James Harden recently spoke highly of Steph Curry, acknowledging the greatness and impact the Golden State Warriors star has had on the sport of basketball. Harden, who currently plays for the LA Clippers, admitted that Curry’s success may be the reason he has yet to secure his first NBA championship.
Reflecting on Curry’s impressive career, Harden emphasized the unbelievable accomplishments that the four-time NBA champion has achieved. He praised Curry for his consistency and skill, highlighting the battles he had to face against the Warriors during his time with the Houston Rockets.
“We’re all witnessing real greatness. The battles, the Warriors teams I had to go against, it’s probably the reason why I still haven’t gotten a championship yet. What he’s been able to do his entire career is unbelievable. I’m happy to be a part of something like that,” Harden expressed.
Curry’s recent performance against the Clippers saw him drop 36 points in a close 124-119 loss. Despite the defeat, the Warriors have advanced to the play-in tournament, where they will have two opportunities to secure a spot in the playoffs. On the other hand, Harden and the Clippers secured the No. 5 seed and will face the Denver Nuggets in the first round of the playoffs.
Looking ahead, Curry and the Warriors remain determined to make a deep playoff run in his 16th NBA season. With the addition of Jimmy Butler to the team, the Warriors have found stability and are poised to make a significant impact in the postseason. Tonight, they will face off against the Memphis Grizzlies in a crucial battle for the No. 7 seed, setting the stage for Curry’s pursuit of his fifth NBA championship.
As Curry continues to excel on the court, his legacy and impact on the game of basketball are undeniable. Harden’s admiration for Curry’s talent and success is a testament to the respect and recognition that the Warriors star receives from his peers in the league. As the playoffs unfold, all eyes will be on Curry and the Warriors as they strive for another championship title.
