Dion Waiters is rockin' in his B-boy stance, and Klay Thompson can't do anything about it. It takes a special kind of confidence for a 21-year-old on a 24-win team to say he believes he can be the best shooting guard in the NBA, that he feels he's "next up as far as shooting guards," behind "Kobe [Bryant] and [Dwyane] Wade and those guys." It's precisely that sort of self-possession that leads you to dramatically clap your hands and call for LeBron James to come off the rock and let you cook, to look off a wide-open Kevin Love beyond the arc, and to hang onto the ball on the break instead of hitting a streaking Kevin Durant — earning some friendly (maybe?) eff-bombs in the process — all because you think you're better equipped than two MVPs and a perennial All-Star to make magic happen.
