During an ESPN special for the NBA's Christmas Day action, Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James, Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant and Golden State Warriors guard Steph Curry sat down for an interview and discussed their journeys in the league. Among the topics of conversation, of course, was the rivalry between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Warriors which dominated the sport throughout the 2010s.
The rivalry between James's Cavaliers and Curry's Golden State team included four consecutive matchups in the NBA Finals from 2015 to 2018, three of which were won by the Warriors. During their sitdown ahead of Christmas, James compared the battle between the two sides to "a rap beef."
