We don't need Russel to shoot, we don't even want Russel to shoot.. He plays D and gets rebounds. Between Wilt , Jordan and Bird we get about 85 points per game average. Magic gets 15 and with assists ups Larry to 30 PPG instead of 20 +. With Bird and Magic making passes , Wilt and Jordan score way above their lifetime averages.
My guess is this team scores 120 points a game and with Russel on D allows about 80 PPG
In fact if I had to play West , I sit down Jordan , not Magic. With Magic West and Bird on the court you'd have to use slow motion replays to follow the ball as it got passed around the court
Obviously we have a different view of Magic. Magic was one of the greatest of all time. He was a play maker , not a scoring machine. Without him the Lakers win zero Championships during the Bird era.
