On January 9, Beijing time, the Warriors have officially announced that Thompson will return on January 10, and he will return to the field after 941 days in the "Riding Battle". Now that Thompson talks about his comeback, he says he knows who he is and how great he is, and he doesn't need to get a 50 points in a section to prove it.
As the top sharpshooter in NBA history, even if Thompson has a certain gap with Curry, he is still a historical shooting textbook. Thompson is a giant member of the Warriors who have reached the Finals for five consecutive years and won the championship three times during the period, and his status and value to the Warriors are self-evident.
Although he has missed two seasons due to consecutive injuries and has also missed the first half of the season, everyone is waiting for Thompson to return, and he has left fans waiting too long.
In an interview, Thompson talked about his comeback, and he also expressed his own opinion, "Of course, I know who I am, I know how good I am. I also know what I've achieved before. How many unfinished things do I need to do to regain respect? Do I need to score 50 points in a single quarter? What the hell is this? Enough is really enough, and I will use these disrespectful remarks as a motivation for me to move forward. ”
Thompson once had the first single quarter performance in the history of 37 points in a single quarter, and three years ago today, in the Warriors' 122-95 home victory over the Knicks, Thompson once dribbled only 4 times in the game, but gave 18 of 29 shots to shoot 43 points. As for the January 2016 game against the Pacers, he once dribbled just 11 times and shot 60 points, making him the top no-ball player in history.
