Draymond Green has addressed the elephant in the room after his former teammate Klay Thompson signed with the Heat, and some fans may not like what he has to say.Thompson has been lauded as the man to solve Miamis shooting problems, but Green is trying to bring everyone back down to earth.I dont like how everybody is trying to act like Its Klay Thompson, Green said on his podcast The Draymond Green Show. The reason I dont like it is because I feel like everybody is trying to set Klay up for failure.He added,Im going to say it here right now. Lets stop acting like its 2017 Klay going to Miami.Draymond explained that he wished everyone saw the move for what it was and instead likened it to when Ray Allen joined the Heat in 2012.Thats the role Id expect of Klay, Green said. Dont try to set my brother up. Like youre about to get the 2017 Klay, so the moment you dont, yall can bash him.Green isnt wrong. Thompson is a far cry from his prime.He played in 69 games for the Mavericks last season, but only started in eight of those.He also shot a career low of 38.3 percent from the three-point line and shot 39.3 percent from the field.Hes going into year 16 of his career; we obviously know the injuries hes faced, Green said. Yes he is going to provide shooting, because he shoots the lights out of the ball, and when hes 60, hell be able to shoot the lights out of the ball.Out of context, Greens comments may seem harsh, but the four-time NBA champ seemingly just wants to ensure realistic expectations are being set for one of the greatest shooters of all time.READ MORE: Klay Thompson Likens Giannis Impact to Steph Currys After Joining Heat
