This weekend while he attended Dallas Mavericks’ player Harrison Barnes’ wedding, he was filmed encouraging [Steph Curry](http://time.com/4803028/steph-curry-kick-meme/) on the dance floor as Steph seemingly mocked an Instagram video that LeBron James posted of himself dancing during a workout. Either that, or he was having a little fun with the news. Here’s Steph dancing at the wedding with James’ signature fierce moves while Kyrie eggs him on. > [](https://twitter.com/SInow/status/891665733360513026) And here’s the original video from LeBron James; the two videos share striking similarities with both men flexing to “First Day Out” by Tee Grizzley. While some lighthearted fun at a wedding might seem innocuous, it’s important to remember a couple things: first, Steph’s [Golden State Warriors have defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers twice in the past three years in the NBA Finals](http://time.com/4819583/golden-state-warriors-2017-nba-champions/); second, the video that Steph was seemingly making fun of was a video that LeBron posted three days after the Cavs lost the 2017 Finals along with the hashtag #IHearEmPrayingOnMyDownfall, a line in Tee Grizzley’s track, but also something that someone might feel after they’ve lost a championship. Luckily for Steph Curry, [who also trolled LeBron by literally ripping a pair of the player’s shoes off a fan’s feet earlier this summer](http://time.com/4876693/steph-curry-shoe-video/), it’s a well-acknowledged fact that [LeBron is a master troller himself](http://time.com/4709449/cleveland-cavaliers-sandwiches/) who’s led the charge on many a petty prank directed at the Warriors and specifically at Curry in the past. How he feels about Kyrie’s co-sign of Steph’s parody, however, is yet to be seen, but in Kyrie’s defense, there’s probably no more satisfying way to troll LeBron than by egging on his arch-rival as he pokes some fun at King James. What a time to be alive. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4880602/steph-curry-does-lebron-james-moves/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4880602/steph-curry-does-lebron-james-moves/"},"headline":"Watch Steph Curry Bust a LeBron James Move on the Dancefloor","datePublished":"2017-07-31T19:27:04.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:46:01.566Z","description":"Et tu, Kyrie?","url":"https://time.com/4880602/steph-curry-does-lebron-james-moves/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Basketball","viral","Lebron James","NBA","steph curry","Sports"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltc12f404d888685d4/6988d7c8ab6d77a10f6af306/steph-curry-mocks-lebron-james-kyrie-irving.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Cady Lang","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/cady-lang/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltc12f404d888685d4/6988d7c8ab6d77a10f6af306/steph-curry-mocks-lebron-james-kyrie-irving.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Golden State Warriors v Cleveland Cavaliers","caption":"Golden State Warriors v Cleveland Cavaliers","creditText":"Jason Miller—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4880602/steph-curry-does-lebron-james-moves/","name":"Watch Steph Curry Bust a LeBron James Move on the Dancefloor"}}]}] ```
