The Warriors entered Game 4 of the NBA Finals with a chance to become the first team in NBA history to finish 16-0 in the postseason. The Cavaliers, however, had other plans. LeBron James, Kyrie Irving, and Kevin Love combined for 94 points as the Cavs cruised to a 137-116 win on Friday night, forcing a Game 5 in Oakland on Monday.

After a frustrating Game 4 loss in which he was initially ejected before being allowed to stay in the game, Draymond Green held a lively press session with reporters in the locker room, and had some choice words Cleveland residents.

A fan sitting court side, with close ties to LeBron James according to ESPN, was tossed by security during the third quarter, after getting into a verbal altercation with Matt Barnes.

It was 1970 when Bay Area musical legend Carlos Santana released his timeless hit, “Black Magic Woman.” Nearly 50 years later, a different Santana arrived in San Francisco to record a hit of his own, and it featured every bit of black magic as the lyricist’s Latin groove.

To say the refs have had a rough Game 4 would be an understatement.

Midway through the third quarter Kevin Durant drove hard to the rack and got smacked in the head by Kevin Love. The officials called the foul, but Kevin Durant appeared to be asking for a flagrant foul to be called.

A Cleveland columnist slammed Stephen Curry in a piece posted on Cleveland.com Friday, accusing the two-time MVP of taking an “air-dump” while celebrating Kevin Durant’s go-ahead three-pointer late in the fourth quarter. The columnist called Curry’s intent obvious before trashing his character, referring to him as “arrogant, whiny, utterly classless.”

ESPN’s Zach Lowe published a piece on Thursday detailing the redemption of Draymond Green following last year’s debacle in the NBA Finals, where his suspension from Game 5 helped Cleveland get back in the series, and ultimately overcome a 3-1 deficit.

Last week, it was reported that the Los Angeles Clippers had reached out to Warriors consultant, and long time LA resident, Jerry West, to gauge his interest in filling a similar role for the Southern California team moving forward. With his contract up this offseason, West has yet to commit to Golden State beyond this year, and reports stated that West was considering the offer to move to the Clippers’ front office.
