LeBron will definitely guard Curry--he'll have to.

He won't and he doesn't. Shumpert will guard Curry, with Dellavedova taking the remaining minutes. There's no reason for Lebron to expend all his energy chasing Curry around screens, considering there is no one but Lebron healthy/skilled enough to carry and orchestrate the entire offense.

He might switch to Curry for the final minutes, like he has done with Rose/Rondo/Parker in the past, but not for the majority of the game. It's a recipe for a gassed Lebron and a dysfunctional Cavs squad.

I don't think you read my last paragraph:

"It won't be for the whole game, but don't be surprised if you see him on Curry for a few possessions. And believe it if Curry's primary defender gets in foul trouble."

Lebron always guards the best player on the other team in the final half of the 4th quarter. So that's gonna be fun!
