Klay Thompson takes shot at Grizzlies' Jaren Jackson Jr. for early ... (Warriors Wire)

After winning the 2022 NBA championship, Klay Thompson didn't forget to pull out the receipt on one particular tweet.

I had to watch that. Following the Grizzlies’ win over the Warriors, Memphis big man Jaren Jackson Jr. took to Twitter. The 22-year-old tweeted “Strength in Numbers,” mocking Golden State’s former playoff moniker. I can’t wait to retweet that thing.

Klay Thompson called out Jaren Jackson Jr. and it validated these ... (The Commercial Appeal)

By insulting Jaren Jackson Jr. and the Grizzlies after winning the NBA Finals, Golden State's Klay Thompson gave Memphis its greatest compliment yet.

The guess here is Golden State just experienced its last hurrah of the Steph Curry era, and a particularly glorious one at that. We’ve now had Brooks call out Andre Iguodala multiple times for how he handled his trade from Golden State to Memphis three years ago. This was Memphis living "rent free" in the minds of one of Golden State's stars, as social media might say. It's all the proof you need to know what Dillon Brooks declared after Golden State eliminated the Grizzlies is true. This was no doubt an insult Thompson earned the right to hand out given the circumstances. Within that accomplishment, though, is what Brooks said: They aren’t getting younger.

As of now I will not be doing any. Why should I be banned because their security is incompetent? Banned bc I walked pass 5 layers of security guards (who willingly let me through security without asking for ID) & shot around on the court for 10 minutes.

“Because I knew this was possible but to be here in real time, man, I don’t want to leave. And playing just that Warriors brand of basketball that made us so successful, and then knowing I was going to be inserted in that, I knew we had a chance to do something special, and here we are.” I said championship or bust, because I saw how we came out of the gate, 18-2. I want to enjoy every second of this. “I saw it in the beginning of season,” he said. “I was feeling just so high on life that I did not want to leave the stage, and I just know how hard this is, and to be here for a fourth time, like so grateful for my teammates.”

Klay Thompson just crowned himself the new petty king, y'all. Sheesh.

Jaren Jackson Jr. probably woke up that morning saying “now why am I involved in this?” He has his tweet to thank for it. The Warriors took that to heart on Thursday after beating the Celtics in Game 6. I love it. Steph Curry — in the middle of the game — pointed to his ring finger and crowned himself a champion. I had to watch that. I can’t wait to retweet that thing.

Long, winding road brings Klay Thompson back to dancing on NBA ... (ProBasketballTalk)

It was a long road of recovery from two major injuries for Klay Thompson to return to the NBA Finals stage and he made sure to enjoy this title.

“The anguish that Klay has felt over the last three years, I don’t know that — people can guess as to what it is like, but we saw it up close,” Kerr said. On offense, Thompson averaged 17 points a game in the Finals and hit some big 3s, but shot 35.6% overall and just did not have his touch all the way back. Then to go through this season with the ups and downs, and even these playoffs, I’m just at a loss for words at times. “2019, it was easier to accept because I had never been hurt before and that five-year run took a lot out of us,” Thompson said while drenched in champagne from a locker room title celebration. “Just to stay with it, just calf raise after calf raise, after underwater treadmill, so many days, not even touching a ball. BOSTON — Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry were dancing on the temporary stage where just 15 minutes before NBA Deputy Commissioner Mark Tatum handed them the Larry O’Brien Trophy as NBA champions.

“There was this one player on the Grizzlies who tweeted ‘Strength in numbers’ after they beat us in the regular season, and it pissed me off so much. “Strength in numbers,” Jackson tweeted after the Grizzlies beat the Warriors 123-95 on March 28, a reference to the Golden State motto. “Strength in numbers is alive and well,” Thompson told reporters at his post-title game press conference.

The Memphis Grizzlies are living rent-free in Klay Thompson's head (Beale Street Bears)

Klay Thompson inexplicably let the cat out of the bag that Jaren Jackson Jr. and the Memphis Grizzlies were living rent-free in his head this season.

“There was this one player on the Grizzlies who tweeted ‘strength in numbers’ after they beat us in the regular season,” Thompson said. “Like, this freakin’ clown,” Thompson said before trying in a futile attempt to reel himself in. You can’t have it both ways. The Grizzlies play with swagger. Now, Thompson is essentially mad that he was disrespected by someone he views as beneath him. Hold that,” Thompson said proudly.

Of course this all started when Jackson Jr. trolled the Warriors with his “strength in numbers” tweet, referencing the Dubs’ famous slogan from their earlier championship years after a blowout regular-season win. Draymond Green went on a relentless Twitter rant, making sure he addressed his many haters. Steph Curry epically trolled Celtics fans and called out Brian Windhorst’s “checkbook win” comment.

Seen all the work he put in, and all the dedication and all the hard work he had, dealing with all the injuries and all the ups and downs he had … he came back better than ever, on a mission,” Kevon Looney said after the victory.
