Patrick Beverley is making headlines again after he spoke about a rather contentious subject in comparing Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James to Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warriors. Unsurprisingly, not everyone was happy about all this talk. Even Beverley's ESPN co-host, Brian Windhorst, could not help but laugh at the idea of LeBron and Curry being compared at face value.

Windy got brutally honest in expressing his belief that the Lakers talisman would himself have a good laugh about this subject. According to the ESPN broadcaster, there's just no way we should be comparing LeBron with Curry:

“I'm just imagingin if LeBron were here right now and had a glass of wine in him, hearing this conversation, the things that he would say would be unbelievable,” Windhorst said on Friday's episode of Get Up. “… LeBron James would laugh at the concept that they're being compared like this.”

Beverley and Vince Carter quickly took exception to Windhorst's statement. They made it abundantly clear that they are not comparing Steph Curry to the Lakers superstar. They are merely saying that in terms of their achievements — especially if Curry leads the Warriors to another title this season — Steph has done enough to be in the same conversation as LeBron.
