With one game into the NBA Finals, we’re already full of storylines. With Golden State controversially winning game 1 after OT 124-114, the Cavs have been very frustrated and feel like they got robbed and personally I agree, but they had opportunities to close. Game 1 was a very intense, close game and it seemed like the Cavs would win when they took the lead late 104-102 with a minute to go. However this is where the controversy began as KD was initially called for a charge and it got overturned into a block on LeBron giving KD 2 free throws. Now the call itself may have been right but the NBA referees broke the rules because you are only allowed to overturn the call if LeBron was inside the key which he hasn’t. Then LeBron answered with a two, Curry answered with an and one and then LeBron made a pass to George hill where he got fouled and missed one of the two free throws, but JR Smith got the rebound and had a chance to win the game, instead he stupidly dribbled the ball out thinking they had the lead and it led to OT. Warriors caught fire in Overtime and outscored the Cavs 17-7 with Klay and Green hitting big shots. LeBron dropped an incredible 51/8/8 and it wasn’t enough, Love had 21/13 and for the Warriors Steph had 29/6/9, KD 26/9/6 just on 8/22, Klay had 24 and Green dropped 13/11/9/5/3. After the game there was a scuffle that led to Tristan Thompson getting fined, also Kevin Love avoided suspension.
