Swap Lebron with Westbrook...

[GimmeThat]

they make the ECF Pacers defense look like kiddy play.

your mentality is retarded as phuck.

Of course he's better than current LeBron. Better at basically everything.

I hope this is a joke

No doubt WB has been beasting this season, but come on now.

I don't even like Lebron that much but this can't be a serious argument.

okay "russwest0" thank you for the unbiased insightful analysis of these players

[imdaman99]

They both probably improve. Cleveland looks listless at times, which Westbrook would improve on. The fact that he would have to cover the better guard every time wouldn't help, as you can't really put Kyrie on any of the top guards. But knowing that Westbrook will guard opposing stud PGs like Lillard or Wall a lot better than Kyrie will, would help immensely.

KD + Lebron would be an impossible tandem to deal with. Who would stop them in the West? Not that Lebron has a great track record against the West, but Durant would be the scorer and Lebron could become Magic-lite.

All those OKC fans claiming Lebron is worse than Westbrook, but think that the Cavs should easily make it to the Finals? OKC better win the chip easily, if that's the case.

Are you just now discovering how shit the Eastern Conference is and are confused or something?

[AirFederer]

Bron and Durant would be killin' it

[russwest0]

LeBron is better than Westbrook right now because he still gets more coverage on ESPN - LeBron stans.

These retards don't even think before they post. Just mindless blood sucking insects. No semblance of intelligence to be found.

LOL @ 20Four. Dude you are just one of a kind. Everyone cringes at every post that you make. There's something beautiful about it.

As for the OP, LeBron and Durant together would shut down the league. No way would OKC not be better, and I guarantee you they would accept that trade in a heartbeat if they could.

nah bruh - you're going off past reputation here, because westbrook has clearly become the more dangerous player.

he's become to slow to play the primary ballhandler role as much as he does, and simply can't disrupt the defense like westbrook does... accordingy, lebron's stats nowadays are achieved in a way that doesn't hurt the other team or enhance his team's effectiveness against the better teams as much as westbrook's stats do.

otoh, westbrook is fast as lightning, and the way he gets his buckets forces the defense to make adjustments.

why wouldn't they be better with the best player in the world, Lebron James?

Lebron is bigger, stronger, more efficient, better playmaker, better scorer, better 3 point shooter, better rebounder, more versatile, experienced champion etc etc etc

Lebron not being quite as quick as he was when Westbrook's age?

Lebron is 30, arguably past his prime, and is still the better player.

[FatComputerNerd]

Russ has ridiculous athletic ability, and an alpha/killer mindset, but where will that get him once his athleticism starts to fade in a few years? He seems to me to be a relatively low b-ball IQ player, who relies primarily on his physical gifts, and ability to go hulk-mode, (aka mild retardation).

I don't see him as having the fundamental skills that guys like Kobe, Duncan, etc did. The fundamentals and B-Ball IQ that enabled them to continue GOAT'ing when well-past their primes.

again, ur just going off reputation, because lebron clearly is not the quick, defense-disrupting player he used to be.

in reality, he's too big and slow to still be playing the primary ball-handler role, so his stats no longer represent quick, dynamic, defense-disrupting offense like he used to have (and like westbrook currenty has), and instead lebron's stats represent the team conforming around his slower-paced production, which results in his team playing below what is necessary to win at a high level.

just ask the spurs.

you'll see when he underachieves again this year despite once again having the most stacked team in the league.
