I look for the Cavs to play much better here in game 2. First off they got 2 days to prepare for this game.
NO ONE on the Cavaliers shot the ball well in Game One as they shot 34.9% overall as a team. They also had 20 turnovers compared to the Warriors 4. Golden St also had 12 steals and the Cavs had zero. Cleveland only had 3 players score in double figures.
Maybe it was Golden State's defense, but these numbers are well outside the statistical norm. If they can improve to just 40%, take care of the basketball and grab a few extra rebounds, you are looking at a completely different basketball game.
Tristan Thompson grabbed just one defensive board in 22 minutes. Look for that to improve. Also look for LeBron to play better offensively and on the defensive end. I like Cleveland PLUS the 9 pts here on Sunday night.
