Klay Thompson Comments on Record-Setting Game 6 Performance vs. Thunder

Making history wasn't enough for Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson.

Thompson's 11 made three-pointers in Golden State's Game 6 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference Finals on Saturday set an NBA playoff record, yet the two-time All-Star wasn't satisfied.

"I should have had at least 13 because I missed some wide-open looks early," Thompson said after Golden State's 108-101 win, per ESPN.com's Tim MacMahon.

Thompson led all scorers with 41 points on 14-of-30 shooting, including 11-of-18 from beyond the arc:

Warriors majority owner Joe Lacob felt the need to bow down to the 26-year-old after the game, via ESPN:

Thompson admitted he wasn't aware of the significance of his performance as the game was going on, per MacMahon: "I didn't even know I had 11 threes. I was just trying to be aggressive, whether that was getting to the rim or getting a good shot from beyond the perimeter."

CBS Sports' Matt Moore noted that Thompson didn't even start the game well:

"

Klay Thompson hit one 3 in the first quarter.

One.

He hit ten in the final three.

What in hell.

Given that stat, it's easy to see why the Warriors sharpshooter felt he could've done more despite the fact that he did something no other player has ever accomplished.

Expecting Thompson to repeat his feat in Game 7 on Monday would be unfair, but there's no question he needs to continue shooting the ball well for Golden State to advance to the NBA Finals. His backcourt partner, fellow Splash Brother Stephen Curry, hasn't looked like his MVP self in the series.

Against Oklahoma City, Curry is shooting 41.7 percent from the field and 39.1 percent from three-point range. He was a 50.4 percent shooter during the regular season and knocked down 45.4 percent of his threes.

Knowing Thompson can almost single-handedly alter the course of a game—as he did in Game 6—is a nice luxury for the Warriors.
