Cleveland Cavaliers find rhythm from three-point range in NBA Finals

The Warriors know better than any team that the Cavaliers don't fold, that they must be folded.

The Warriors, who beat Cleveland in the 2015 Finals only to lose to them past year after squandering a 3-1 series lead, went a record-setting 15-1 in the playoffs, their only loss coming in Game Four of the best-of-seven championship.

"I think every offensive rebound they got, they might have hit a three", Durant said. Got to be physical.

"There's going to be a lot of teams that's trying to figure out ways to put personnel together to try and match that if they're able to actually face them in the playoff series, both Eastern Conference and Western Conference", LeBron said. "LeBron and Kyrie I've never seen nothing like them two before".

But here's the issue: In Game 4 with a chance to close the Cavaliers out on the road, win his second National Basketball Association title and preserve the Warriors undefeated playoff run, Curry faltered for the first time this post-season. That can't happen again. I felt like RJ [Richard Jefferson] was talkin' junk the whole series, then the media, J.R. [Smith] said some things. I expect us to come out with a level of focus that we have had this entire series, minus Game 4.

"We know that champions don't die".

LeBron James did everything humanly possible to help the Cleveland Cavaliers defend their NBA title, including becoming the first player ever to average a triple-double in NBA Finals history. How Cleveland let it slip away on the Cavs homecourt is unforgiveable.

Game 5 is scheduled at the Oracle Arena in Oakland this morning (Manila time) and if the Cavaliers win, that would be a miracle. They were eight-point favorites despite having to play without suspended forward Draymond Green.

"If you don't do something well, they will make you pay for it, so we have to be 20 times better in this building and we understand that..."

"They're coming right after us, so we have to get after them", he said.

The Warriors rallied a historic 16-1 playoff record en route to the title. Reality TV star Khloe Kardashian has been dating the Cavaliers' forward Tristan Thompson, and several members of the Kardashian clan watched Game 4 in Cleveland in seats near the floor.

Why the Warriors will not succumb to another Cavaliers comeback. They maintained a 15-plus point lead for practically the entirety of Game 4 with only Curry playing below his postseason standards. So fans with the best seats at Game 5 in California tonight could be sitting near the celebrity family if the Kardashians show up again. "You have to tip your hat to Cleveland", he said.

"When I say something, I've thought about what I'm going to say before I say it", continued Green. 126 teams have failed. But not since 1951 has a team down 3-0 forced a seventh game in the finals. If one believes, like James, that the Cavaliers are facing more pressure because they are on the brink, then that pressure is revealing Irving's character as a cold-blooded assassin. "This was the culmination of a year where (Durant and Curry) grew together and learned each other's games and got better and better all year".
