After an already very good Game 1 on an individual level, Klay Thompson took care of everything in Game 2. The big half of the Splash Brothers sticks 30 points to the Lakers, 11/18 in shooting… including 8/11 from Alcatraz ! Intractable, he allowed the Warriors to drive the point home at key moments of the meeting.
Klay Thompson for three… it’s good ! This is a phrase that has been said eight times tonight. What a KT11 masterclass! 30 points, 3 rebounds at 8/11 from the parking lot. Sixth personal Playoffs game with at least 8 planted shots from afar, NBA record. His meeting started quietly, however, with five points in the first quarter. The Lakers are then in front of the score, but the formula is not the same as in the first round. We quickly feel Los Angeles at the breaker, whether offensively or defensively. The first to notice it and get into the bacon of La La Land is this good Klay. Four 3-point shots planted in the second dozen minutes, almost exclusively in the same place, a little eccentric to the left of the circle.
What give an indication of the space to be defended to prevent him from carrying out his work? Guess not, because the Lakers will watch it. With each shot, Chase Center volume increases a bit. His final exit, at the end of the third quarter, will be carried out under the complete ovation of the room. A well-deserved thank you after an exceptional match.
You have to face the facts: it’s high-flying Klay ☺️

Klay’s confidence capital is therefore in good shape, a more than important element for him and the Dubs while the trip to Los Angeles on the night of Saturday to Sunday promises to be crucial for the rest of the series. Thanks to his performance, the whole game of the Warriors was able to develop wonderfully : Stephen Curry took less shot, focused on managing the game and distributing caviars. This helped to feed JaMychal Green and Donte DiVincenzo, both authors of some welcome bomblets behind the arc.

This culture ofgame before i” so dear to FC Nantes in the 90s was exported to basketball with the Warriors. The game requires that Klay Thompson take the shots without stopping: the whole team gets in tune to put him in a chair. Stark contrast to the Lakers’ near-desperate individual attempts tonight. Well done Klay, we want more now!
