Q4:
CLE 89 GSW 104
What a complete team effort from the Warriors to take game 1 of finals. The Warriors' bench came alive in the 4th quarter and closed the book on the Cavs. The Cavs fought hard, made the necessary adjustments in the 2nd half to cut the deficit, but the Dubs were just too good offensively and defensively to draw first blood. Stay tuned for the full recap.
Q3:
CLE 68 GSW 74
Whew, what a quarter! Both teams exchanged buckets during the final stretch of the third quarter. It looks like the Cavs did their due diligence in making adjustments during the half. They started to tighten up on defense and the execution was a lot better on offense. Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love were aggressive during to bring the Cavs back from an early 14 point deficit. It's been a good game 1 of this rematch so far with the Warriors having a six point advantage.
Q2:
CLE 43 GSW 52
The bench play of Golden State is stepping up big time this game. Leandro Barbosa is hitting shots, Shaun Livingston is hitting shots and the Warriors are looking unstoppable right now. The Cavs, aside from LeBron James, are having a tough time to figure out the Warriors as the defensive of the Dubs is putting the pressure on Cleveland, despite a small nine point advantage. Onto the halftime report.
Q1:
CLE 24 GSW 28
Good pace on both sides of the ball for both teams. to start at the first quarter. The Cavs drew first blood with a 3-point bucket by Kevin Love and the Warriors have responded. It's a game of runs as every time the Warriors seem they have the upper hand, the Cavs manage to respond to keep within striking distance. Early on the Warriors implemented some intimidation on the Cavs defensively, forcing two 24 shot clock violations, but the Cavs recovered well to trim the deficit at four points. We are seeing a good chess match between the coaches, Steve Kerr and Tyronn Lue in terms of adjustments to each team's personnel on the floor.
