I admit I am a hater. But Lebron's performance in this series made me speechless. Mad respect. Clutch play after clutch play. Top 3 in the history for sure. Curry is not even close. Lebron best player in the NBA by a mile.
Happy for Lebron...so many haters. Great game, with history made. It's amazing what a great player can accomplish when all his teammates are relatively healthy eh?

Even if he had choked, I had no doubt that he would have played a near perfect game. You could see that he was tired and could barely move. All is forgiven, never had a bone to pick though.
More $$$ to charity than multiple generations of your entire extended family could ever think to donate combined.
That Lebron block. Holy Jesus. I mean we've seen those before. Hakeem on for Strickland. Reggie Miller getting chased down. Etc. Never in my 25 years of watching basketball have I seen as important, as timely and as holy shot out of nowhere a chase down block. I mean you weren't even considering it. You were ready to see the Warriors up two. And just out of freaking nowhere. It's fitting that the pinnacle moment, the highlight photo of the game, the series, the year and perhaps, crazy as it may sound, Lebron's career, is a defensive play. I love Hardens game. And think he can be number one on a championship team (see Curry, Dirk and others) but to be on that Mt Rushmore. Got to play the defense too. Got to man up and ball out both ends of the court. F'ing amazing. Lebron is clearly the best SF of all time. He's close to MJ now. Not there but close. MJ, Kareem and Lebron undisputed top three.
Top 5 player of all time. 3 time finals MVP and champ. Brought back a title for Cleveland down 3-1 against one of the greatest teams of all time
