Klay, who averaged 20 points per game in December, is expected to decline and then rise, and the high-salary contract brings expectations
In the last meeting, the Warriors played against the Celtics, who set a league-best record of 20-5. A year ago, they had beaten the Bostonians, and now the situation is completely different. The Celtics are still the same, while the Golden State Warriors have dropped to the bottom five. So, before the start of this game, many people were not optimistic about them. But it was in this situation that the Warriors outcame their archrivals and won in overtime.
Curry is the deserved No. 1 spot, while Klay, with 24 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists, +7, is also an excellent scorer. Indeed, Clay has already shown his quality in eight appearances in December.
In December, his average score reached 443%,40.2%,95.7%。While Klay has been criticized for the next month, most Golden State fans have lost faith in their four-time championship. But Klay is Klay after all, and even after a poor performance in November, he has returned to his position in that time, shooting 376%。Considering the performances of previous seasons, Klay improved his three-point range to over 40% at the end of this season, which is not a big deal.
After several seasons of slump and brilliance, Clay is also used to slapping those who doubt him in his own way. But if Klay is to get a big contract, he'll have to show his quality in the playoffs and get more opportunities for the team if he rebounds early in the season. Last season, Klay was just too bad, averaging just 16 in 13 games8 shots, but he only had 185 points, which makes his scoring efficiency much less. He'll have to show his quality again in the playoffs to impress the manager.
Let's all wish Clay a triumphant return next summer.
