Which one of the two OKC trios are you taking and why?

Re: Better big 3 - relative to era
I went with KD/Harden/Westbrook. Their fit isn't nearly as good as the 23/24 trio but I do think Jalen Williams is a bit of an odd man out. He's great and showing plenty of promise but the level he's playing at now doesn't stack up to where Westbrook, Harden and KD were at the same age imo. SGA is also the oldest here by a good margin tbf.

Let's see them finish the season and play in the playoffs. It's a good comp but don't want to commit on small sample size.
