Floor angle shows how Warriors’ Steve Kerr felt about wild Klay Thompson shot

Warriors head coach Steve Kerr will pretty much never throw his players under the bus.

“I trust Klay,” he said Tuesday following a 3-for-11 shooting performance from Klay Thompson in a 104-101 loss to the Lakers on Monday.

But a floor angle of the second of two questionable threes late in Game 4 from Thompson tells a slightly different story.

Thompson — who finished with just nine points in a dire defeat that now leaves the Dubs in a 3-1 series hole — missed two questionable late threes that helped turn a 99-98 Golden State lead into a 102-99 deficit the Dubs would never recover from.
