The origins of the BasedGod’s Curse go back four years ago, when Kevin Durant was struck with the curse for claiming Lil B was a “wack rapper.”
KEVIN DURANT WILL NEVER WIN THE TITLE AFTER HE SAID "LIL B" IS A WACK RAPPER,

In the past few weeks, however, the curse has gained much more notoriety, after James Harden was also hit with the curse for refusing to honor Lil B for his cooking celebration.
Some, of course, want to dismiss the curse as nonsense, but how can you argue with facts like these?

Has Kevin Durant won a title since he was cursed? No. Has he, and other members of his team suffered season ending injuries? Yes. Did James Harden and the Rockets defeat the Golden State Warriors in the Western Conference Finals? No. Did James Harden turn the ball over 13 times in the final game? Yes.
Like it or not, the curse is real, and it needs to be respected. That’s why numerous NBA teams are doing their best to make sure they too are not cursed by the BasedGod.

Seems like a pretty smart move from all these teams. Not sure what the rest of the league is waiting for, but they should get on board as soon as possible. The BasedGod’s Curse is not to be trifled with.
