Thompson stated, “Gosh! It’s probably YouTube’s Game 6 Klay.” “Because of the high-pressure situations that I was in. I was able to shoot the ball very well. If you are able to do it with your back against the wall, it is possible to do it at any moment. It’s about maintaining a strong mental attitude.

It’s not about how hard you work, but about your mindset. There are no teaching points. He has so much faith that he can leave at any time.
