Twitter reacts to Klay Thompson dropping 40 on the Pacers in the first half
By Jack Crosby
Klay Thompson dropped an absurd amount of points on the Pacers Monday night and the internet rightfully exploded
Well, ladies and gentlemen, the Golden State Warriors are doing yet another insane thing. This time, it’s Klay Thompson taking his turn doing the damage.
We know that when it comes to getting hot in a particular game, no one really does that like Thompson, and he took things to a whole other level on Monday. The Warriors are at home taking on the Indiana Pacers, and Golden State went into the half with an 80-50 lead. Now here’s the thing, folks: Of those 80 points the Warriors scored … Klay Thompson had 40 of them!
FOURTY!
FOUR-ZERO!
Yep, it was yet another astounding performance by one of the best shooters in the game today, and of course, Twitter was buzzing like never before this season as they were marveling in the accomplishment.

It's just halftime.
I mean, what more can you really say when it comes to a performance like this one from Klay Thompson? The flame emoji should be used out of style after what’s taken place this evening.
