KD carried them, he bailed them out, he stopped Cleveland runs and he was a key part of all GS runs. With all that talk about how mighty the Warriors were without KD, they don't sniff this title without him
He has gotten so much better - this was probably his best playoffs ever - makes me forget Bowen and Leonard intentionally not guarding him or playing 5 feet off of him - if you had to pick one player to build ur team around I'm thinking I would take him over Durant or Leonard (guys in the league now)
