Klay bothered by criticism of Warriors? ‘I don't really read people's opinions'

The Warriors went 7-10 over their final 17 regular season games.

They dropped the finale in Utah by 40.

Following the loss in Indiana, Steve Kerr said the Warriors didn't care.

Was Klay Thompson bothered by the "The Warriors are lazy" narrative?

"No, because I don't listen to them to be be honest," Klay told reporters after practice on Sunday. "It didn't bother me at all. I didn't even know that until you told me.

"I do read the paper, but I read the box score mainly. I don't really read people's opinions. I know what to think myself."

Since it's clear that Klay isn't reading this, finally I have the opportunity to talk about how the four-time All-Star isn't good at basketball.

In fact, his jump shot is ugly.

Kidding.

Klay was awesome in Game 1 -- scoring a game-high 27 points on just 13 shots.

"Klay's not gonna go 11-for-13 again, but he might go 12-for-13," Steve Kerr joked on Sunday. "He's smarter than he's even been. He's seen everything. I think he's comfortable playing with KD and Steph...

"He's right in his prime physically, mentally. He's at his best."
