It’s easy to see NBA players being compared, especially in this era when the public is the one trying to create rivalries. Things have changed a lot from the 1990s and 2000s, and some fans want to push their narrative at any cost.
This happens a lot with the GOAT debate, which often includes LeBron James and Michael Jordan. Another big debate in the league involves the King again, and Stephen Curry. These two are generational talents that have clashed many times over the years.
Kevin Garnett recently talked about them, praising their greatness and rivalry over the years.
“I think we need to sit back and appreciate that we’re watching two of the greatest play, and their teams play,” Garnett said on KG Certified. “It’s nice to see these two, these two dynamics go against each other. When we sit back and watch these two, they would have either won or stood in each other’s way of winning. And that’s how I look at it. The things LeBron has accomplished, and affected the game from a cultural standpoint, from people wanting to be like, play like, style of play, taking away from other styles, coming into a whole new generation.
“Then have it taken from you. Like, now it’s a Steph Curry age, where everybody wants to shoot the ball from distance and have accuracy. And you’re being measured off of that. You know, great point guard play now is about how far you can shoot it out and how consistent you can do that. But Steph Curry has changed the culture and how we see basketball and it’s dope to see these two generational talents kind of go at it.
“We’re going to go back to these games right here and it’s gonna be biblical.”
KG has been very actively speaking of these two recently. Back in October, the 2008 NBA champion said we’re no longer in the LeBron James era, as Stephen Curry overtook the King.
Comparisons between these two won’t stop anytime soon, and even after this season, many people will make a case for one of them. Some say whoever wins their second-round series will win the matchup, but that’s a reach.
However, if the one getting the win in this series ends up winning the championship, things could change for a lot of fans. It remains to be seen if this happens, but the series now looks very favorable for one of them.
LeBron James And Stephen Curry Are Playing One Of Their Final Playoff Duels
The LeBron James-led Los Angeles Lakers are currently 3-1 up against the Warriors, and they could finish this series tonight with a win at Chase Center. The Dubs once again struggled on the road and the Lakers took a commanding lead that they will try to capitalize today.
Stephen Curry and the Warriors are keen to not let that happen and show that they can turn things around. The odds aren’t in their favor, but the Warriors have returned from a 3-1 deficit before. Things could get very interesting if Golden State survives another game.
