What Lebron did to Steph and Klay is underrated

[IGOTGAME]

Even as much as we talk about it, it's still not enough. He broke both of them, he took their souls. They started talking shit about the Bron Bron and then he came out like a basketball God and made them run to the locker room and cry. Klay wouldn't even look at Lebron after the game to shake hands, that "man" ran away and cried on the floor. He broke that team, it was so bad they had to get another broken man to help them.

Imo other superstars besides Westbrook are scared of this man now, they might have been before but I'm sure of it now.

He completely mindfcked them.. Kyrie holds ownership over all those clowns at the Olympics right now too.. would be ultra embarrassing for them if Bron was there. He'd probably treat them like rooks, he'd play it cool, but they'd be ashamed knowing thats how he views them.

Steph Curry 2015 Finals Stats

26/5/6/2/ 59% TS


Perhaps the most critical segment of this series came at the end of the third quarter of Game 4, Cleveland cutting the Warriors lead to three. The Q was rocking. The Finals hung in the balance.

Curry calmly called for the ball, shook a defender and drained a three, pushing Golden State to a six-point lead. In a reversal of roles, a gassed LeBron tried to answer with a three of his own at the buzzer, only to miss badly. When James went to the bench to rest at the start of the fourth quarter, the Warriors seized control of the game and the Finals.

Curry finished with 22 that night. He then dropped 37, including 17 in the fourth quarter, in Game 5. On Tuesday, he dropped a couple of massive threes to help stem a fourth-quarter Cleveland surge, then when double-teamed, hit a wide-open Klay Thompson for another.

[i]Not only did Curry average an MVP-like 26 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals in 43 minutes per game, but as Kerr told his point guard, sometimes a point guard has to put his own game now in favor of managing the game for his teammates.

That is what Curry relayed when he said in the postgame press conference, "The Finals are not that different from normal NBA games. It's just the spotlight is different, and soar are the expectations. When you have an average game, you find out in the Finals that people were expecting more. But really, that stuff doesn't matter. It's all about winning. That's what I've learned. I just need to impact games, be myself every other night, do other things to help my team win and be OK with that. Manage the game from a point-guard standpoint, find a way to win and that's what we did

warriorfan caught some of that 3ball syndrome

LeBron after this finals should be considered GOAT. No one ever did something like this :applause: :bowdown: :pimp:

[Sakkreth]

It was brutal, he just abused them. They got broken mentally.

[diamenz]

don't forget about kyrie's superstar play as well as thompson's contributions in key moments.

:bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

never seen one player mentally, physically, psychologically, and emotionally destory a player/team in my life than what LeBron did to the Golden State Asterisks/Chokery.

[red1]

Kyrie embarrassed curry too. I have no doubt that he thinks curry is overrated and that he wants to take his lunch money when he sees him.

Klay: "NBA is a man's league." Proceeds to get wrecked :oldlol:

You can't make this shit up :roll:

Most 4th Quarter Points during the Finals

1995 Shaquille O'Neal 11.5
2000 Shaquille O'Neal 11.5 (61.1% TS)
2015 Stephen Curry 10.8 (75.1% TS)
1997 Michael Jordan 10.7 (55.1% TS)
1998 Michael Jordan 10.6 (50.6% TS)
2011 Dirk Nowitzki 10.3 (68.0% TS)
1993 Michael Jordan 10.3

2015 Steph Curry had one of the most clutch performance in NBA history. The only player to score more 4th Quarter Finals points than Steph Curry was Shaquille Oneal, and he didn't even score one point more than Curry while Curry scored 14% more efficiently than Shaquille


In the 2016 Finals he was not able to play as well as he did in 2015

What happened in 2016 that didn't happen in 2015? The major MCL injury

Here is a clip of healthy Curry showcasing his excellent lateral quickness and change of direction

These type of plays were routine for Curry before the MCL injury


The time table for return of an MCL sprain is 2 to 4 weeks.

(Keep in mind that healing timetable is for every day activity, nothing more strenuous than walking up one flight of stairs, NOT playing professional basketball)

Stephen Curry returned from the injury after only 2 weeks because the Warriors were struggling against Portland without him.

Stephen Curry re-aggravated his knee injury by coming back too early and then playing 40+ minutes of playoff basketball plus overtime in his record setting performance against Portland.


Therefore we can conclude that Curry's MCL injury was the differentiating factor which lowered Curry's production
