Anyone who doesn't say Lebron for this is lying to themselves.

Curry has been through hell and back to get to the finals. What about Lebron?

Well you could probably say the opposite for Lebron.


He left Cleveland for Miami and then went back.

Yeah, Lebron has had an easy time, losing Love, having Kyrie hobbled and missing time, having J.R. Smith miss a couple of games, and having Shumpert having some injury issues.  That's without getting into Lebron's bump, bruises, and sprains.

Lebron made his path look easier than it was.  He went through a 60-win team, and an experienced Bulls team with Jimmy Butler playing like an MVP.

It's not like Curry hasn't had some luck.  His team is basically injury free, and has been all season.  He went through the Pelicans (Jrue Holiday and Ryan Anderson recovering from injury), the Grizzlies (first Mike Conley and then Tony Allen injured), and the Rockets (no excuses for them, other than DoMo).

I like Curry a lot. And even though I recognize LeBron's greatness as a player, I still kinda dislike him.

All that said, I feel like this is a no-brainer. Sure Curry's fun to watch, but LeBron is head-and-shoulders the best player in the world, with or without HGH. As Roy said, it's about titles, and LeBron gives you the best chance at those.

How in the world has Curry's path to the Finals been considerably more difficult than LeBron's?

TP! LeBron left sports hell (CLE) for heat hell (MIA, and no pun intended), then CHOSE to go back to sports hell.

I don't know he's only taken his 5th team to the finals in as many years and is only dominant in every aspect of the game.

Out of the weak east.  His Heat or Cavs play the Spurs or GSW and he might of not made the finals  5 years in a row

LeBron was swept in his first Finals appearance after carrying one of the worst rosters to ever make it there singlehandedly.

Comparatively speaking, Curry's career has been giftwrapped. Love him as a player, but there's really no comparison there.
