What time is the NBA Finals game? What channel? Is it livestreamed?

The effort was there. But also had some when I got caught in the air and tried to make some skip passes and they were able to pick them off.

For the third straight year, the Golden State Warriors made short work of the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 1 of the NBA Finals.

LeBron himself had a triple-double with 29 points, 14 assists, and 11 rebounds.

Cavaliers star James, in his seventh consecutive NBA Finals, said being more physical “has always been something we talk about so we look forward to seeing what we can bring”. An interesting historical anecdote.

Wednesday, June 7: Golden State at Cleveland, 9 p.m.

If “King” James and the Cavaliers don’t take advantage at Oracle Arena, the Warriors will stretch their National Basketball Association playoff win streak record to 14 games and could become the first champions to run undefeated through the playoffs by winning Wednesday and Friday in Cleveland. “I don’t think we attacked it as well as we did previous year, which is something we may have to make some adjustments with”. Lue did something smart putting LeBron on Shaun Livingston for a while – allowing him to roam and help on defense around the floor – but he simply can’t be everywhere.

The total has stayed at the opening number of 221½, five points lower than the opening number in Game 1.

The Warriors have been such a quality unit in the Playoffs, and are unbeaten so far.

Some tug chugging could happen tonight in Game 2.

Fortunately for the Warriors, he’s back after one Finals game. At the other end, Cleveland’s first eight points were in the paint.

A second-quarter sequence in game one saw Lebron James drive the down the lane and pass it to the corner only to have Klay Thompson waiting for the ball to fall into his hands.

The first-half list of baskets for Golden State’s Kevin Durant in Game 1 of the NBA Finals went like this: layup, dunk, jumper, dunk, dunk, dunk, dunk, layup, dunk, layup. They went on to win in six.

The Warriors lost that series because Bogut – their best rim protector – got hurt in Game 5.

The biggest difference between the way The Finals began last year and the way they began this year is that last year the Warriors were the defending champions, and played like it, right out of the chute. The only make came when Kyrie Irving hit an off-balance 3-pointer while getting fouled as Thompson contested 10 of those 12 shots.

With the NBA Coach of the Year back on the bench at last, Curry and Kevin Durant tag-teamed the Warriors to within two victories of another championship.

The Cleveland Cavaliers are going back to black. And considering the deep well of talent the Cavaliers possess, it would seem unlikely the heavily favored Warriors will either, but that has become a growing secondary topic of conversation for some time.
