• Klay Thompson postgame Game 2 on being down 0-2 for the first time: “Unfamiliar territory but we’ve been down 3-1.”
• On what the Kings are doing: “They’re switching a lot of screens and making us play along the perimeter… didn’t get to the rim… being back home will help us… being aggressive… not settling… we had two chances to win these games so we’re not discouraged.”
• On the physicality: “Better that than all the flopping. We don’t mind when it’s a physical game.”
• On the bad habits from the regular season: “Bounce back in a great way and I know we will.”
• On pace: “makes for a fun matchup… we’ll be better… at home. I just know we will.”
• On feeling any pressure: “No… see an opportunity for us to go home and protect our home court… we’ve been through it all… lost a 73-win season so we know how to deal with outside pressure… comes with being an NBA player.”
• On playing the whole fourth quarter, expecting more from the young guys: “Jordan’s playing with half a foot right now so I’m just proud of his resilience… first to four… we all have off nights… Finals, in the Olympics… bounce back… I know we’re gonna right the ship.”
• On what needs to change: “Make more shots, attack the rim and rebound. Those three things are vital to success going forward.”
• On Draymond-Sabonis incident: “what are you gonna do… fully grabs your foot and yanks on you… that’s not cool, man… can’t just grab somebody’s foot, that’s not cool. I don’t do that. That’s crazy.”
