On July 3, Beijing time, Warriors star Curry updated his social media news. He posted 30 group photos in a row, and then added a text to the last picture to express his gratitude for his decision to leave the Warriors and switch to alone. Klay Thompson of bid a fond farewell.
"I will miss you terribly - Klay Thompson."
"Although we did not complete this journey together, everything we did is unique, and I can't imagine having a better life than you and Green." A better experience together. We changed the entire Bay Area, changed the entire game, and Killer Klay was at the center of it all, thank you for everything brother, go enjoy playing basketball and do whatever you want to do.”
"Splash Brothers for Life."
Clay was selected by the Warriors with the 11th pick in the 2011 draft, and then officially started his career. Since then, he has officially joined forces with Curry. The two worked together in the Warriors for 13 years. They changed the direction and offensive pattern of the league through sharp three-point shooting, formed the feared Splash Brothers, and continuously broke multiple three-point records. During the 13 years when the two teamed up, the two helped the Warriors create the best record in history of 73 wins and 9 losses in a single season, and reached the Finals 6 times, winning the championship 4 times. It can be said that the Splash brothers supported each other, achieved each other's achievements, and reached the peak of life together.
The Splash Brothers accompanied the Warriors in establishing their dynasty, fell into the trough together, and then rose to the top again through phoenix nirvana. They will all be destined to become legends in the history of the Warriors. Now that Clay has decided to leave Golden State and go to Dallas, no matter what the considerations are, this means that a generation of dynasties will collapse, and the combination of Splash Brothers and Dream Chaser Green may no longer exist. What is certain is that although they are now rivals, the friendship between the Splash brothers is still deep. In order to prevent Curry from being in a dilemma, before Clay left the Warriors, he asked Curry not to put pressure on the Warriors management and use Curry's influence to make the management compromise and give Clay a commitment to stay with the team.
Although the Warriors have publicly thanked Clay for his contribution to the team over the years and promised to retire Clay's No. 11 jersey. But the next time the Splash Brothers meet in the arena, they will meet as rivals, which is still difficult for many fans to accept. The former Splash Brothers have become historical memories.
