This is assuming Lebron is the captain and he's picking his first teammate.


Harden or Russ?


I have to say Harden. He's easier to mold into what you want him to be. He just wouldn't put up much fight when it comes to whose team it is.

And he can shoot a little bit. Most likely a better passer than Russ too.

What do y'all think?

He'd choose Harden, and I don't think he'd even struggle with the decision.

Lebron needs the ball at the end of the games, but can pass very well in those situations. He'd rather be finding Harden than Westbrook in those situations.

LeBron could take Norris Cole, Roberson, Sabonis, and Kyle Singler to the Finals, so it really wouldn't matter.

Harden's game complements his style better though.

Russ would shoot them out of the game in the 4th qtr.

When D'Antoni asked James to run the point this year, he asked one question. "Will it make the team better?"

Neither one. He'd pick Kawhi to have someone to play defense on the other teams best player, and be okay with being the guy not in the spotlight

Oh stop it



Russ and Harden are INSANELY ball dominant. It's pretty interesting to me who he'd pick as a PIC if he HAD to.

Harden is the answer and it isn't really tough either

Russ wants to make mean grimace faces that make MSB fanboys hard. He doesn't want to play fundamental Bron ball

Regardless of who you think is better, the answer is obviously Harden because his game is far more compatible with other great players.

Your extra comments were clearly meant to stoke the flames Harden is a much better catch and shoot guy, I don't think it's close but I am biased. I just think he is easier to fit around other players.

Russ is too similar to LeBron. He'd pick Harden. I think most superstars would probably pick Harden.

First off, my friend..

die.


Now, the farther into Lebron's career we get, it seems like he wants a couple guys who can waste time until he has to make shite happen. He'll dump it off to the scrub Kevin Love and let him flounder around before getting packed into next week(if he can even get the basketball above his shoulders) all day. Until he feels he needs to take over, of course.

I think Lebron and Harden would be the absolute GOAT pair. They both understand how to give and get when it comes to balancing an elite basketball team.

But part of me thinks Lebron would love a teammate carrying the load until he put his foot down. Which...would be Russ.

I legit think it's interesting to debate who Lebron rather ride into a battle with for 1/5 of his career with.
