Cleveland Cavaliers and Golden State Warriors are in, for their fourth straight NBA finals. Both the teams have a complete star-studded group, with NBA fantastic; Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, LeBron James, Jeff Green, Tristan Thompson, J. R. Smith looking ahead to give their best at the finals.
Less than 18 hours for the Game 1 of the NBA finals and already it has amassed sea of excitement. Speaking of two of the fan favorites, LeBron James and Stephen Curry, both of them are full of individual trophies, but Curry is only short by NBA finals MVP.

And it's obvious for Curry to be subjected, whether he is set to win the NBA finals MVP.
Wednesday, May 30, Curry was asked if that rings any bells before the Warriors open their fourth straight NBA finals against the Cleveland on Thursday night.
VIDEO: Stephen Curry on whether he is set to win the NBA finals MVP
“It took to the second question of my first media availability, so I’m pretty sure that narrative is going to take life, as it has in 2015,”
Curry, 30, said.
“But it doesn’t make or break my career or whatever you want to say looking back. If we win this championship and I don’t win Finals MVP, I’m going to be smiling just as wide and just as big."
“But I’m going to play aggressively, confidently, with the right energy and motivation to help my team win. And usually, when I’m in that mindset, good things happen. Whether that means it’s a Finals MVP or not, who cares. But I’m going to be playing like it for sure.”
Curry is a two-time NBA champion, a two-time MVP and a five-time All-Star, but falling short of NBA finals MVP, his supremacy will be questioned.
Might it not bother him, but he someday will have to give an answer on this.
“That’s kind of the nature of the beast being on this stage four times in a row. You’ve always got to look at what you don’t have. There is always that thing about society always looking at can you attain more and more. That’s fine. It’s part of the beast.”
