“I’m a huge Kobe [Bryant] fan. He was my biggest inspiration. I’m just going to play my hardest to honor him and Gigi cause without his play and me viewing his tenacity on the court, I would not be the athlete I am today.” Klay Thompson on playing in LA

    You know what played a large role in Kobe being the player he was? Failure. Those back to back airballs against Utah in ’97. Losing to the Spurs in ’03. The ’08 finals. These failures motivated him to keep working and be the very best he could be.

    Now’s the time for a bit of failure Klay. Do it for Kobe.

    Klay is a real one. I hope if he ever leaves Golden State he finishes his career a Laker. But if he wants to not make another 3 the rest of the series, that would be great

    Respect for Kobe and being Lakers fans growing up is the only reasons I think Klay and Tatum are alright. Besides that, I wish them no success with the teams they play for.

    The best way to honor Kobe is to go 8/24 from the field and 2/8 from three. I trust in you Klay.

    Fuck this shit. Stop using Kobe’s name in vein. Kobe was a LAKER and you don’t honor him by beating the Lakers. Just say something else

    So now… Klay emerges as the true *Kobe Disciple* on some John Snow shit?

    Damn, Kobe is bleeping us by inspiring so many studs that play for other teams lol

    Yeah. The Lakers are going to win anyway. Be it 6 or 7.

    Klay is a good guy. The Warriors are a high character team (with a notable exception). No sports hate here.
