If Klay went out there and got hurt, 100% of you would be talking about how dumb they are for leaving him out there

if he got hurt in the middle of the 3rd when he was still playing and they were up 20+
wouldn't they have asked the same question?

How many times had someone been on track for a career night, a coach left them in, and they got hurt?

Terrible logic bro
There's absolutely no reason to play him up 30
You play to win the game...

What are you even asking here?
Say the answer is yes....does that mean because they already left him in during a blowout, they should continue to leave him in further ?
That's like saying "i ****** her raw by mistake yesterday, might as well go and do it again today".

Damn Klay dropped 60. I turned this off after the 1st quarter.

That was the highest amount of points ever for someone who played less than 30 minutes.

People lose so much sight that on the fact that this is entertainment
What do you think is better for the league? Or will draw more eyeballs?
A player scoring 80+ (in the way that Klay does it)
Or him getting a hot night and it getting the talk in basketball circles for 3 days?
80+ is showing up on "good morning America"

How many times has an NBA star broken his leg in a summer exhibition game?
Zero until it actually happens.
They have 6 games in 9 days coming up. He's clearly out of his shooting slump...it serves no purpose to leave him out there.

what i am saying is, gsw took him out at the end of the 3rd. you said if he played more and got hurt everyone would be blaming the gsw coaches.
but the game was well out of hand long before the 3rd quarter ended.
so by your logic, shouldn't they have taken klay out of the game when it was officially out of hand?
if, if was a fifth we'd all be drunk.

Bruh got 60 on 33 FGA and 11 FTA in 3 quarters.
Mean to tell me if he had 46 FGA and 20 FTA he couldn't get 81? 13 more shots and 9 more FTs to get 21 more pts?
Psh.

For you. It's an actual job for them. They have to preserve their ability to "entertain" you.

I hate to say it but what you said is very stupid fam.
The negatives far outweigh the positive in this situation.
I would even consider your argument valid if this was a player like Devin Booker on a team that you know has no postseason hopes...
But on a team where the goal is to win chips it makes no sense to leave him in.
Just be happy he gave them what he did

I'm not saying what they "should" have done period. So if they did take him out, then I certainly would have understood it. It's the most logical thing to do.

i get the "sit him down" logic.
i am just saying, that as a fan, it would've been nice to see him play 5 or 6 more mins to see what he could do. he was 10 points away from basketball "rare air".

i just don't really believe in that logic. i feel that if a player is gonna get hurt, he's gonna get hurt. doesn't really matter if you take him out early today to save him for tomorrow etc
sh** happens
nothing saying that he can't get hurt in the next game, or the next. *no jinx*

I agree. of course it would have be fun as a fan. I just hate how people act like the players are "obligated" to perform whenever they want them to.
