Magic Johnson Thinks Stephen Curry Should Be Finals MVP Even If The Warriors Lose To The Celtics: "He's Been Dominant In The First 4 Games."

Stephen Curry has been spectacular in these NBA Finals, and there's no doubt that he has been the best player in the series thus far. In the 2022 NBA Finals, Stephen Curry has averaged 34.3 PPG, 6.3 RPG, and 3.8 APG.

Magic Johnson is widely considered to be the greatest point guard of all time, and there's no doubt that he is someone who often provides insightful opinions on the happenings in the NBA. Recently, Magic Johnson claimed that Stephen Curry should be the Finals MVP no matter who wins the series, as he has been absolutely dominant throughout the first 4 games of the Finals.

I think no matter who wins the Golden State vs. Boston series, Steph Curry should be the MVP because he’s been dominant in the first four games!

We haven't seen a player from the losing team win the Finals MVP for a long time, not since Jerry West managed to win the Finals MVP award in 1969. However, it is certainly possible, and Stephen Curry's numbers suggest that it could happen again.

With that being said, Stephen Curry obviously would prefer to win the award while also helping his team win the series. The Golden State Warriors did regain home-court advantage after Game 4, and perhaps they can use that to their advantage.

Stephen Curry has been absolutely dominant for the Golden State Warriors, but he'll need some help offensively if they are to win the NBA Finals. No player has won without help, and as Klay Thompson aptly said, it seems ridiculous to ask Stephen Curry to score 43 points every game as he did in Game 4.

Hopefully, we see Stephen Curry lead the Golden State Warriors to victory. He will need to give them everything he can offensively to do so, and we'll see if he is able to do so.

Video Of How 'Fake Klay Thompson' Got Past The Warriors Security And Gets Shots On The Court

The Golden State Warriors ended up winning Game 5 of the 2022 NBA Finals against the Boston Celtics and took a 3-2 lead in the series. It feels certain that the Dubs will win this series and win their fourth NBA Championship in the last eight years. While winning the finals will mean a lot for every player on the Dubs' roster, it will certainly mean more for Klay Thompson. Klay was sidelined due to injuries over the last two seasons and made a comeback this season. Finishing off the season with a ring will certainly be the cherry on top for him. Speaking of Klay Thompson, an incident took place around a certain lookalike of the Warriors' sharpshooter. We are sure you must remember the 'Fake Klay Thompson' who got famous a few years ago. Prior to Game 5 of the series, Fake Klay snuck into the Chase Center and got shots up before the matchup began. NBA fans found this hilarious, but it seems like the Warriors organization didn't. He was handed a lifetime ban from th...

The Nine Circles of Hell: A ’21-22 Los Angeles Lakers Eulogy

“MIDWAY upon the journey of our life I found myself within a forest dark, For the straightforward pathway had been lost.” – Dante Alighieri/Every Lakers fan The 2021-22 Lakers are officially dead. It was a merciful end to a team that has been on life support since going 0-6 in the preseason. But I’m not here to spit on the grave of the departed. Rather, I offer empathy. I wholeheartedly volunteer to play the role of Virgil and help mourning Lakers fans navigate their way through the nine circles of hell. A fair warning before proceeding: “Abandon all hopes ye who enter here.” First Circle: Limbo The first circle is home to the virtuous sportswriters and podcasters. This is not a place of punishment so much as regret. Say hello to Bill Simmons, Jackie MacMullan, Zach Lowe, Marc Stein, and a bunch of lesser souls who all drank too much of the Lakers’ bubble Kool-Aid and were too reverent of the false god-king LeBron James. They ignored the divine revelations that have been made kno...

Kyrie Irving's 50-point outburst reminds everyone what he can do and takes Nets above .500

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving reminded everyone just how lethal of a scorer he is on Tuesday night when he dropped 50 points in a win over the Charlotte Hornets. Irving's offensive outburst couldn't come at a more perfect time for the Nets, who had previously lost the last four games, and were 3-17 in their last 20 contests leading into tonight. From the opening tip of the game, Irving got whatever he wanted against a porous Charlotte defense that ranks 20th in the league in defensive rating. But the second half of the game, with the Nets already ahead 69-43 behind Irving's 20 points in the first half, is where he did a bulk of his damage to ensure the Hornets couldn't come back in the game. Irving went 5-of-7 from downtown and racked up 30 of his 50 points in the final two frames of action. "You just wanna really put your stamp on a game early and then be able to play the game the right way," Irving said after his stellar performance. "And that'...
