That 2nd foul on Curry was really one on each side, but meh, hometown call.

Irving the alter-ego-hero activated.

Cavs are a different team at home, my goodness. Complete blitz so far here. They're faster, more decisive, and hitting shots.

Warriors look shocked, not sure why really, but if they can weather the heavy storm, the have the tools to chip away at the huge lead. Shouldn't really be this big. It's on both teams.

Curry quick 3 from Mars was an ill-advised shot.

Gonna think the Warriors have to come up higher on the coverage against Kyrie now that he's nailing those pocket pull up jumpers.

Why the heck is LeBron playing like a dumbass. BE AGGRESIVE. This guy always plays so damn passive in the second quarter.

It's amazing how easy the Warriors guard that death play from the Cavs that the Raptors struggled much against.

Look at the length on the floor. IGGY/Barnes/Green/Livingston are all long.

Barbosa did a good job getting around the screen to deny LBJ the switch
