Despite the relatively quiet rumors, many fans are still hoping for a Stephen Curry-LeBron James partnership in the future.
Is it possible? Bleacher Report has tried to find a solution, which is far, far from pleasing fans.
The rumors are there in any case, to the point where Bleacher Report has proposed an absolutely massive 11-player trade.
The Crazy Trade Suggested for Steph Curry
“Lakers receive: Steph Curry, Day’Ron Sharpe (via Nets), Wendell Moore Jr. (via Pistons), $3.9 million exception.”
“Warriors receive: Austin Reaves (via Lakers), Ben Simmons (via Nets), 2029 first round (via Lakers), 2031 first round (via Lakers)”
“Nets receive: D’Angelo Russell (via Lakers), Rui Hachimura (via Lakers), Gabe Vincent (via Lakers), Jalen Hood-Schifino (via Lakers), $23.3 million trade exception, $2 million trade exception.”

“Pistons get: Dennis Schroder (via Nets), Christian Wood (via Lakers), Clippers second round in 2025 (via Lakers), Heat second round in 2025 (via Nets), $4 million (via Lakers).”
The Angelinos get Curry in exchange for a large part of their roster, which can raise some questions.
But the biggest problem is the counterpart received by the Warriors here.
Trading Curry, the best shooter in history, to get Reaves and Simmons at the arrival? Impossible.
The franchise will never agree to negotiate for so little, and these are not two very distant first rounders that will make the difference.
Is Bleacher Report a Lakers fan??? This will never happen lmfao
Steph Curry to the Lakers? Let’s just say that if we have to propose a trade, we can probably find a much better counterpart for the Warriors.
The trade in question may be spectacular, but it will never happen as it stands.
