It's definitely an unfair thing to ask of LeBron to do. To play more and do more. The reality of this series is that he will have to do it in order for this team to beat GSW in my opinion. It would be easier for LeBron to rest if he knew he had teammates that can keep the momentum going or at the very least not let the game run away from them. He's going to have to impose his will on this GSW team.
Y'all still don't get it, this ain't NBA 2K:snoop:

Game 2 is intriguing to me. LBJ's teams normally rebound in game 2 after losing Game 1. Dubs are aware they dropped Game 2 last year and seem poised to not let that happen again. Will be interesting to see if the Cavs go more pick n roll this game. I expect one of Klay or Steph to shoot better. All in all Game 2 seems like a must win for the Cavs IMO.

Problem for Cleveland is that they NEED to play an A+ game to beat GS, not the other way around as game 1 showed.

GS playing a B+ game will beat Cleveland even if Cleveland is clicking on all cylinders

The Cavs can't take that chance anymore. The Warriors led the league in bench scoring. I believed that Cavs didn't look that up in their scouting report. You can tell by the way they double teaming Curry and Thompson. It was a stupid defensive strategy. The bench is going to off on the Cavs again like they did in the regular season and game 1 of the finals. Don't forget that it was the Warriors bench's mob won the finals last season.

Cavs can keep on over playing Curry on defense if they want to lose this series. :mjpls:
:dead: awful strategy. Series are lost when teams overreact to uncommon occurrances. You play the percentages and those tell you to stick to the two best players and make the others beat you. Reversing that after one game is what the Warriors would want now.
