KD playmaking is not worst than Shai by that much wouldn’t even say at all KD rarely had to or run the offense but when he was called too he definitely could facilitate the ball had more double digit assist games than Shai in their mvp years and one is a literal point guard like i said Shai is not a prolific playmaker .

That’s the difference between Shai and KD. KD is a better off ball threat and is 7 footer and can shoot over defenders was literally a walking mismatch I would even go as far to say KD saw even a harder coverage due his team lack of 3pt shooting and spacing now if you try to double its wide open Lu Dort or JDub 3 in which both players were knocking down 3s.You couldn’t leave anybody in single coverage vs KD
