Steph Curry et LeBron James

For years, NBA fans have been accustomed to seeing Stephen Curry and LeBron James engage in merciless battles in the league.

For the Paris Olympics, the two superstars are now a pair and have thus developed a secret weapon together.

In addition to having one of the most impressive teams in history on paper, Team USA has two of the greatest players of all time in its ranks, namely LeBron James and Stephen Curry.

For several years, the latter have maintained a legendary rivalry.

We all remember the four duels in the NBA Finals between the Cavaliers and the Warriors between 2015 and 2018.

But for almost two years, rumors of an association between the two superstars have been circulating in the league.

And to the delight of fans of the orange ball sport and American supporters, they are finally reunited.

It is within the framework of the Paris Olympics with the United States selection.

They had never participated in an Olympics together, and now they have.

LeBron and Steph Curry’s secret weapon
Although they don’t play in the same franchise, LeBron and Steph Curry both defend the colors of Uncle Sam’s country.

To do this, they even implemented a duo strategy.

This tactic was named “Too small”, which means “Too small” in French, simply because the Chief is the smallest in his group at 1.88 meters.

And especially because he can take on a role similar to that of a center.

I am a good screen setter and I can confuse opponents when LeBron has the ball.

We do it a bit in Golden State: someone else has the ball and I come and set my screen.

After that we have a lot of different plays to execute, but if LeBron is going to the rim, good luck to anyone trying to stop him and seeing me spilling into the gaps.

I’m just trying to force teams to make decisions, and the quicker you force them to make decisions on defense, the more likely you are to create confusion.

Usually, the Big Men are more often seen as the screeners, but the geniuses that are the King and the Splash Brother have come up with this idea to reverse their roles in a way.

Although he’s the leader of the Warriors, on this team, the two-time MVP has to take a step back.

There may be parallels here with the pairing he formed with Kevin Durant. Will this tactic help Team USA win gold? For now, Steve Kerr’s men are doing well, but we can’t say that Curry is finding his feet in this system, for now.

For the very first time, Stephen Curry and LeBron James are reunited at the Olympic Games with Team USA.
