The Houston Rockets and Brooklyn Nets shook up the NBA landscape Wednesday when they allegedly agreed to a leading four-team deal that would send James Harden to the Eastern Conference.
“Casual Wednesday,” Steph Curry said in an interview with Tim Roye on 95.7 The Game on Wednesday night.
Once the massive trade involving the Indiana Pacers and Cleveland Cavaliers is completed, Harden will reunite with former Oklahoma City Thunder teammate Kevin Durant and work with All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving – if he ever returns from his strange absence.
“Pretty crazy,” Curry told Roye. ‘I know, in this league nothing should surprise you and there have been a lot of great traders done over the last four, five, six years. But it’s just crazy to know that the landscape of the league changes immediately when that happens.
“And of course, if KD is out here with the team we had and now with Kyrie and James, it’s going to be pretty interesting to see how it goes together.”

The NBA will never disappoint, and numerous star-studded deals are offered every year. On the day the NHL opened the 2021 season, the NBA stole their thunder.
“This league is pure entertainment and this type of trade holds the interest of all time high,” Curry said.
The Warriors and Nets have a few things in common this season. Both teams have high goals, but it’s a matter of the players to reciprocate. This will determine how far one of the two teams will go in the NBA playoffs.

While Curry is focusing on helping the Warriors return to the post-season, the latest seismic shift in the NBA is catching his eye.
“It’s exciting to see it all the time, but of course as a competitor it’s stopping your antenna,” Curry said.
