Has there ever been an all star-level duo that has played together on different teams as many times as James Harden and Russell Westbrook have? (alien.top)

With Harden joining the Clippers, this is now the 3rd separate time he has teamed up with Westbrook. Obviously Harden came off the bench in OKC, but was 6MOTY and played significant minutes with Westbrook, then of course, later in Houston.

Besides Harden and Durant in both OKC and Brooklyn, or even Lebron and D Wade in Miami and Cleveland, I can't think of many other all star caliber (or former all star) duos teaming up more than once.

Ray Allen & Sam Cassel in 2001 Bucks & 2008 Celtics

Oh...hadn't thought of that.

Interesting tidbit. That'll be a great trivia question 20 years from now. Lock that in young bucks. You're going to impress the nephews of 2040 with that one ;-)

Ray Allen and Rashard Lewis on Sonics and Heat. Pierce and Garnett on Celtics and Nets (although they were traded together, sort of cheating). Horace Grant and Shaq on Magic and Lakers.

I despise both their games so it is pretty fun watching them get bounced all over the league while the stat heads try to find a way to blame everyone else for their lack of playoff success
