How would you rank the original OKC big three? In past years, the consensus has generally been Durant in first, Westbrook in second, and Harden in third.

But with Harden averaging 32 points and 9 assists, I think you can make a case that he's better than Durant. Over these past few seasons, he has been a one-man wrecking crew in a way that Durant has never been. Westbrook is averaging a near triple double again, but I'm inclined to rank him last because of OKC's relative lack of success.

Durant is better when you factor in defense.

I have Harden as the second best player in the league right now after LeBron. Durant is third. Westbrook sixth after Giannis and Kawhi.

Correct order, but harden is far closer to Durant than Westbrook is that harden.

Begrudgingly agree. Although to be fair I dislike all three of them to varying extents. Only KD I like as a basketball player.

It’s funny that back when okc traded harden, people thought I was silly for saying they should have traded Westbrook. I think they keep Durant with harden, and that pairing works well on and off court.

Since the last poll, Westbrook has won the MVP, averaging a triple double, and Durant has won a championship and finals MVP. The only improvement any of these players have made is Durant becoming one of the best defensive players in the league. So...the order is still the same. Durant. Westbrook. Harden.
