At last year’s deadline, the Golden State Warriors made inquiries on the prospect of dealing for LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers.
However, negotiations came to a standstill as James was purportedly unreceptive to the notion. Although James has said in the past that he would most like to work with Steph Curry before his career ends, it appears that he only said so since both players seemed content with their present teams.
In an installment of his recently launched “Heat Check” podcast, Curry talked about the prospect of joining forces with James prior to both legends’ retirement, stating that it is something he is excited to do in Team USA basketball rather than the NBA. “Obviously you just want to play around greatness and see that kind of talent on display every single night,” Curry said regarding James.
That may make for some intriguing reading. Before we leave here, perhaps we’ll get that—maybe not in the NBA, but maybe on a Team USA mentality. That would be fantastic.
Several of the best players in the NBA will be representing their nations in the Olympics in Paris, including Curry and James. The chance for supporters to witness the two finest players of this generation together on a single squad will be fantastic.
