If Game 1 was any indication, we’re in for a very exciting NBA Finals.
For 48 minutes, the Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers played even basketball. It wasn’t until overtime that the host Warriors clamped down on defense and outscored the Cavs 10-2 in the extra period to get the 108-100 win and take the 1-0 series lead.
Game 2 is Sunday night Oakland. Tip time is scheduled for 8 p.m. Eastern and the game will be televised by ABC.
The Warriors are the favorites again, this time by 8.5 points.
The Cavs, who will be without starting point guard Kyrie Irving for the rest of the finals (knee), are looking to avoid the 0-2 hole before the series shifts to Cleveland on Tuesday.
