'I'm confident because I'm the best player in the world' - LeBron

Tuesday, June 16 2015 by SNTV
  • Intro:

    Post-game reaction after the Golden State Warriors defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers 104-91 on Sunday (14th June), to take a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven NBA Finals.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English): LeBron James, Cleveland Cavaliers Forward:

    "I thought he was great. You tip your hat off to a guy like that. He made seven threes. I don't know, were any of them not contested, hand in his face, falling, stepback off the dribble? I'm okay with that. We're okay with that. I mean, you tip your hat to a guy who makes shots like that, and he's the guy that can do it in our league. He's the best shooter in our league. But that's not why we lost. We gave up 18 fast breakpoints. We gave up 15 second-chance points. Steph was special, obviously, but him hitting those stepback threes is not why we lost the game."

    SOUNDBITE (English): LeBron James, Cleveland Cavaliers Forward:

    Q: LeBron, you seem to be playing a lot more comfortable this Finals series. There was a play I think you had a behind-the-back lay-up where you went up and you're making crazy threes. Do you feel a lot less pressure this Finals run just because you are undermanned and you had some injuries as opposed to previous years? "No. No, I feel confident because I'm the best player in the world. It's that simple."

    SOUNDBITE (English): LeBron James, Cleveland Cavaliers Forward:

    "We don't want them celebrating at all, no matter if it's on our home floor or their home floor. We've come this far, and we've been very good at home. We have to understand why we weren't good in Game 4. We had a lack of energy. We had a lack of effort in a lot of areas in Game 4, and we can't repeat that or they'll raise the trophy for sure."
