A pair of writers for Dime Magazine make their cases. The general argument against West is that he doesn’t have as much upside and he benefits greatly from playing alongside Chris Paul. An excerpt from the argument for D-West:
Making a living on wide-open jumpers from the top of the key might not get him on “SportsCenter” every night, but it has got West to the past two All-Star games; two more than Aldridge to date. And even with a two-inch height advantage on West, Aldridge has only registered 12 double-doubles all season, while West has 11 in his last 17 games.
