Re-Explain One Klay: 2016 Game 6 vs OKC

One year and a day ago was Klay Thompson’s Game 6, a leap forward in the development of modern Klaytheism (as Haley O'Shaughnessy puts it).

In my mind this is Klay’s greatest game, even though 37 and 60 were more special events, but they didn’t come under the ultimate pressure of win or go home.

If the Warriors had lost Game 7 to OKC, then Game 6 would have been just a great game. Instead, it became, without exaggeration, a turning point for the entire league.

It’s amazing how mathematically everything broke for the Warriors as far as acquiring Kevin Durant.
