Stephen Curry, only player to win Regular Season MVP and NBA Championship and get zero votes for Finals MVP.

Is there a site that shows past Finals MVP voting? Would definitely like to see some of the previous ballots

Meaningless award. Even Lebron said the main objective is to win, not collect individual awards.
Anyway Curry was doubled HARD off the Pick and Roll to the point where Mozgov and Tristan T were at times like 35 feet away from the basket. This thoroughly broke down the Cavs D and created a far more efficient Warriors offense. There's a reason why Green, Iggy, Barnes and Klay etc. had wide open shots and driving lanes to the basket throughout the series.
But nobody seems to give Curry credit for creating the Warriors offense. He probably had more hockey assists than points. Delly actually defended Curry about as well you could fighting through screens and he still got torched outside of game 2. I'm honestly shocked he didn't even receive a single FMVP vote. (Further showing how useless the award is) They gave it to Iggy basically because he defended LeBron so well and the Warriors looked a lot better with him in the starting line up. But without Curry's scoring and running, the Warriors offense where he was creating open looks for Barnes, Iggy, and Green, the Warriors would've been dead. He became content that he would be double teamed and trapped most of the night, so he spread that ball around well causing the Cavs to get out of defensive balance and the rest of his team thrived. When the game got a little close and Steph saw daylight he hit them up for two crucial threes followed by an assist for another three which effectively broke the Cavaliers back.

Pretty sure you posted this in another thread. Still the truth nonetheless.

Cavs for life
Re: Steph Curry is the only future HoFer Finals winner with 0 HoF or future HoF teammates
Klay might make the HoF.
Iggy and Draymond have outside shots as well.

I agree with this part on Curry, but the OP is back hand complimenting the defensive help Steph got.
Yes, Curry is an offensive force and he carried the Warriors in that regard but to say nobody is a future HOF is irrelevant to how they played this past season and in the playoffs. They won as a great offensive and defensive team, with great depth and coaching to boot.

NBA Finals MVP is a VERY elite award and only the very best have won at least two in their careers. Just look at the list of who's who (with at least 2 Finals MVPs)
Jordan
Kobe
Shaq
LeBron
Magic
Bird
Hakeem
Kareem
Wilt
Willis Reed
Tim Duncan
Please tell me what other award we can use that determines who are the very best in NBA history? It's VERY clear that any player that's won 2 Finals MVPs is in elite company.
