Which upgrade would make the 2017 Warriors more invincible by replacing one of the starters? Assume Embiid stays healthy.

LeBron because Embiid still has unfortunate health questions, Prime LeBron doesn't.

Prime LeBron with prime Durant, prime Curry and prime Thompson? Every team would have to tank, the team that sucked the most at tank would faced the Warriors in the finals and get stomped .

Have to assume Embiid healthy.
Peak LeBron was better than Embiid, but Draymond was a DPOY level and high level player, unlike Zaza, so the differential is larger on Embiid side, I would assume.

Green
Embiid
I don't think LeBron would match Draymond's defensive prowess at that point in his career. Alternatively, if you go with Embiid, you can keep Green and massively upgrade the center position. I voted Embiid. 5 elite players vs. 4 elite players. I like the rim pressure he provides for this shooting lineup as well.
