Mychal Thompson: LeBron James ‘acts too entitled’
The Golden State Warriors camp continues to direct a string of pointed comments at LeBron James, with former NBA player Mychal Thompson joining the fray.
Thompson, father of Klay, called out James for being overly sensitive to trash talk and called him “entitled,” saying that he never would have survived in the NBA of the 1980s.
Klay not the only Thompson going in on LeBron. Mychal on radio on complaining: "Are we now this PC that we can't trash talk on the court?"

Mychal Thompson isn’t speaking on behalf of his son or the Warriors at large, but you can bet that most of them would agree with his comments. They feel that the Draymond Green suspension was extremely unjust, and Klay Thompson himself accused James of being too sensitive. Don’t be surprised if Game 5 is played with a bit of an edge to it.
