Video: An emotional Klay Thompson can't hold his excitement on being back to best, says, "We still got 4 more to go, Dub Nation!" as Golden State qualifies for NBA Finals

The emotional rush of heading to the NBA Finals was not lost on Golden State Warriors superstar Klay Thompson as he expressed himself after their win in Game 5.

The Warriors came up with a huge 120-110 win the back of a crucial performance by Thompson. While the guard has been a core member of the Warriors' dynasty, he was particularly grateful for their accomplishments this season.

Addressing the audience after the win at Chase Center, Klay Thompson had this to say in his post-game interview with Ernie Johnson of TNT:

"I'm just so happy to be back. I'm so thankful for this team. These guys carried us to an incredible start. We coming back in there...I don't want to get emotional but I can't believe we're back. This is crazy.

"I'm going to enjoy this tonight but, wow we still got four more to go Dub nation. I'm going to soak this in tonight though. I can't believe it. I really can't believe it."

Thompson's words rung loud and true for NBA fans across the world. The Warriors guard has been nothing short of an inspiration to players since making his heroic return to the side this season.

Having missed two years due to horrific injuries, his triumphant return has only been sweetened with a trip to the NBA Finals with the Warriors trio.

Although Klay isn't the same player he used to be, he showed sparks of his old self throughout the playoffs. He came up clutch whenever the team needed him as he continues to be an important piece for the Warriors.

Following their win, only four games separating the Golden State Warriors from the NBA title. The Dubs will need every one of their main rotation to players to bring their A game. With Klay Thompson also running at full steam, they look virtually unstoppable.
