Bold Steph Curry and former NBA player's LeBron James prediction

This new era of NBA superstardom is not only upon us, it has broken it down. LeBron James, Steph Curry and Kevin Durant all failed to make it out of the first round for the first time in what feels like forever, and it's unclear if they'll ever be in the NBA Finals again.

In fact, former NBA player and ESPN analyst Tim Legler believes none of the three will ever win a championship again.

“I can’t imagine that,” Legler said on “Get Up.” “Steph Curry isn't leaving Golden State – he's going to play his last game in a Warriors uniform, and I just don't know how they're going to do.” Build this team as far as you need to with the competition . Some of these young teams are young stars in the Western Conference.

Based on what these NBA playoffs have shown, it's hard to disagree with Tim Legler. However, you can never discount LeBron James, Steph Curry or Kevin Durant – even if none of them made it past the first round.

“Think about it – they’re home. The first round is over. These guys are all watching at the same time as this next generation of players take the stage and perform,” Legler said. “Because these guys are not only on good teams that win, they also make it incredibly entertaining.”

Anything can happen in the NBA. The Phoenix Suns went from seeming like perennial championship contenders in 2021 to never getting past the second round again. For this reason alone, no one should discount Steph Curry and Lebron James.
