just don't think Klay is head-and-shoulders better than CJ.
No question....Klay Thompson is clear choice (if only 1 can be selected). Valenchunous from Raptors. Adams from Thunder. Thompson from Cavs.
Only pick one player you assholes! I'd be very tempted to take Klay Thompson and make him our starting SF, but I'd probably go with the big Lithuanian center from Toronto.
