This contest was tight until the fourth quarter.
The two ballclubs traded blows in the first half, and by halftime, Golden State held a slim 51-50 lead. It then outscored the Cavaliers, 22-17, in the third period to take a 73-67 advantage into the final 12 minutes.
James refused to let Cleveland go quietly, making a couple of huge three-pointers to put the Cavs in front, 80-79.
That was when Curry took over.
The MVP dominated down the stretch, weaving through the defense for layups, hitting inhuman step-back triples and making free throws to seal the deal.
The Warriors also got clutch play from Andre Iguodala, who nailed an enormous three-pointer and hit a circus state to give Golden State a seven-point lead. His paltry free-throw shooting (2-of-11 from the line) helped keep the Cavaliers in the game, but there never seemed to be any doubt that the Dubs would win once Curry got going.
Curry shot 13-of-23 overall, making seven of his 13 three-point tries.
By contrast, James went 15-of-34 and made just seven of his 19 field-goal attempts in the second half.
The Warriors shot 48 percent from the floor and went 12-of-26 from deep.
The Cavaliers made just 40 percent of their shots and hit on 12 of their 35 long-range tries.
Game 6 is on Tuesday night at Quicken Loans Arena. Catch all of the action at 9 p.m. ET on ABC.
