NBA OGs: Friends & Rivals | LeBron James, Kevin Durant & Stephen Curry

[Panther]

Over the summer, the legendary trio of LeBron James, Steph Curry and Kevin Durant teamed up for the first time, as members of the USA Basketball squad at the 2024 Olympics. During their Olympic run, they sat down in Lille, France for an exclusive conversation about how their careers have intertwined over the years, what they admire about each other’s games and their take on the next generation of NBA stars.

Figured this deserved its own thread. I'll update as each new part drops.

I get it though....you got two brehs that are Top 15-ish teaming up to take you down. Bron (probably) feels like it enhances his legacy.

Bron is competitive like Magic Johnson. Always wants to win but usually has a smile on his face. They're not on that MJ/Kobe, "I'll roast your unborn children" steez.

This is a sick and insightful interview. All the wars they been through vs each other. All of them either winning Chips off each other or together. I still wish KD didn't go to GSW because even the OKC-GSW rivalry could have been epic but there's no denying all three's greatness and legendary status in their own right.

 

[get these nets]

Thanks
That gotdamned JR Smith

 

[THE 101]

God can the league focus on some new players for a change

The sooner all three retire the better. It'll force them to cover other players.

 

[Street Knowledge]

The test of whether or not they will be “hating old heads” is when some player or fans state 40 years from now that Steph couldn’t hang today, or that the 2017 warriors would get run off the court by insert team here.

Smiling to cover up the hurt.

Same as you do when your mother walks downstairs after you had a b ball debate with me.
