Who do you trust more in this series: LeBron James or Stephen Curry?

Michael Saenz, Editor: I don’t think there’s a wrong answer to this question, but I’ll say LeBron James. He’s been here seven times and was unbelievable last year. He averaged 36 points, 13 rebounds and nine assists in last year’s Finals against the Warriors.

Even though Stephen Curry is the first unanimous NBA MVP in history, give me LeBron.

William Giambertone, Writer: Stephen Curry can make any shot that you ask of him and right now he is on fire, so I think that you trust him more right now.

Eleazar Gonzales, Writer: I trust LeBron James in this particular series against GSW. We haven’t seen his monstrous numbers in the playoffs, so I know he’ll unleash everything he has against Steph and company. Yes, Steph is a great shooter but LeBron is still prime for taking over games when the need for it calls.

Christina Merrion, Writer:  Whomever Young Metro trusts haha, Steph Curry…the man pulls up from half court because he wants to, so there’s that.

John Armstrong, Writer: I’d have to say I trust LeBron James more. He’s got a more proven, tenured track record and brings more to the table in terms of what he does for his team. This is not a shot at Stephen Curry, however, so I’d give LeBron a 60-40 edge.

Gabriel Gonzalez, Writer: I have to go with LeBron James. In the series with the Thunder, Curry has found himself contained at times and there’s no doubt the Cavs will be looking slow him down. James hasn’t had such an issue yet.

Nathan Beighle, Writer: LeBron James – proven his trust in six straight finals.

Nikolas Donadic, Writer: LeBron James.

Jay Rosales, Writer: In James We Trust. Maybe he’s only 70 percent healthy, or maybe I don’t trust a 12-year-old, but James is the easy answer. James’ numbers from regular season to playoffs have increased in major categories, such as points, FG%, PER, TS%, ORtg. Curry’s stats have gone in the opposite direction in those same areas.
