LeBron James discussed how Allen Iverson and Curry influenced the game in the video.

When it comes to influence since I've been watching the game, the most influence on the game, Steph and Allen Iverson are the two biggest influential guys in our game. Now you have Steph who's shooting over the Empire state building.

Their eternal friendship is demonstrated by the Lakers star praising the Warriors hero and giving Curry all the credit for being the most influential player. But it’s not just James who displays affection; Curry also made some delicate gestures in an interview the year before.
