I think if Klay had a small role on those teams it would be one thing, but given that he's one of the best players on the team it definitely adds to his Warriors credentials in my opinion. Especially the way he emerged last season, he was their best player for a good chunk of the playoffs. Averaged over 30 a game in the Portland series and really carried them the games Steph was out.
Mitch's Warriors resume will be 3 seasons of scoring about 20 a night, with two second round playoff exits, no All Star teams, no All NBA teams. Klay has been their 6 years his scoring is slightly less due to his first two years, but the last 3 are actually better. He's got a championship, two finals appearances, likely what will be his 3rd All Star team this year, likely his 3rd All NBA team, wouldn't be surprised if he got his first all defensive team either.
If his career continues what it's been for the past two-three seasons now he will EASILY be a hall of fame player. Maybe not quite the level of what Mitch was, but that's more in comparison to his Kings career than his Warriors career.
I guess it does depend on how you match your criteria. But from my perspective I'm not basing what a player did on one franchise to credit it towards another. Mitch was a good player in Golden State but he wasn't his team's go-to guy either, he wasn't the bonafide 2nd to Jordan shooting guard yet, wasn't an All Star yet, wasn't with the team for very long, and achieved very little overall success in comparison to what Klay has achieved.
