LeBron James delivered back-to-back impressive performances for Team USA at the 2024 Paris Olympics, leading the team to clinch their 5th straight gold medal for the country.
The 39-year-old, who recently shared a unique handshake with his kids at courtside, put in tremendous effort, earning him the MVP award at the conclusion of the tournament.
However, despite his outstanding performance, there are questions about whether he truly deserved the MVP award.
Some NBA analysts and fans have begun to argue that Stephen Curry, often considered one of the greatest shooters in NBA history, is the more deserving MVP for the 2024 Olympics.
During a recent episode of Stephen A. Smith’s show, the host mentioned that Curry was a more deserving player for the award.
NBA analysts believe that Curry delivered some remarkable performances in the semifinals and finals of the 2024 Olympics, which helped the team in critical moments of the game.
“I thought Steph Curry deserved the MVP… Not because LeBron [James] wasn’t great because he was. But when you steal pivotal moments like that to secure gold in two thrillers, Serbia & then France, you deserve the MVP.” Smith said.
Smith mentioned that Curry displayed outstanding skills against Serbia and France in the Semifinals and Finals, respectively. He asserted that despite James being a great player, Curry deserved the MVP.
Analyzing James and Curry’s Performances in the Final Two Games of the 2024 Paris Olympics
During the final two games of the 2024 Olympics, Curry demonstrated why he is renowned as the greatest shooter in NBA history.
The four-time NBA champion displayed remarkable talent on the court against Serbia, finishing the game with 36 points, two assists, and eight rebounds, while James scored 16 points, ten assists, and 12 rebounds.
In the gold medal game against France, Curry wowed the crowd with his back-to-back three-pointers. The two-time NBA MVP scored 24 points, five assists, and one rebound, while James scored 14 points, ten assists, and six rebounds.
While many analysts are still debating the worthiness of both stars, James and Curry seem unbothered and are enjoying their victory.
