If Warriors win, it has to be Green MVP, right? I don't think you can justifiably give it to Curry. He's been pretty nonexistent for large stretches of this series.

It should be LeBron.

Naw, I don't like that. It should ALWAYS go to the winning team, no matter what a person on the losing team did.

Great game, who is going to step up late in the 4th? I think Irving will who will on Warriors? Can Curry do anything else on offense except throw up 3's?

Time for LeBron to take over. As for Curry that's all he's got in this series unfortunately.

When I see players like Richard Jefferson, Varajao, and Livingston out there it gives me way more hope for the Celtics


Problem is those teams have  players with top 5 talent. Who on the Celts as top 5 talent? Easy to get the Jefferson's Livingston's ect.... not so much for the Curry's, James, Irving, Thompson ect..

I'd give it to Green if they win.  I'm worried they will feel compelled to give it to Lebron no matter what.

I don't give it to losers.

Lebron is due for beast mode in this game.  4th quarter, big man.  Bring it.
Could say the same for Curry.

I agree with that. If GS wins, I'm sure they will also take into account that they would be handing out the MVP trophy in GS to the opposing player if they give it to Lebron. It shouldn't be a factor, but it will be.

I don't think so. You can tell which games he's locked in and can take over at any time. The last two games were like that, but he's largely defaulted a lot of times tonight.

If Lebron wants to be mentioned with Jordan, Bird ect.. then this is when he should take over the game and win it. If not I don't want to hear about him mentioned with those players.

I think both are very well deserving. Missing Green in game 5 was definitely huge for the Warriors, now in game 7, he is showing that again!

LeBron also been playing out of his mind, him and Irving was the reason they won game 5 but LeBron is every reason why they are still in this series and of course big reason they won game 6.

Either of the two I will not be surprised

Good Lord these effing refs.. 12-19 fouls. Thompson is ridiculously physical on his boards, yet they call crap like that.

Kevin Love is playing like he is capable of. Without dealing with Lebron he could get back to the player he once was on another team.
