Klay Thompson Talks About the Epic Game 6 Performance He Had Thanks to One Teammate

Even though the Golden State Warriors have won four NBA titles in the past decade, they had to overcome a number of formidable opponents to do so.

The Warriors won the first of these championships in 2015 and appeared ready to repeat in 2016, but they were stopped in their tracks by a red-hоt Oklahoma City Thunder squad.

With Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook at the helm, the Thunder were a well-rounded squad that could compete with the Warriors.

When these two teams met in the Western Conference Finals, Oklahoma City took a 3-1 series lead and came within one game of upsetting Golden State.

The Warriors won Game 5 to avoid elimination, but they appeared to be finished off in Game 6.

Naveen Ganglani of Rappler spoke with Klay Thompson, who recounted how a speech from Draymond Green sparked his spectacular night and ultimately saved the season for Golden State.According to Thompson, Green remarked that no one thought the Warriors would win 73 games during the regular season or come back from a 3-1 series deficit.

The sharpshooter goes on to explain that the boost in self-assurance allowed him to play at his very best, and he did so by scoring 41 points on 14-of-31 shooting from the field and 11-of-14 from beyond the arc.

Thompson and Warriors fans will never forget this game, as it featured one of the finest shooting exhibitions in NBA postseason history.
