On May 28, Beijing time, according to The Athletic, Warriors coach Steve Cole recently praised Aitu Clay Thompson in an interview as the most balanced defender at both ends of attack and defense so far in this season's playoffs.
"I think Clay (Thompson) has proved this in the playoffs," Cole said, "Maybe some people don't think so, but in this year's playoffs, he is the best defender in the league in terms of comprehensive performance at both ends of attack and defense. You can't say that there are others who are more balanced than him, because he is responsible for marking the other party's leading star on the defensive end, and he also played a high standard on the offensive end."
With the accumulation of experience, now Clay has become one of the best two-way guards in the league. Cole laughed in the interview. Although Clay may not be responsible for defending the Raptors' star Coway Leonard in the upcoming finals, if he really arranges like this, we shouldn't be surprised.
