Stephen Curry says LeBron James joining Warriors was once a 'pipe dream'

Stephen Curry and LeBron James faced each other in four consecutive NBA Finals between 2015 and 2018. Their rivalry defined a basketball era.

Now, the narrative has shifted. After teaming up for an Olympic gold medal in Paris, the possibility of them playing together in the NBA is real.

"If LeBron says he wants to play for you, you move mountains to get him," Curry told reporters at the American Century Championship. He confirmed the Warriors are in the mix to sign the league's all-time leading scorer.

Curry called the idea a "pipe dream" just a few years ago. "For him going into his 24th season, me going to my 18th... that would be such a unique story in NBA history," he said.

LeBron James recently announced he will leave the Los Angeles Lakers in free agency. Reports indicate his decision will be based on personal happiness, not financial factors.

The Warriors were early favorites but now face stiff competition. The former rivals have evolved into good friends, making a potential partnership all the more compelling.
