I then went to play ball with the Texas Legends

What year was this? You probably know my brother

 

[VARNELL HILL]

He gets his touches tho

How much of him being a lock down defender is being the third option on O and playing next to Dray and KD

He was still a lock down defender when he was the 2nd option before KD showed up

 

[VARNELL HILL]

Klay D is overrated

The guy in your avi disagrees

“No. I’d like to see him on a few more all-defensive teams. Has he made it? … No? That’s some bull—-. So yeah, I guess you could say he’s underrated,” Irving said.

 

[shotsrangout]

Damn got some ballers in here.

I only played for one team my whole life. The streets.

What you know about that blacktop

 

[k3stacks]

Klay D can never be overrated by the job he has done against kyrie in the finals

2010-11 the year of the "expansion draft" lol which is why I bounced around. It was still in the trial seasons of the league. Who's big bro. Shoot me a PM

 

[D StaXX]

bballkid11 definitely has a strap. My guy gets buckets.

In High School I was top 3 for Mr.Basketball in Michigan (avg 29 ppg) and my team lost in the State Championship 2 years in a row first to Joe Crawford from Kentucky and next year to Drew Neitzel from MSU.
I played for a Monster AAU squad and the best in Michigan (which helped me get recongnition) and committed to Northwestern before my senior year.

Tore my Meniscus my Senior year. Went to Northwestern for one year and did not play much. Transferred to Detroit Mercy and played 2 seasons.

I then went to play ball with the Texas Legends for half a season got cut, Reno Bighorns and got cut again and then went to play ball in Canada in the NBLC for a year, tore my meniscus again and that was all she wrote. It took me about a year to get back but the past 2 years I could of gone and played back in Canada or possibly overseas but not worth it anymore. I have a Wife, young son (4 months) and a stable job and coaching gig (college women) here. I still play in a ton of pro-aim leagues though and open runs with the fellas.

Dope as hell man. NT got some talent

 

[gaiiige]

Klay D is overrated

PAUSE

I really like Beal but Klay is a lockdown on-ball defender, that's such a huge asset to have. I guess who I want depends on my team needs.

Playmaking is more important than individual defense

Playmaking is more important than individual defense

Not for GSW fit matters

 

[B Sox]

Kyrie averaged 29 a game on 47/42/90 shooting in the 2017 Finals and 27 a game on 47/41/94 shooting in the 2016 Finals. Klay was locking him up?

NT still thinks Dellavadova 'locked up' Steph

 

[addict4sneakers]

no such thing as locking up the Myrie’s of the world. Klay did force him into some tough shots in game 3 and 4 last year

Good ****, my dude. What position did you play, if you don’t mind me asking? I’m doing my scouting EARLY for the NT NBA Hoops Summit. I gotta figure out how much @buc em sweats because the answer is profusely then he could be a monster in the post since defenders would glide off his shirtless body as he drops jump hooks screaming “EMBIID!” And “BENJAMIN!”. Although, in classic Sixers fashion, he might not get selected word to Ben Simmons and this years all-star game and upcoming ROTY award

Beal could easily do what Klay does on GSW.
Klay on the Wizards.... not so much

 

[antidope]

bballkid11 Appreciate you sharing that story man that's super dope

 

[P C H]

LOL

Right. I'm like what defense on Kyrie they talking about? Kyrie cooks Steph and Klay.

 

[B Sox]

That's fair.

 

[BIG FISH]

Westbrook and Harden also cook Klay lol
This is whybI say play making is more valuable than individual defense (for non bigs).
