This Wednesday, fans of LeBron James and Stephen Curry learned that their idols could have ended their careers in the same franchise, which would have had the effect of a bombshell. The Chief spoke on this subject at a press conference.
It was the bomb of this midweek: before the deadline, the leaders of the Warriors would have contacted their counterparts at the Lakers to discuss an exchange around LeBron James . Even worse, Draymond Green would have asked his agent and friend Rich Paul to convince the King to come to “northern” California.
As you can imagine, the negotiations did not go very far, but these revelations are still proof that Golden State is looking for ways to return to the title race one last time before the official end of the dynasty. An association between the two best players of the last decade would have had the effect of an earthquake.
Steph Curry reacts to crazy LeBron rumor
If all hopes are not buried for the fans of the two legends, since they could find themselves this summer in Paris for the Olympic Games, their future seems mapped out in the NBA. Despite this, Stephen Curry wanted to react during his last press conference, following his team’s defeat against the Clippers. For him, nothing unusual.
Evan Fournier still interesting at Pistons, Cade Cunningham honest: “It’s different”
I’m never surprised to learn that my team is looking to recruit the best players. I’m rather surprised that this internal information is coming out in the press. I guess all the teams make calls, but the fans don’t always know. We need to normalize what happens in offices. Especially at the deadline.
But seriously, a guy like LeBron James, you have to call, even to find out if it’s a possibility or not. I don’t know how far the discussions between leaders went, but it was a nice little surprise to read that this morning, that’s obvious.
Stephen Curry wasn’t shocked to learn that his Warriors inquired about LeBron James, that’s just life in the NBA as the deadline approaches. He would like fans and the media to understand this, without necessarily drawing hasty conclusions. Finally, he also admitted to having appreciated the surprise represented by this revelation, and he certainly would not have said no if the King had asked to settle down at the Chase Center.
LeBron James and Stephen Curry could potentially have ended their careers together if their leaders had agreed on a trade. The Warriors leader was surprised to learn it, and perhaps even amused.
