So why do you think Steph is better in big games than LeBron? Curry was in the same position LeBron was in best player on the better team throughout this whole postseason. In fact Curry has never really been in a pressure cooker of a game where the highest stakes are on the line and you have to win or go home. None that we got a game left at the crib you have to do it this game.

Unless I recall Game 7 vs the Clippers last year where Steph had some pretty bad TO's in the 4th in that game.
Steph hasn't had any of those Lebron shrinking moments in games. Also, he wants the ball in the clutch, Lebron is perfectly fine letting someone else miss a shot and lose a game. That game at Memphis when they were down 2-1 was a huge game, almost a must win, and he stepped up huge. I don't think Lebron is an all-time choke artist but when I'm seeing people say. "Steph is gonna choke", I don't get how they trust Lebron more than him when we've seen Lebron, just last year, cramp and quit in finals games.

This is the first year where Lebron is the Lone Ranger with pressure to get it done in the finals. They aren't Vegas favorites but I'm seeing plenty of basketball minds picking him and the Cavs to win, some saying easily. I want to see his approach come game 1.

I give him all the credit in the world for that game 7 against SA in 2013. He made huge shots and closed it out. the other series/examples he was clearly the best player on the better team so he did more or less what he should have done. I just think when it comes to it, he shrinks just as much as he comes through.

This is simply incorrect. He's had one bad moment/series in the Finals against Dallas, where you can objectively say the moment was too big for him. That's it.

Moment too big for him? Lol what? That's an excuse?

Oh I guess last year's pitiful finals performance, the worst in the history of the NBA, was too big for him as well. You're right.

All the experts and analysts i've listened to are all picking GSW. I've never seen people overwhelmingly pick against Lebron like this since his first time in the Finals.

Happy to see that King James got another ring. Yeah I'm just going to go and say the Cavs are going to take it.

I also think this Cav team is better than the Miami Heat team LeBron was on:yeshrug:

wtf is the Warriors concussion protocol? I bet Steph had one too

Steph didnt bleed from his ear and didnt end up being woozy and throwing up later. Klay's was much worse. I doubt he will miss any games though.
