<p>Not even the most optimistic <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Golden State Warriors</a></strong> fan ev<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/stephen-curry" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">er thought <strong>Stephen Curry</strong></a><strong> </strong>would turn out to be this good. He’s <strong>changed the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NBA</a> forever </strong>and has a strong case for being considered one of the best point guards of all time.</p>



<p>A bit of <strong>a late bloomer </strong>because of injuries, Curry never looked back once he established himself amongst the league’s elite. And it still seems like he could go strong for another five years at the very least.</p>



<p>But we already know that’s not usual in this league. We don’t <strong>see too many <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lebron-james" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">LeBron James</a> or Kareem Abdul-Jabbars</strong> in terms of longevity, and Curry will have to retire eventually.</p>



<h2>Stephen Curry Reveals When He’ll Stop Playing Basketball</h2>



<p>With that in mind, the<strong> four-time NBA champion</strong> shed some light on his plans for the future, letting it be known when he plans to walk away from the game of basketball.</p>



<p>“<em><strong>I feel like that if I don’t get nervous or adrenaline, that’ll be the sign that I need to quit because it won’t matter,” </strong></em>Curry said. <em>“The nerves, obviously, just indicate that I want to be successful, and it’s meaningful what I’m doing. So I hope to be nervous for many more years to come.”</em></p>

<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lebron-james">LeBron James</a></strong> has a salary of <strong>$44.47 million with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-lakers">Los Angeles Lakers</a></strong>. He is one of a few players in the NBA who earns over $40 million per year. However, even though his salary is large, he recently joked about the idea of playing in Saudi Arabia.</p>



<p>Not only James, but other players have also joked about how big their salaries would be if they played in a Saudi Arabian basketball league.<strong> This is after a soccer team from Saudi Arabia offered €700 million+ to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Kylian Mbappe</a>.</strong></p>



<p>It is unlikely that the top NBA players will go to play in <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/saudi-arabia">Saudi Arabia</a></strong>. However, money is not a problem for Saudi investors, who could easily inject money into <strong>the already established Saudi Premier League of Basketball.</strong></p>



<h2>Who other than LeBron James expressed interest in playing in Saudi Arabia?</h2>



<p>LeBron James said in a recent tweet that he would consider playing in Saudi Arabia if <strong>Rich Paul of Klutch Sports and Maverick Carter also joined the trip</strong>. In addition to James, a Golden State Warriors champion has expressed interest. Draymond Green said in a tweet that his contract’s ink was still fresh.</p>



<figure class="aligncenter size-full wp-block-image"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="450" height="493" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/07/28110315/LeBron-James-tweet-saudi-arabia-450x493.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-35015" sizes="(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px"></figure></div></figure>



<p>Draymond Green has a much lower salary than LeBron James. He will earn $25.81 million over the next four years. If a Saudi Arabian basketball team offers Draymond a four-year contract of $200 million, he is likely to ‘consider’ that offer.</p>

<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/stephen-curry">Steph Curry</a></strong> knows perfectly what it is to win an <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba">NBA </a></strong>championship. He has won four rings, and all of them playing for the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors">Golden State Warriors</a></strong>. He is a humble man who recognizes other great players who could never win a ring like him.</p>



<p>Life seems unfair to some top players like<strong> Charles Barkley, Karl Malone, and Steve Nash</strong>, who could never win a championship ring despite playing with a top-notch roster in their era.</p>



<p>On the other hand, Steph Curry has a large collection of championship rings that he started in 201<strong>5. This collection also includes back-to-back NBA Finals wins in 2017 and 2018. </strong>Curry and the Warriors are likely to win one more title before retiring.</p>



<h2>Which players would Steph Curry give a ring to if he could?</h2>



<p>During a recent episode of Big Boys TV, Steph Curry was talking from his home about a few things when the host asked him which players he would give one of his four rings to if he could. <strong>Curry replied, “Steve Nash and Reggie Miller.”</strong></p>

<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chris-paul" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Chris Paul</a></strong>&nbsp;arriving in the Bay area was one of the&nbsp;<strong>biggest moves in recent&nbsp;<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NBA&nbsp;</a>history.&nbsp;</strong>Of course, he’s no longer in his prime, but he could still make the<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;<strong>Golden State Warriors</strong></a> a lot better.</p>



<p>Even so, we simply cannot ignore the fact that Paul has starred in several back-and-forths with some Warriors stalwarts. He’s always been a bit of&nbsp;<strong>a sworn enemy</strong>, sort of speak.</p>



<p>Nonetheless, despite&nbsp;<strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/draymond-green" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Draymond Green</a>&nbsp;openly admitting that he doesn’t actually like him,&nbsp;</strong>Paul is looking forward to teaming up with him, and he feels sorry for their rivals already.</p>



<h2>Chris Paul Makes Bold Statement About Playing With Draymond Green</h2>



<p>“<strong><em>Draymond is– I’m sorry about teams that’s got to play against the both of us because he’s always been very vocal, as I am,”</em></strong>&nbsp;Paul said.<em>&nbsp;“I’ve always thrived with guys like that.”</em></p>



<p>At the end of the day, the thing that makes them despise each other is pretty much one of the things that also made them so great:&nbsp;<strong>They’re just relentless competitors.</strong></p>

Chris Paul breaks the silence on playing with Draymond Green

Chris Paul breaks the silence on playing with Draymond Green - Bolavip US

<p>Last week, <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/philadelphia-76ers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Philadelphia 76ers </a></strong>star <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/joel-embiid" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Joel Embiid</a></strong> made the rounds for not-so-positive reasons. He put the fans on notice by stating that he <strong>wants to win an <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NBA</a> championship </strong>even if it’s not with the Sixers.</p>



<p>Embiid later took to Twitter to claim that he was just trolling, and<strong> GM Daryl Morey</strong> made it clear that he’s still committed to the organization. Then again, that wasn’t enough to appease the rumor.s</p>



<p>With that in mind, <strong>Sixers insider Keith Pompey </strong>recently stated that there’s a big chance that Embiid forces his way out to the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-knicks" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New York Knicks,</a> </strong>as<strong> Leon Rose </strong>used to be his agent and he already has a place up there.</p>



<h2>Knicks Could Trade For Embiid</h2>



<p><strong><em>“I can see it absolutely happening. Joel already owns a house in New York for a while and the worst-kept secret is that the Knicks have been compiling their first-round draft picks hoping and praying that Joel Embiid asks out,” </em></strong>Pompey said on Sirius XM NBA Radio.</p>



<p><em><strong>“Because if you add Joel Embiid to that team, that team is gonna be catapulted into being one of the top teams in the East,”</strong></em> the insider added.</p>

<p>Narratives and rivalries aside, the fact that Paul will play for the Dubs <strong>seems kind of surreal.</strong> But he’s one of the greatest players of all time, and should be able to adjust as such.</p>



<p>Most people think that the obvious thing to do is to <strong>have him back up <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/stephen-curry" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Stephen Curry</a> </strong>as their Sixth Man. However, coach<strong> Steve Kerr </strong>recently stated he doesn’t know how they’ll use him next season.</p>



<h2>Steve Kerr Doesn’t Know If Chris Paul Will Start</h2>



<p><em><strong>“All of that will happen in training camp,” </strong></em>Kerr told Mercury News. <em><strong>“Until we get everyone on the floor, we won’t be able to assess what’s best for our team </strong>and how everything is going to look. But I’m very confident that it’s going to work out”.</em></p>



<p><em>“We got great guys and we got great champions, great competitors,”</em> Kerr added. <strong><em>“There’s one goal next year, and that’s to win at the highest possible level. Everything else will unfold as the season does.”</em></strong></p>

Steve Kerr is unsure about Chris Paul's role with the Warriors - Bolavip US

<p><strong>Steve Kerr’s</strong> arrival changed the course of the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Golden State Warriors</a>‘</strong> history forever. They became the<strong> most feared dynasty in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NBA</a></strong>, and one of the greatest teams in the history of the league.</p>



<p>Kerr has now established himself as one of the finest tacticians in the league. He even<strong> coached his way up to Team USA</strong> and could go down as one of the most successful coaches of all time.</p>



<p>Notably, one of Kerr’s major adjustments was to trust <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>Draymond Green</strong> </a>and keep him in the starting lineup even after<strong> David Lee</strong> was back to full strength. Even so, Green recently admitted that he didn’t actually respect him as a tactician until this year.</p>



<h2>It Took 11 Years For Draymond Green To Respect Steve Kerr</h2>



<p><strong><em>“I can be 100 percent honest with you, I never understood or respected Steve Kerr’s brilliance as much as I have after this year,” </em></strong>Green said on Patrick Beverley’s podcast. <em><strong>“And I think a large part of it was my immaturity– The more I learned about the game, the more Steve Kerr’s brilliance is so evident to me.”</strong></em></p>



<p><strong><em>“This dude, he always knows the right adjustment,</em></strong>” continued Green. <em>“We beat Sacramento (Kings) in this series, we really should’ve lost in Sac–Steph Curry in that Game 7 was obviously great, he is incredible. Nuts. He wasn’t letting us lose.”</em></p>



<p><em>“Steph didn’t let us lose Game 7, but Steve got us through every other one of those games with adjustments,”</em> Green added.<strong><em> “He was just making adjustments and then obviously you gotta go play but those adjustments, he got us through that series and then Steph did what he did (in) Game 7 and sent them home.”</em></strong></p>



<p><em>“I walk into film and he’s just sitting there, legs crossed, sit back in his chair, leaned back– and he just has a smirk on his face,” </em>Green added.<em> “We just lost the f***ing game and he just sits back there with his legs crossed with a little smirk on his face. I walk in like, <strong>‘What up coach? What up? Coach, I saw this. I watched the film.’ I come in with my notes and s***… And he’s like, ‘Yeah they were doing this, but I got this adjustment.’ </strong>Man, he is a mastermind.”</em></p>



<p><strong>“<em>And I think one other important trait that Steve has is he’s so confident and certain of himself that he ain’t afraid to let one of his guys take the wheel,” </em></strong>continued the power forward. <em>“Whether that’s me, whether that’s something Steph thinks– I’m telling you, man, dude is a mastermind. And it really took me until my 11th year to really be able to understand it.”</em></p>

<p>Finally the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/charlotte-hornets">Charlotte Hornets</a></strong> left the hands of <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/michael-jordan">Michael Jordan </a></strong>and now the new owners hope that the franchise will be much better than before, but the sale was not as easy as everyone thinks since an NBA owner did not agree.</p>



<p>It is estimated that Michael Jordan <strong>made around $3 billion from the sale of the franchise</strong>. This was a good deal for him, as the Hornets never won an NBA championship during his years as owner.</p>



<p>The good news for the new owners, led by Gabe Plotkin and Rick Schnall, is that the franchise has a strong young core that could define the future of the team over the next two seasons. If they have enough talent, they could make it to the postseason.</p>



<h2>Who was the NBA owner who opposed the sale of the Charlotte Hornets?</h2>



<p>The <strong>board of governors approved the sale of the franchise 29-1</strong>, <strong>with James Dolan, owner of the New York Knicks, being the lone dissenting vote</strong>. Dolan’s vote against the sale was apparently symbolic, as it did not change the outcome of the vote.</p>



<figure class="aligncenter size-full wp-block-image"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="830" height="400" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/07/28110419/woj-hornets-knicks-vote-against-sale-jordan-830x400.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-34620" sizes="(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px"></figure></div></figure>



<p>Michael Jordan will continue to have a small part of the franchise as a minority owner, but the big decisions will now be made by the new owners. The new owners want to end the franchise’s losing streak of never having won a playoff series since Jordan owned it.</p>

<p><strong>Stephen Curry</strong> is one of the greatest players in NBA history.

<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/oklahoma-city-thunder">Oklahoma City Thunder</a></strong> has one of the youngest rosters in the league, and they are betting that players like <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chet-holmgren">Chet Holmgren</a></strong> will be the future of the franchise and that they will help not only the franchise, but also Team USA at some point.</p>



<p>However, having a young core does not guarantee anything for the Thunder, as not all of the youngsters on the roster are of the same caliber. <strong>Only a couple are likely to make it far with the franchise.</strong></p>



<p>On the other hand, the <strong>2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup</strong> is getting closer, and although the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/usmnt">United States</a></strong> will not have the biggest names on their roster, they hope that the players they select will be more than enough.</p>



<h2>Who are the two Thunder players who were called up for the Team USA training camp?</h2>



<p>The United States will play in the 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup, but they are still finalizing the list of 12 players. For now, they are holding training camps, and <strong>Chet Holmgren and Jalen Williams were two of the Thunder players recently called up for the training camp.</strong></p>

<p>Allen Iverson is one of the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba">NBA </a></strong>legends who played in the league from 1996 to 2010 with four different franchises, and <strong>was named All-Star, MVP, and Scoring Champion 11 times, among other awards</strong>.</p>



<p>However, he never won a championship. Iverson is one of those top players who never won a ring,<strong> but his legacy is one of the strongest in the league compared to other players who did win championships.</strong></p>

<h2>What are the three players that Iverson named in the Goat conversation?</h2>



<p>In a recent interview, Allen Iverson said that<strong> Kobe Bryant, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lebron-james">LeBron James</a>, and Michael Jordan should all be in the GOAT conversation.</strong> He noted that Kobe is often left out of the conversation because advanced stats favor LeBron and Jordan.</p>

LeBron James gets heartfelt message from Lionel Messi - Bolavip US

<p>It took only a year and a half for <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/james-harden">James Harden</a></strong> to request a trade out of the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/philadelphia-76ers">Philadelphia 76ers</a></strong>, who made an effort to get him in February 2022. According to reports, the 10x <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba">NBA</a></strong> All-Star wants to join the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-clippers">Los Angeles Clippers</a></strong>.</p>



<p>In the West Coast, The Beard would team up with the likes of Paul George, Kawhi Leonard and Russell Westbrook. Thus, it makes sense that the idea of <strong>being part of a superteam </strong>persuades him.</p>



<p>Harden has struggled to perform when it mattered the most in Philly so far, but his departure would still take a toll on the team’s title aspirations. Besides, he could take another player away from the Sixers <strong>to join him in LA</strong>.</p>



<h2>Rumor: Clippers could land PJ Tucker</h2>



<p>According to NBA insider Michael Scotto of <em>HoopsHype</em>, the Los Angeles Clippers could trade for veteran forward <strong>PJ Tucker</strong>, who was also a teammate of James Harden at the Houston Rockets:</p>



<p><em>“<strong>PJ Tucker, Harden’s longtime teammate with the Rockets and Sixers, has come up in trade discussions between the 76ers and Clippers</strong>, league sources told HoopsHype. T<strong>he Clippers covet Tucker’s ability to guard multiple positions and defend the league’s top opposing scorers</strong>. Tucker is owed $11 million this upcoming year and has a $11.54 million player option for the 2024-25 season.</em></p>



<p><em>It’s worth noting Harden previously took less money to give Philadelphia added financial flexibility to pry Tucker away from the Heat in free agency in July of 2022.
