'Stephen Curry wasn't buying Lebron James' 3 rim story': Lakers star was ridiculed by Steph for his triple vision theory

Warriors’ superstar Stephen Curry laughs off LeBron James describing his experience of hitting the game-winner while seeing three rims 

The Golden State Warriors lost their golden chance to clinch the 7th seed in the Western Conference. Stephen Curry and his Warriors fell short 103-100 to the defending world champions, the Los Angeles Lakers. Stephen Curry put on his usual show, scoring a game-high 37 points, grabbing 7 rebounds, while going 6-9 from 3. Andrew Wiggins was spectacular, scoring 21 points, and providing the Warriors with timely buckets whenever they were required. Draymond Green was a pillar of defense and provided his usual brilliance.

For the Lakers, Anthony Davis scored a team-high 25 points and grabbed 12 rebounds. LeBron James recorded a triple-double, scoring 22 points, grabbing 11 rebounds, and dishing 10 assists. The defending champions now would make their way to Phoenix to face the Suns.

Stephen Curry was having none of LeBron James’ drama

After the game, LeBron James gave an interview where he said he was seeing things thrice. He also commented on how he saw 3 rims and aimed for the middle one for the dagger shot. After the interview, LBJ was seen going to Curry and describing the same. However, in the clip, it shows like Curry was having none of that. He was seen laughing and telling LeBron to ‘get the f**k outta here’.

Stephen Curry and his Warriors now have an uphill task in front of them again. They have a re-match of last Sunday’s match. They face the Grizzlies at Chase center again. However, this time the stakes are higher. Instead of fighting for seeding, they are battling for the final playoff spot. The game on Friday would be a win or go home game for both teams. Whoever manages to secure the win would head to Salt Lake City to face the Jazz.
