I love Klay's confidence, but without Curry he's shown some legitimate limitations. He's best as a second fiddle, but that's okay. I'm not sure if you switch him and Harden, either of those guys improves. I think right now it's Butler/Harden/Klay at the top of the SG ladder, but that's more a statement about how low the SG spot is right now. It's all about the PGs and the SFs that consume possessions like PGs.
Klay plays good defense though, Harden on the other hand has forgotten any semblance of it after being traded to Houston.
Klay did put up 38pts on 16-27 shooting today. But yeah, I don't think he's as good as the media make him out to be. He's an all star. Nothing more.
you know who has almost never made 16 FG in a game and is a terrible defender? the best sg in the nba! really, how outlandish is his claim?
Absolutely. Klay is a more complete player, but Harden is a much better offensive player (ref assisted or not). Much much better. Klay is still more of a shooter than a scorer. He can create a bit, but not the same way Harden can.
