It has been all Warriors through the first two games of this championship series in what has been a continuation of an incredible 14-0 straight-up run through this year’s playoffs.

Cleveland had gone 12-1 SU through its first three playoff series while going 7-4-2 ATS.

It would be hard to blame LeBron James for his team’s early deficit in this year’s NBA Finals. With his team closing as a nine-point home underdog in Game 1, he scored a team-high 28 points and pulled down 15 rebounds in the 113-91 loss. On Sunday night, he ended the night with a triple-double of his own after scoring 29 points to go with his 11 rebounds and 14 assists. Cleveland has not helped its cause shooting 34.9 percent in Game 1 and 45 percent in Game 2 after connecting on better than 50 percent of its shots in its first three playoff series.
