LeBron James says Warriors' Steph Curry would be 'great' in any NBA era

LeBron James and Steph Curry have been rivals for the past five years, meeting in the NBA Finals four years in a row before James joined the Los Angeles Lakers in 2018. People even have believed that the two aren't friendly adversaries, as James seemed to send some disrespect Curry's way after blocking his shot in Game 6 of the 2016 NBA Finals.

But in an Instagram comment on Wednesday, LeBron said he believes Steph would be a legend no matter when he played in the NBA.

The original question posed on the Instagram post was about whether Curry would be as effective a player in the rough-and-tumble 1990s, when physical play was much more of a standard practice in the NBA.
