According to NBA.com/Stats, James has had 26 possessions with Curry as his primary defender in the first three games of the Finals, almost nine per game. These possessions have come primarily toward the end of games, when James methodically slows the offense, points at Curry’s man, and calls for a screen, at which point the Warriors’ switching defense demands Curry switch onto James. In the 26 times this has happened,James has zero points. He’s taken five shots, missing all five, and he’s never been fouled in the act of shooting. This from a player averaging 37.7 points in the Finals—but, apparently, zero against Golden State’s worst defender.

This is a dull game. No one wants to be there except Javelle.
― EZ Snappin, Saturday, 9 June 2018 02:26 (five years ago) link
I want the Finals MVP to go to McGee for exactly that reason.

No need to watch anymore of this. See you next year bball. Go bulls.

Curry going for the fmvp but not sure it’s gonna be enough. Kd great teammate for getting him going this game you could tell he was hunting him in the first Half.

jvg should use this time to advocate for making dunks count for 3

Kd stunk in game one but his numbers were ok-ish. Curry stunk last game shooting it and his numbers looked bad. I think Kd gets it again. Curry shoulda got it in 2015 tho.
― they call me melo gelo (Spottie), Saturday, 9 June 2018 03:17 (five years ago) link
