So here they are again, two titans of sport, each feathered with accolades, chasing yet another champagne shower, this time
While trying to keep Father Time locked in a trunk under the smallest postseason stage they’ve ever shared.
Steph Curry and LeBron James, the only active NBA players with multiple MVP awards and multiple championship rings
Deserve to compete for nothing less than the Larry O’Brien Trophy signifying the best team in the league.
But only one of them can have a direct path.
It’s the Warriors vs. the Lakers, in Los Angeles on Wednesday. Sometime late that night, either Curry or James will take his team immediately into the NBA playoffs. The losing team will join its first-ballot Hall of Famer for one more detour that could lead to those same playoffs.
A win over the Memphis Grizzlies on Sunday put Curry and the Warriors into the No. 8 seed, with the No. 7 seed still undecided. He did, however, address the possibility facing old frenemy LeBron and the Lakers.
“You expect greatness,” he said Sunday. “That’s the part I’ve enjoyed so much about playing in Finals against him, against those Cleveland teams in those games that matter. It brings out another level of intensity and excitement and a sense of urgency because you know how good you have to play to win games like that.
“If it happens on Wednesday, it’s the same kind of scenario with just a different situation with the play-in situation.”
