LeBron or Ben Simmons with MPJ's shooting
MPJ's shooting touch appears to address the only big deficiency of Ben Simmons.

There is more that separates LeBron from Simmons than his shooting. He had a markedly different mentality as a player than Simmons, with an understanding of the game that is almost without peer.
Simmons could have Curry's shooting and it is still likely that LeBron would be the more valuable player.

I think mentality is related to ability. With Porter's shooting, Ben would be a better player than Durant, both offensively and defensively, right? That may change his mentality and confidence greatly.
