And another thing I learned is U can not predict/assumes the scores that easily... Those guys are professionals. We counted Cavs OUT but they bounce back and we might see this series to game 7

LeBron got East on his Pocket.. Hata akienda Knicks bado ataingia tu finals. He is unstoppable..
 
When an NBA Finals series is tied 1-1, the Game 3 winner goes on to win the series 84 percent of the time.

The NBA announced the referees for Game 2 of the Finals between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Golden State Warriors missed four calls in overtime.
A standard officiating report for the last two minutes of regulation and overtime shows all of the referees' decisions in the Cavs' 95-93 victory to level the series. The league determined all of the calls made during the last portion of regulation were correct.
In overtime, however, the mistakes started immediately as officials should have called Draymond Green for a foul on the opening tip.
With one minute, 37 seconds left in the extra period, the referees decided to let play continue as LeBron James attacked the rim against Andre Iguodala. The league determined the officials should have called traveling on James, who committed a shot-clock violation, or a shooting foul on Iguodala.
Finally, there was another jump ball with 45 seconds left. Green once again deserved a foul for preventing James from leaping for the tip. Instead, the Cavaliers superstar ended up catching the ball after tipping it, which resulted in a Golden State possession.

As Joe Davidson of the Sacramento Bee pointed out during Game 2, the officiating was a major issue throughout, not just in overtime:

Referees aren't up to the task in Game 2. Botched a ton already. Only referees will defend them, tho

Ultimately, the biggest thing the NBA report shows is that Cleveland fans would have held a legitimate gripe if their team didn't pull out the victory. Three of the four key calls that officials missed down the stretch went against the Cavaliers.

It's always difficult to predict how officiating may change after these types of errors are publicly acknowledged. It's doubtful things will suddenly swing greatly in the Cavs' favor, but it would be a surprise if Green gets away with his tricky jump-ball tactics.

The NBA has to hope the referees are a far smaller part of the overall story in Game 3. The series resumes from Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland on Tuesday night.

 
Quarter 1 over, Curry is 1/5 FG%.

Delly is doing it again.
 
...and when you minimise Curry's production then it's very difficult for GSW to get a win.

Imagine if Love and Kyrie were available, but it does look good for CAVS. Although they're missing 2 of their key players they still can do this in 5 or 6 games.

Delly is annoying as hell.....hahahaaa.

I mean, he is all over Steph like a baby's rash.

I bet he (Steph) is not liking it one bit.

I hope we CAVs take this game today.

If that happens and Delly keeps it healthy, odds will shift to favor CAVs.

I remember LBJ said he is not an underdog coming to this series, looks like he was right.

Lets keep watching the Finals!

I think they could have played offensively which would have favored GSW.

As I look at it, TT and Delly are doing so great at D.
