Warriors’ Klay Thompson out vs Boston Celtics

9 per game entering Friday.

The Warriors already are without forward Harrison Barnes, who is sidelined with an ankle injury.

Well now the Warriors will be without one half of their backcourt, as Thompson will be out against the Celtics on Friday night. But the likes of Bradley and Crowder must disrupt Curry and Klay Thompson (if he plays) behind the arc for the home team to stay in this game. That is, if you want to take our word for it. “It’s the shooting overall, and especially the shooting off of transition”. That’s the biggest thing against a team like this. Boston has allowed an average of seven 3-pointers per game, the fourth-lowest total in the National Basketball Association, and opponents are connecting on just 33.3 of their 3-point attempts against the C’s.

Scal worked on the Warriors’ coaching staff under Mark Jackson in 2013, but things did not end well.

Golden State’s Draymond Green, a former second-round pick, isn’t buying into that narrative.

The Warriors have won four straight against the Celtics, sweeping the last two season series.

The Warriors have made every court in the league part of their victory tour since rallying past the Cavaliers in last year’s NBA Finals.

Maybe it’s Kerr’s rotation usage (dutifully continued by interim coach Luke Walton in Kerr’s extended absence), or maybe it’s the sensory deprivation chambers in downtown San Francisco that the Warriors so love to frequent. I believe the best shot at this team losing will come on Christmas day when they play King James and the Cavaliers. I’m 100 percent happy for these guys. Going in I felt great.

In an interview with the ESPN (via Sporting News), Thompson said, “It’s not feeling great, but it’s not feeling bad, it’s like somewhere in between”. Usually you’re supposed to completely support your head coach whatever he says, whether he is insane or otherwise. “To me, he’s just a victor; he impacts winning”. “I thought it was a championship-caliber team and I got ostracized for feeling that way”.

“It was one of those nights where I got a lot of great looks”.
