Editor's note: The video above is Thompson's reaction to being named to the All-NBA Third Team during the Warriors' playoff series versus the Rockets.
Earlier this month, Klay Thompson confidently asserted that he was the NBA's best shooting guard.
James Harden, Thompson's top competition for the honor, doesn't seem too fond of Thompson's chatter.

“Just let them talk and do whatever they’re going to do," Harden said, according to Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle.
"Whatever gets them excited and whatever gives them that confidence to want to talk, just go ahead and do it. But we really know what’s going on.”
Harden currently leads all NBA shooting guards in scoring at 28.4 points per game, but his Houston Rockets (16-17) have struggled after making it to the Western Conference Finals last season.
Thompson's Golden State Warriors (29-2), on the other hand, have been nearly unbeatable. Thompson has been one of their top contributors on both ends of the floor, but is currently sixth in scoring at his position (19.6 PPG).
The Rockets and Warriors will meet Thursday, Dec. 31 at the Toyota Center in Houston.
