NBA Finals Game 2

Just when we were thinking that its over, Cleveland shocked us all by stealing game 2.

The Cavaliers almost won Game 1, losing a tough one in overtime, and then walking into Game 2 without Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love. Going up against the NBA's best home team, where Golden State is nearly unbeatable.

Walks in the legendary Lebron James. The best player in the world went for 39 points, 16 rebounds, and 11 assist, as the Cleveland Cavaliers won this game in overtime, 95-93, to even up the series 1-1 as the series moves the Cleveland.

At this point there isn't much you can say about Lebron James. His play speaks for itself. Lebron elevates the level of his teammates, no matter who his teammates are. Game 1, James posted 44 points, 8 boards, and 6 assist that was amazing. But in Game 2, with James basically playing point guard on offense, making pinpoint passes to find open teammates, this triple double was more impressive. Micheal Jordan is the best winner we have ever seen, but Lebron James is the best all around basketball player we have seen.

Then you have the league MVP Stephen Curry, normally he is the flicking in jump shots night in and night out but on this night this did not go Curry's way. Curry did make a big 3 pointer with 2:45 remaining in regulation to cut the Cavs lead to six, but Curry finished 5-23 from the field, including 2-15 from 3 point land. With the Warriors needing a bucket at the end of OT, Curry went one on one with Matthew Dellavedova and shot an air ball,  then turned the ball over instead of getting a final shot.

With the series even and headed to Cleveland, Golden State still has the upper hand. With 3:15 left in regulation, the Cavs had a 83-72 lead. They then began to fall apart.  Part of that was the Warriors fouling Tristan Thompson, part of the fall apart was the mental errors (JR Smith) and part of that was James either not making shots or not getting to the line. The Warriors, came back, tied it and took it to overtime. You don't get many chances like this against the Warriors, and with the series up for grabs, the Cavs have to close out games if they want to close out this series.
