He comin to da Lakers for real
Klay Thompson's camp is frustrated that the Golden State Warriors haven't offered a maximum contract in their ongoing extension talks with Friday's deadline nearing, sources told Yahoo Sports.
Thompson is seeking a maximum deal paying upward of $15 million per season, a source said. The Warriors have improved their offer to get in the vicinity but have not offered a full maximum contract, sources said.
If Thompson and the Warriors do not come to terms on an extension by the Halloween deadline, he will be a restricted free agent next summer.
Warriors owner Joe Lacob has yet to become comfortable offering a maximum extension, sources said. A source close to Thompson said any offer shy of a max would be "absurd" considering his improvement and the influx of money to come to NBA teams from the next television contract.
Thompson averaged 18.4 points, 2.8 3-pointers, 3.1 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game last season and also has a reputation as a strong defender. He helped his stock with a strong performance for the gold-medal winning USA Basketball team during the 2014 World Cup in Spain. Thompson is slated to make $3 million this season.

for the max? i hope so
He worth it IMO.
Shiieet. It's not like we gettin Durant anyway gotta use that $$$ on someone young with a live body
Listen spermraider the lakers just spent 78.5 mil on Kobe and Nash, MLE on swGgy and $9 mil 1 yr on Jordan hill kalye at max ain't a bad thing
so because you are overpaying for those players, it makes it ok to overpay for yet another?
Yeah that's about right ain't my money homie
its not about the money out of the pocket, its about the money coming out of your cap room
He's a great player. Not worth the max though.
lux tax ain't comin out of my pocket nigra, I don't think we in the same page

Did Clippatown hack this account?
Hes one of the best if not the best "current" Shooting guards in the league right now so yeah he should deserve max on that, but its sad how weak the SG position is right now.
Great at what??? His best year was 18ppg at 44%. You ing nerds sure have lowered the standards of the league.
Tbh tho. Maxin Klay ain't a bad deal especially once that new CBA kicks in. He gonna be a bargain. Feel me.
He a young buck. He gonna improved. I like da kid. Dude is deadly beyond the arc and we already have a banger and future 20 and 10 presence with Randle.
Look here, pal... he ain't no max player. You got one jackass in here that even had the nerve to call him great. He's a good role player for a contending team... which we aren't!!!
Also... Randle seems to have expanded his game in just a few short months from college to pros. I was pissed we took him but if he can work hard he'd make a damn good wing player... with power... like Barkley.
U a legend but I disagree. He da next Glen rice, them shooters don't grow In trees
Dude was projected to go #1 he's legit we stole that one![]()
Time will tell, but I doubt it. He's been a role player his entire life.
It's looking that way.
He hasn't even played a real game yet
