James in the final round has already won a total of 123 points. No other player in NBA history was not as effective in the first three meetings of the decisive competition.
– I just do what belongs to me – said shortly after the end of Tuesday’s match.
Cavaliers They are now halfway to the title. Persecuted by injuries the team once again gave a show of playing in defense. Warriors in the regular season could boast the best offensive attack in the first half but managed to score only 37 points and descended on the break, losing seven “eyes”.
Poorly played by Stephen Curry. Quarterback “Warriors” and the most valuable player (MVP) of the season in two quarters received only three points. In the third part of the game the visitors presented themselves even less. At some point, their loss was already 20 points (48:68).
But that was not the end of emotions. Pupils of coach Steve Kerr in the last quarter caught the rhythm and rapidly moved to counter the difference. Unlocked to Curry, who finally ended the meeting with achievements of 27 points.
When the remaining 2.45 minutes remained Cavaliers won only 81:80. Then I made an amazing action by Matthew Dellavedova. 24-year-old Australian was fouled by Curry, and even so in acrobatic how it got into the trash. Also used the free-kick.
After a while, the loss of committed Curry, and three came James. The hosts thus jumped to seven points and were able to focus on defending conduct. The tip was nervous, but I did not let myself snatch victory.
“King James” has traditionally been a prominent figure, but his efforts were in vain would make little difference if not for Dellavedova. In the NBA game until the second season, and found himself starting lineup after the first leg of the final, when the injury suffered Kyrie Irving.
On Sunday, he was praised for the great attitude in defense against Curry’emu. This time also showed solid game in attack – scored 20 points. Dellavedovie you can not refuse involvement. For a loose ball without hesitation, threw himself on the floor or in the first rows of the stands.
– I think he is made of steel – complimented his colleague James.
The Warriors team of other players outside the top five Currym gained only 25 points, hitting just 10 of 37 shots from the game. The situation was saved substitutes, among them before all Andre Iguodala – 15 points and David Lee – 11 points.
Before the finale erected as a favorite basketball players from California. Although losing 1-2, it should not be deleted. In the same situation they were in the Western Conference semifinals. Then they won three games in a row and eliminated the Memphis Grizzlies 4-2.
The next meeting will be held on Thursday, also in Cleveland.
