Golden State Warriors: 3 best highlights from 118-108 win vs. Cavs

2. The Assassin puts a move on King James

Stephen Curry is the NBA’s premier point guard, primarily known for his ability to shoot jumpers from nearly anywhere on the court. LeBron James, on the other hand, is known for his dynamic dunks, chase-down blocks and overall highflying ability.

Nothing better epitomizes their clashing styles than a Stephen Curry stepback three over The King himself.

The Cavaliers got off on the right foot to start the game, holding a 37-35 lead after the first quarter. They continued to keep the Warriors at bay, and by the middle of the second quarter, Cleveland had built up a solid two-possession lead.

Unfortunately, there’s no other team in the NBA that’s better at closing the gap than the Golden State Warriors, and there’s no one more dangerous in those situations than Steph Curry. Creating off the dribble, Curry put LeBron on his heels, stepping back for the long range rocket at exactly the right moment.
