Stephen Curry promised to deliver heat at the ESPYs, and he did just that to start his hosting gig. Unfortunately for Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James, he's on the receiving end of the Golden State Warriors star's hilarious trolling.

Early in the show, Curry shared how he is just the second NBA player to host the said awards ceremony, following LeBron who did it in 2007. However, he really had to remind everyone that when James hosted it, he was coming off an NBA Finals loss.

Of course it is still fresh in everyone's mind what Curry and his Warriors accomplished last June of 2022.

“I'm the second NBA player to host this award show. LeBron James hosted this show back in 2007 after losing the NBA Finals. So yes… yes, this feels better,” Curry joked, via ClutchPoints Twitter.

Hey, Stephen Curry is not lying. It's just facts, though it could be quite painful for LeBron James to remember his first NBA Finals and the bitter defeat that came with the Spurs sweep.

Fans and haters alike have to give it to Curry, however. He certainly earned the right to talk smack and troll others about winning rings, especially after all the criticisms and hate he and the Warriors have received over the past two years.

If there is one “comforting” fact for LeBron, it's that he's not the only one receiving trash talk from Curry. Not even NFL legend and Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Tom Brady could escape the trolling from Steph.
