No I don't agree with this at all. LeBron can't go through an entire regular season with a 42% usg like Westbrook has, which would be required to give them a better record. I don't think he has that in him anymore.
And the fact is it's REAL hard to argue LeBron would do better than Harden when Harden's team currently has a better record with LESS talent.
I agree, LeBron wouldn't have a 42% usage rate, because LeBron is smarter than that. Nobody in the NBA plays harder than Westbrook but there absolutely players who play smarter, Harden and LeBron are among those. I absolutely think LeBron could get a better win record out of OKC, even though he probably wouldn't have the same numbers. I can see the Harden argument, but I just don't see LeBron with that amount of shooters, in Hardens role, with all that spacing not being able to replicate what he's doing. The issue of course is that Harden is a better free throw shooter and 3 point shooter, but I still think 'Brons defensive upside would be able to counteract at least some of that and his basketball I.Q. and leadership would upset the rest.
