Klay played his heart out. He was about to force a game 7 had not because of the injury. Any team would want to have a Klay on their team. Skilled, heart and determination. Speedy recovery Klay. A true warrior.

Game 6 Klay still showed up until that injury. They all fought hard and played their hearts out, true Warriors though 😭
Prayers for Klay’s fast recovery 🙏🏽❤️

Klay a real one. Shout out to him and KD. Kawhi played hurt during the playoffs as well. All great players

1, 267 miles run 🏃🏿 that’s insane amount of physical and mental power how I completely underestimated his physical prowess Godspeed on his recovery. And I hope the warriors give him that Max Contract his earned it.

Our boys took my respect for them to the next level- I am so proud of their hearts. Rest up and get well boys.🙏🏽💙💛💙💛

The problem for Steph and the Warriors with Klay's injury is floor spacing. Steph last night hit one basket after Klay's injury. It's not because he's not a superstar. The defense can now focus on him. He has no offensive player to play off of. If Klay was out there and Steph wasn't, Klay would be a lot less effective, because the defense would be doubling him. They need each other to be at their best. The Warriors won't be very good without him. AND he's a stud defender.

If you’re happy about these great players getting injured then you’re seriously demented as a person. Both those guys made the rest of the NBA better.

Killer Klay Thompson...speedy recovery! Klay is such a Dawg!!!! Love and respect his game!!

[miguellafortune]

Looney, KD, Klay have my utmost respect..I hated them so much 😂 but seeing them play and try to fight through injuries..nothing but respect, true soldiers✊️

[nicchawla]

Respect for Klay, it was a great series.

[alonzolobaton]

Warriors will be Warriors...stay strong...

[TheMrface]

I saw a quote said coach give me a couple of mins and I'll be ready. Klay is a real one

[tomismop]

I thought I hated the Warriors but all these injuries just made me sad to see them go down like this

[KR]

Klay has always been one of my favorite players and it was tough cheering against him, even tougher watching him get injured. The dude was straight torching us the entire series. He is going to come back stronger no doubt. Pay the man and let him retire as a Warrior. The league is too stupid to put some respek on his name.

[Rivs]

The warriors will do right by Klay and give him that max deal he earned. Splash brothers will be back come 2021.

[TDB]

2 warriors, worst 2 injuries. I defo think it will affect their FA

[dannyllerenatv]

I think Klay will be fine, people come back just fine from ACL tears nowadays since the surgery in the last few years has advanced so much and gotten so good, Durant's injury definitely worries me however because we haven't seen that from an achilles rupture besides Dominique Wilkins. Wishing a speedy recovery, Klay and Durant live up to the Warrior name

[alxfonso]

Hate that KD and Klay are injured. But i am very eager to see a Boogie, Steph Draymond lineup. Now we can see how good of a coach Kerr is

[cesaravila]

Respect to the loyal and humble raptor fans, but they didn't have a chance without all these injuries.

[azma]

Hopefully they don’t run Steph into the ground next season . Lessen his mins should take back to back offs so they could compete seriously in 2021
