2015 NBA FINALS: Game 6 Golden State Warriors vs. Cleveland Cavaliers Q-by-Q Reaction

Q4:

Score: GS 105 CLE 97

A lot of anxiety down the final minutes. If you remember two years ago, Spurs were on the verge of winning a title, but the Heat lead by LeBron James came back and won it in OT. Almost the same story here, but they just fell short and the Warriors hit critical free throws to close it out. Both teams deserved a title, both cities deserved a title, but in the end the Warriors dream season closes out the right way with a championship. Stay tuned for the full recap after the trophy presentation.

Q3:

Score: GS 73 CLE 61

When the Warriors have a deep team, they have a DEEP team. They pretty much got back to the way they were playing in the 1st quarter, but the bench stepped up big time. Shaun Livingston is stepping up, Festus Ezeli is stepping up. Last game, it was Leandro Barbosa stepping up the scoring and then this game, it was both Livingston and Ezeli. The depth is showing and completely wearing out the Cavs' short-handed roster as the 4th quarter starts in what could be the final quarter of the Cavs' season.

Q2:

Score: GS 45 CLE 43

Wow, a tale of two quarters as the first half comes to an end. The Warriors came out hot in the 1st quarter, but they have struggled in this quarter. The Cavs, despite the turnovers, they are battling out there, clamping this Warriors defense and drawing fouls. Most of their points this quarter came from the free throw line and they needed a lot of it as they made and missed some. The quarter finished off a Tristan Thompson put back dunk and maybe just maybe, it could be enough to turn the momentum for the Cavs. Onto the halftime report.

Q1:

Score: GS 28 CLE 15

Talk about a nightmarish start offensively for the Cavaliers! 6 turnovers that quarter, 3 of them were due to 24 second violations. Just bad awareness for the Cavs and it doesn't help that most of their offensive sets are pretty ugly out there. Meanwhile, the Warriors are just firing on all cylinders. They missed a couple of jump shots and this lead would've extended by a big margin. So far, the Warriors are doing it on both sides of the ball with their defense and their fast paced, up tempo offense and you can tell they're on a mission to close this series out.
