LeBron is definitely the MVP here. Like him or not (I admire him) it is somewhat amazing he finally won it for Cleveland, and under these circumstances as well.
Easily. Was the MVP last year too

That block was huge no doubt. Igoudala should have gone for the dunk, perhaps he was. That would have given GS the lead and who knows how it plays out.

Curry should have forced Irving to penetrate but hindsight is always 20/20. Just saying letting Irving shoot long-range was risky. Rather he make a two or draw a foul in the lane.

Great end to the season! Curry was pretty awful. Too much hero ball when they had plenty of time to get good looks.

What did he do wrong there?
Just can't understand some of the reasons on here why people support the Cavs while LeBron himself is the most smug guy out there, he's just a prick imo.

I take nothing away from his performance though, definitely one of the all-time best Finals performances by him in general. Well done to him for finally bringing a Championship to Cleveland but I just really dislike the guy, that's all.

Kerr should've taken a timeout as well. That was not the time to let the players figure it out Phil Jackson style.

First team back from 3-1 ever, and against the team with the best regular season ever. It's not exactly Lester winning the title, but it's massive.

Lebron being an alpha male and Kevin Durant not is the difference in the last two series against the Dubs.

So.... I remember when Cavs fans were burning James jersey. He promised, and he delivered. Hes the man.

Lebrons performance this series was nothing short of perfection, Absolutely stunning on both ends of the floor.

Im embarrassed for Klay and Steph though, Didn't even come close to turning up.

Yeah, smug prick. Brilliant performance though. That block on Iguodala was massive.

Curry blew this though. Some bad decision making by him in the game.

LeBron finished the series leading both teams in points, rebounds, assists, blocks & steals. That is completely fecking insane, I didn't think it was possible to top his performances from last year.

:lol: Curry turned into Westbrook in the 4th. LeBron is still the best. Splash brothers disappeared. 73-9 doesn't mean a thing without the ring!

:lol: Yeah I am, although in my defense probably more than 90% of the people thought this was over after the Dubs went up 3-1. Amazing achievement by LeBron and the Cavs.

You see... I have a problem with that statement. 73-9 still is excellent and is not invalidated by a finals loss.
I agree, it is still a great achievement. I was just saying it in reference to the Bulls t-shirt slogan really. Although it does take some gloss off the season of course.

90% of my own confidence faded when they went 3-1 up. :lol:

Lebron finally showed up in the last 3 games as I expected him too from the beginning. He was unplayable. Those blocks. :drool:


Kyrie was awesome. Jefferson was huge. Love and JR were good when I have been cursing them throughout.

I am delirious!
