One large difference between when Steph got injured vs KD (Obviously Steph's was grade 1, KD grade 2). But last year when Steph came back, he was our go to, #1 option. We needed him to be great. When KD (hopefully) returns, not that we don't need him to be great, but it's not like he's our only go to option. Steph can take over. If we had KD last year when Steph was struggling through getting better that obviously would have helped a lot. It sucks he got hurt, but this result is better than 100% ruled out. And we do still have the 2 time MVP, with Draymond &amp; Klay. Hopefully KD will be back by round 1 tho.
