In my opinion Westbrook and lebron have the same type of style there both players that attack the basket, they take it in really strong and are quick and strong.

But Curry is a good player his best talent is shooting three pointers. Kevin Durant is a all around player he can shoot anywhere take it in strong even though he is like a tall skinny stick he is really good and my favorite player with Russell Westbrook. That's how these players had a big impact in basketball history and will never be
