OAKLAND — Nothing usually bothers the laid-back Klay Thompson. Well, maybe one thing.

He has collected three NBA titles and has set various shooting records through the tailend of his nine-year NBA career. But despite often defending the opposing team’s top scorer with relative success, Thompson has not made an NBA All-Defensive team.

“It’s always been a goal of mine. I pride myself on playing on both sides of the ball,” Thompson said following morning shootaround.
