All that running and gunning early season but come playoff time gonna lose 4-1 to the Spurs as always. Still impressive though,can't hate on that.
I wouldn't bet money on them winning the west, but these days most teams, including the Spurs, are playing some sort of space and pace offense.
 
Team ain't coached by Mark Jackson anymore.

I don't even like the Spurs and I know they still gonna bust the West ass come playoff time. They are a different animal come April when it all starts to count. I sure as hell don't want to see their boring ass fundamental basketball in the finals but from what I've seen the last 2 years of them destroying Golden State I can't see it going any other way. You honestly think their gonna be running and gunning come playoff time let alone other teams allow that? Please, these guys are gonna get strapped up come late April lol.

dubs score really well with their half court sets. We don't play iso ball. That said, I do worry about the Spurs or Grizzlies matching up...
 
Holy fuck.

In that 3rd quarter, he would've scored even with closed eyes, one hand, all the Kings around him, 10 meters from the basket, facing the opposite direction, while drinking a Martini with the other hand. My God, he was unstoppable 0__0
 
Back in the day when I used to watch basketball, I remember seeing Steve Smith score 20 points in a quarter and I thought it was amazing (Atlanta vs Seattle IIRC). There must have been a real party atmosphere at that stadium watching someone score almost double that.
 
Melo actually tied Gervin's record a few years back.

Props to Klay, this is nuts and will probably stand for a looooong time.
 
Why is everyone trying to tear down this accomplishment with all these "bu-bu-bu-buts"?

I have never seen anything like what I saw tonight in that quarter from one player.

KLAY was in fucking god mode.
 
Wow so that's a once in a lifetime thing. The record was 40 years old and he beat it by 4 points. So doubt we'll see that one broken for quite some time.
 
It's funny because he was still getting open shots after scoring 20 in like 3 minutes. Might want to switch up the defense Ty.
 
Damn that's nuts, he scored all the points for his team in the entire game then?

Anywho Klay should be in the All-Stars roster, him and Curry are the Splash Bros after all.


That's the thing, the game has moved on from 1962. To answer your question, he didn't, that team put up 169 on that night and Wilt took 63 attempts to get there. The game didn't even go to OT.
 
I could have gone to this game, my uncle offered me his season tickets. But I didnt, because I don't care about basketball. How big a deal is this, can I sell the tickets on eBay?
 
"The most amazing thing about scoring 37 points in the quarter is that no one put Klay Thompson on his ass."
 
damn that's just insane.....

My Blazers are going through a rough time but god damn shit like this really pumps me up. Love Basketball

ps: I think GS has a good chance to win the west as anybody who is going to make the playoffs in the west. They are very strong and capable. Wouldn't mind a series with them and Blazers (once everyone get better that is)..would be an insane game...3s 3s everywhere
 
It's crazy, before this happened they blew an 18 point lead over the kings and were tied before Klay decided to spit hot fire in the third. They are a great team but really frustrate the hell out of me sometimes with careless turnovers
 
Man that was fun as fuck to watch, wish I saw this shit live.

Dude went into zone, I could see the lightning coming from his eyes.
 
They should have kept him in the game to see how many more points he would have scored the rest of the game. That was impressive shooting.
 
holy fucking SHIT.

reminds me of when I used to give my create a player all 99 stats in nba live and just wet threes the entire game

except this is real life

unreal
 
Crazy. I was disgusted that my Knicks won so I turned off the basketball for the night.

The Warriors play the best d in the league though? And it's 2015, everyone's running and gunning.
 
So happy that I'm playing him this week in fantasy..................

😞😞😞😞😰😭😭😭😭

The Spurs are not as healthy or as good as they have been the last two years their play on the court shows it and the spurs have never won back to back championships. On top of all of that Golden State has never had their full squad going into the playoffs the last two or three years either Bogut or David lee was hurt and unable to play in the playoffs. They just have to stay healthy and they will be fine.

Bogut is never healthy.

They also average the most assists in the league per game, score the third most points in the paint per game and shoot the best percentage in the league per game.

Not saying they can't be beat, but I'm not sure why their offense can't work in the playoffs. It's varied and incredibly efficient.
