The difference is that it doesn’t really matter, and you are saying it yourself. Prime Jordan is probably not beating the Suns either, so who cares if Kevon Looney or Westbrook is losing as the first option against him.
While Westbrook is better as a first option than most NBA players, that skill set is actually heavily overrated when you are inefficient at it. Contenders with elite offenses always have elite efficient first options that have always been better than Westbrook (Curry, KD, Lebron, Luka, Giannis, Jokic)
As for secondary help, Westbrook is horrible now. He has everything you wouldn’t want from a non first option (Except for passing)
Volume Shooting while inefficient
Adds zero spacing
Bad team defender
Big Ego
Dumb plays
