LeBron James: Warriors coach Steve Kerr makes Cavs roster claim
LeBron James is not the Cavs' only threat, although he's their biggest, says Steve Kerr
That’s the word from Warriors coach Steve Kerr going into Game 1 of the NBA Finals (Friday, 2am UK time).
Much of the focus is on how Golden State stop four-time MVP James - who has been in electric form throughout the post-season.
The 33-year-old has averaged 34 points, added to 9.2 rebounds and 8.8 assists, across 17 games to help the Cavs reach an unlikely fourth straight Finals.
Cleveland’s hopes of winning the Eastern Conference again were written off by almost everyone after a huge roster change-up in February left them with a host of role players with little or no playoff experience.
