Harden /Ad

The other duo can’t shoot from range and “healthy Wade” post 2011 is a hypothetical player

Wade is clearly better than Harden as he's way more reliable in the playoffs. AD also better than Dwight but the margin isn't big since I consider Dwight a better defender.

Overall it's kind of tough to choose but would probably go Wade/Dwight.

Wade is only more reliable when he is healthy.

2007: Wade
2008: Wade
2009: Wade
2010: Harden
2011: Harden
2012: Wade
2013: Wade
2014: Wade
2015: Harden
2016: Harden
2017: Harden

Keep in mind 2007 is Rookie Wade/Rookie Dwight, which isn't winning anything. 2008 is 2nd year, and they likely aren't winning their either. 2009 Season is interesting, is 3rd year Dwight good enough here to overcome the Cavaliers, Celtics and Lakers?
