He scored 11 of his 32 points on Sunday in the fourth quarter, and his 30-foot 3 and one-leg floater over the last 50 seconds of the first half marked a momentum surge that will be forgotten with the way this game ended. The Warriors have become pretty top-heavy, and for that to work as a championship formula, those top guys have to be awesome. They have the experience. The pedigree. When his sidekick is also in vintage form, which, again, he absolutely has been for an extended period now, that's when it feels like the dynasty is still alive. And somehow, it seems the same chip on their shoulder in moments of the highest competition. He finished with 32 points on Sunday, backing up the 42 he posted in a win over Houston on Friday, and is now averaging better than 26 points per game since Jan. But the leeway has been earned. If you've settled into the "Thompson isn't what he used to be" narrative, you'll be surprised to learn that he has been scorching hot for almost two months now.

Klay Thompson hit a wild 3-point shot in Golden State Warriors' win over Minnesota Timberwolves and explains how he's stepped up as a leader.

The Warriors lost nine of 11 games as they made their push to the playoffs, but eventually "We had an ugly stretch ... Despite stepping out of his comfort zone, Thompson said there is some familiarity with the situation. Thompson finished the night with a team-high 32 points and 42 against the Houston Rockets on Friday as he led the Warriors to back-to-back wins. All-Star Andrew Wiggins has also been out while tending to a family matter.

Klay Thompson compares himself to an all-time NBA great, and his reasoning is justified.

Miller's trash-talking abilities were backed up with his cold-blooded shooting on the biggest stages and when it mattered most. It's needed for the Warriors, who feed off Thompson's energy and offensive eruptions. And I mean, Reggie got in so many scraps, he got under so many people’s skin so I really love those two guys at the two-guard spot. The greatest to ever play this game were the biggest competitors. “Being the shooting guard I am, I idolized Kobe Bryant.

He also had four assists on Sunday, including a beautiful pump fake and drive before finding an open Donte DiVincenzo for the go ahead three in the closing minutes. But while the Warriors need Thompson’s scoring right now, he still wants to impact games in a multitude of ways.
