Replay: NBA Finals Game 6 Warriors vs Cavs

Replay: NBA Finals Game 6 Warriors vs Cavs. The Golden State Warriors needed just one win to get a second title. No problem for a team that won a record-setting 73 games in the regular season, right?

Easier said than done, considering the Warriors had to go for that victory without their do-everything forward Draymond Green, who was suspended for Game 5 of The Finals after racking up too many flagrant foul points over the course of the postseason.

The Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers were even for most of Game 5, with the game tied at 61 at the half. Which is when Cleveland’s dynamic duo took over, as LeBron James and Kyrie Irving became the first teammates in history to both score at least 40 in a Finals game.

They led the Cavaliers to a 112-97 win, despite a 37-point night from Golden State’s Klay Thompson.
