Q2
CLE 46 GSW 59
This first half is pretty much an barrage from the Golden State Warriors on both ends of the floor. They started this quarter by attacking inside. Steve Kerr made an interesting adjustment by putting JaVale McGee as the starting center instead of Looney and it has worked out tremendously. McGee is much more active in the pick-and-roll action and was able to get some really easy shots with set ups from Green, Curry, and Durant. Defensively, they are hounding the Cavs. LeBron started off hot in Game 1. Today, he's just held to 15 points in the first half. The only positive to take out for the Cleveland Cavaliers is that George Hill is stepping up with 12 points at the half. I thought he was more aggressive. But, the Cavs overall have to to do much better than this. They gave the Warriors a game on Thursday and it hasn't duplicated today. They are playing nonchalant basketball right now while the Warriors is playing some top notch basketball on both ends of the floor, especially bringing in a more-balanced plan of attack on offense. The 2nd half will open up shortly.
