LOS ANGELES (AP) — LeBron James and Steph Curry are used to meeting in the spring with an NBA championship up for grabs. James and the seventh-seeded Los Angeles Lakers host Curry’s eighth-seeded Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night in a Western Conference play-in tournament game. This will be the 23rd postseason game between James and Curry. Golden State won their first meeting 115-113 on the Lakers’ floor on Jan. 18 when it rallied from a 14-point, fourth-quarter deficit. Golden State had to beat Memphis in Sunday’s regular-season finale to secure the play-in No.
