00:00Clay Thompson being back against his old team. Of course, you would expect very emotional.

00:08It was a really cool experience. I appreciate the fans very much. The captain's hat ended up

00:17being a great touch. So I'm such a passionate boater and saw a lot of familiar faces in the

00:23crowd. It was a warm-hearted feeling. It was really cool to see the fans' gratitude towards

00:34myself. Something I will never take for granted. It was very awesome. There you go. It's very

00:43emotional. Very touching for Clay last night going back. Look, he played well for the first

00:50time this year. So it's always that. When this guy goes home and when Paul George goes to LA,

00:59they boo him. And then this guy goes back and they cheer him. I mean, there wasn't one person

01:03in the entire arena booing him. Because this is like what we talked about last week. When you

01:10bring championships, it's very hard, unless you tell the whole city, you know, I hate being here.

01:17It's very hard for them to boo you when you come back, when you've won them something. As good as

01:23Clay was for the Warriors, you can't. That's an unbooable situation, is what that is. There's

01:28very few of them in sports. But when you win a bunch of titles, it's an unbooable situation.
