In 1984, a kid from Akron was born and raised by a single mother. He never had a permanent home. But by 2000, he was famous. By 2009, he was the best player in the NBA. And when he retires, there’s a chance we call him the greatest athlete that ever lived.
In 1988, another kid was born in Akron. He was raised by an NBA player, but it didn’t look like it at first. By 2005, he was a 3-star HS recruit with weak size. By 2012, he was ready to retire with weak ankles. But, by 2016, he became the greatest shooter ever. And last year, he caught up to the first Akron kid in championships.
If you couldn’t tell, Stephen Curry vs LeBron James is a cinematic experience. Two unexpected heroes from different worlds who have fought battles of Marvel proportions. And the script is not done.
Steph has a 15-7 playoff record and 3-1 Finals record vs LeBron. Sure, if Kyrie doesn’t do this or KD doesn’t do that- maybe this looks different. But times have changed.
The worst moment in Steph’s career happened 7 years ago in Game 7. Since then, he’s won 3 championships, became a virtual billionaire, and just dropped the first 50-point game in a Game 7…EVER. It’s the greatest comeback anyone could imagine from the worst collapse anyone has ever seen.
This might be the most important semifinals series in NBA history, because the winner will have a chance at a 5th ring. And whoever wins that ring could change the GOAT debate forever.
NBA script writers definitely got a raise...
