Curry too hot for LeBron as MVP shotmaker sizzles in NBA Finals (AFP)

Stephen Curry finally displayed the shotmaking skills that made him this season's NBA Most Valuable Player and as a result the Golden State Warriors are on the brink of ending a 40-year title drought. Curry produced his finest performance of his first NBA Finals on Sunday, scoring 37 points to power the Warriors over the Cleveland Cavaliers 104-91 as Golden State seized a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven championship series. The Warriors can claim their first crown since 1975 by winning game six Tuesday in Cleveland.
