Warriors point guard Stephen Curry is a two-time NBA MVP and is widely regarded as one of the best ball handlers and three-point shooters in basketball history.

Whenever a player is tasked with playing defense on Curry, they are typically in for a challenge, even if that defender is all-time great LeBron James.

In the second quarter of Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinal game between the Warriors and Lakers, James was seen talking with Curry as he walked to Golden State's bench.

The interaction between the two superstar players happened with around 7:23 remaining in the first half. Curry provided some more context about what took place during a postgame media session.

"He was just joking around about having to guard me until I got all the way to the bench," Curry explained.

At one point, Curry was seen shaking his head as James talked.

The Warriors bench mostly refrained from reacting to James, although Jonathan Kuminga, Gary Payton II and Kenny Atkinson appeared to smile. 

It took maximum efforts from the Lakers star players to pull of the 117-112 win over the Warriors on Tuesday night in San Francisco.
