By now the word has spread. The Golden State Warriors and the Philadelphia 76ers both tried to draw up a play to land LeBron James during the trade deadline. Unsurprisingly, James to the Warriors is what blew everyone’s minds. It’s the same team that denied him three championships. Stephen Curry and King James have been battling for over a decade. It’s the one team no one would expect the King to join.

At the point when the Cavaliers and Warriors rivalry was at its peak, there would have been no chance of such a reality playing out. However, since then Curry and James have become friends, Draymond Green has also grown close to him. In the latter stages of their career, the parties have moved past their egos and have found a shared sense of respect.

While James didn’t agree to the trade, fans couldn’t help but wonder what a LeBron James and Curry duo would have looked like. Would it mean the Warriors would become championship favorites? While discussing it on the Come And Talk 2 Me podcast, one host felt they wouldn’t beat any of the top Western Conference sides.

LeBron James and Stephen Curry couldn’t compete in the West?

Come And Talk 2 Me hosts Cam’ron, Ma$e & Treasure Wilson reacted to the Warriors trying to fill up their contention void by attempting a trade for LeBron James. They acknowledged the power it held. A move of that magnitude would be league-altering, and there is no question about it. However, Com’ron wasn’t convinced the tandem would scare anyone in the West.

In fact, he name-dropped all the top teams and said Curry and James wouldn’t be able to beat them. His argument – the presence of two megastars doesn’t translate to chemistry.

“Just because you got superstars on your team it doesn’t equal championship. I don’t think there’s a lot of chemistry between him and Golden State and the Sixers to make them win a championship this second,”. said Cam’ron

He proceeded to say the Phoenix Suns, Boston Celtics, Los Angeles Clippers, Timberwolves, and the Thunder would all beat them if it came down to a showdown. The reason is that these teams have played together for years, at least deep into this season.

It isn’t a baseless argument. Throughout NBA history we have seen teams try and assemble a unit of superstars, it rarely ends in a championship. What made the Chicago Bulls or the Golden State Warriors the undisputed kingpins is the continuity in their roster. They retained most of their impact-making players and built a roster around them. That’s the reason when Kevin Durant came to Golden State, they were instantly successful. The core of Curry, Klay, and Green were able to adjust.

Also, they were at their primes. Right now if Klay Thompson wasn’t traded, he is a shell of himself due to the recurring injuries he suffered. Green sets the tone on both ends of the floor but his instincts aren’t the same. The only player who is still ascending is Stephen Curry.

James and Curry have only played together once, and that was in an All-Star game.

LeBron James would help out drastically. He is a playmaking wizard, an unstoppable transition scorer, and a basketball genius. He would help break down defenses just from his understanding and knowledge alone. Additionally, no one is more dangerous in the postseason than him.

But having an understanding of your teammates, their preferences, the plays, and accepting the culture all takes time. Curry and James would have stirred up something precious. However, would it secure a championship? Probably not.
