The Warriors Are Unbeatable Because Of A Toaster
In 2014, a Warriors fan set his sights on getting all of the Golden State Warriors players to sign his Warriors edition fan toaster (Seriously? Was the Dubs’ marketing team really like: “Yeah, we definitely need to create a fan toaster, that will sell like hot cakes.” (pun intended)).

Then, on March 14, 2017, Klay Thompson signed the toaster. His reaction to this strange request is pricless. The look on his face… hilarious

The fan explained the interaction with Klay:
He was definitely interested in it lol. I asked him if he’s ever signed a toaster before and he said nah. He noticed Draymond’s signature and I pointed out David Lee’s on there.
“Whoa DLee? That’s a throwback.”
That alone is a funny, and weird story. But there is more behind it. Ever since Klay Thompson signed the toaster, the Warriors are unbeaten, with an incredible record of 28-0.
But as always, where there is light, there must be shadow; in this case for Klay Thompson’s shooting numbers ever since. The toaster may have stolen Klay’s talent.
If they finish off the season 31-0, winning a second ring in three years, Klay Thompson could not care less.
