Few people would have predicted the Western Conference’s Second Round matchup. LeBron James and the Lakers began the season 2-10, while the Golden State Warriors began the season 3-7. 

Despite the odds, both teams prevailed, placing sixth and seventh respectively. In the opening round, Stephen Curry and the Warriors defeated the Kings. Conversely, the Lakers defeated the Grizzlies. A picture of LeBron and Curry following an incredible Game 1 has been circulating on Twitter.

For more than a day, this picture has been making the rounds on Twitter, leading many to believe that it is a picture from a real-life incident.

FACT and DEFINITION: LeBron James refrained from kissing Stephen Curry.

No, Stephen Curry was not kissed by LeBron James. The user selected the image and used artificial intelligence to alter it. It’s a picture from Game 4 of the 2018 Finals, as far as I can tell. Defeating LeBron, the Warriors had swept the Cavaliers to claim their third championship in four years.
In the Playoffs, LeBron and Steph will square off for the fifth time, and fans are anticipating a star-studded series. Fans are going a bit crazy because they think this may be the final time they watch Steph and LeBron face off in the playoffs.
