Cleveland has no choice but to try to slow down the potent Golden State offense. The Cavaliers no longer have the luxury of feeling things out as they can't take the chance of getting behind early with a 2-0 series deficit. Cleveland shot only 41.1 percent overall and made only 9-of-27 from three-point range in Game 2. The game went OVER due to the Warriors shooting 57.3 percent and even they won't be expected to match that output again on the road. Game 1 would have gone UNDER had it not been for overtime and the Warriors had stayed UNDER in seven of its previous eight games prior to the Finals. Look for the desperate Cavaliers to come out focused on defense immediately as they attempt to keep this one close and Golden State is 6-1 UNDER its last seven road contests. Play the first half to stay UNDER the posted total.
