This game NEVER should have been this close. the Cavs could barely break 95 against the Celtics... we know we are better defensively, but we didn't put the clamps on them like we should have.
Lucky for the Cavs, Lebron went for 50+ tonight to just barely lose.
OT was the Warriors lucky break here. Hopefully they come out to win in game 2-4 and not play games thinking they "got this".
edit: I just rewatched the end of the regulation again. Lebron was SOOO PISSED at JR. LOL
I feel like that was probably the 1 chance they had to steal one in Oakland. I don't think Dubs gonna let Lebron go for 51 again. No none else on the Cavs are close to good enough to fill in that gap though.
edit2:
also just rewatched the end of OT.... smh
TT got that flagrant 2.... EJECTED and then hit Dray in the face with both the ball and his hand... smdh possibly suspended for game 2.
but it gets worse. K.Love walked onto the floor... leaving the bench during the skirmish. He could be suspended for Game 2 as well. smmfh Cavs are royally fucked for game 2 in Oakland.

- Javale with the uncontested, all alone under the hoop Rimjection of his dunk. LMAO. dumbass
- JR Smith with the rebound next to the rim with 3 seconds left in a tie game, dribbles out and realized they haven't won so tries to make a last second pass to the baseline corner 3 since he already missed an open LBJ at the top of the key for a game winning shot.
With a bonus Appearance for TT
- Getting a flagrant 2 ejection and possible next game suspension in the last 2.7 seconds of OT for a game you've already lost, and possibly getting K.Love suspended for next game as well because he had your back but you had to act a fool cause you mad you lost
and this is only Game 1 of the NBA Finals.
everyone thought this would be boring. The Rivalry is Real.
Even Lebron shoved Curry near the end, he and Curry were exchanging words, Klay got involved. TT was following them around like Lebrons pitbull... he was obviously looking to get into some ****, which is what led to the incident above. Gm2 gonna bit LIT AF too. just watch
