LeBron James' 2017 NBA Finals Proves He's Still The World's Best Basketball Player
The Golden State Warriors proved to be too much for the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2017 NBA Finals, though very little of the blame falls on LeBron James’ shoulders. The best basketball player in the world proved to be just that in defeat, putting on an individual performance for the ages.
Kevin Durant was rightfully named the series’ MVP, but James was arguably as good as anyone’s ever been in the NBA Finals. He became the first player to average a triple-double in the Finals, putting up 33.6 points, 12.0 rebounds and 10.0 assists per game.
