I have no doubt that Klay would hit open looks at an absurd rate but the question is if he is getting the same amount of shot attempts in a system that isn't known for set plays, curls screens, split actions.
No you are absolutely correct in that the Warriors motion offense will be a big difference.
But Kidd ran pet plays for THJ all the time. He runs motion plays for Kyrie. I don't see why he wouldn't implement some pet plays for Klay, especially given his gravity as a shooter will pull defenses and create open looks for guys like PJ and Lively.
A PnR of Luka+Klay will also be deadly. It's similar to the dribble hand offs Curry+Thompson have run for the last decade.
