Yea, overall I'd probably go harden. Iguodala plays a similar style and is a freak athlete but lacks the scoring touch. Smith is the closest for a pure physical comparison.

Wade is the correct answer here.

Paul George could develop a bit more lebronish. He puts up some rebounding and assist numbers too.

Durant - Like LeBron, there's not very much he can't do on the basketball court... and at an elite level.

I agree with Royce White.

That guy can really fly to the rim. He can pick up some excellent height. Almost looks like a plane the way he flies.

Durant is a much better scorer than Lebron but he doesn't pass or defend anywhere near an elite level like Lebron can

Iggy and Smith immediately came to mind.

If Melo was a little stronger, he'd be in there for sure, but he's a puss.

This. If Lebron was less athletic and failed to live up to is potential, he'd be Lamar odom.
