LeBron James: 'Game five is not that big'

James: 'Game five is not that big'

Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James believes that he has played in bigger matches than game five of his side's NBA Finals series against the Golden State Warriors promises to be.

The series hangs in the balance at 2-2 after the Warriors recorded a 103-82 victory in game four at Quicken Loans Arena.

However, the 30-year-old feels that the biggest came of his career came in 2012 when he was at the Miami Heat and produced a 45-point display to beat the Boston Celtics in game six of the Eastern Conference Finals, to tie the series at 3-3 before the Heat won the NBA Championship.

He told reporters: "Game five at Golden State is not that big when it comes to going to Boston and you lose multiple times in that arena, and the franchise that I was with at the time had never won a playoff game in Boston.

"Now that's pretty challenging. So I've been through a little bit in my pretty cool career."

Game five of the series takes place on Sunday at Oracle Arena.
