I think I understand the KD situation.
They lost last night and KD was complaining he had 35 points and was carrying the team, and he shouldn't have to do so much.
Well - he also had 8 turnovers.
KD thinking he needs the ball more is precisely what sends his team into downturns. They stop playing as a unit, focus on getting him touches which leads to more turnovers and frustration from his teammates about not being involved, this leads to more losses which only encourages KD that he needs to do even more and further depresses his teammates.
It's a vicious cycle that destroys morale.
At this point I am pretty sure we will finish ahead of the Rockets.
