Warriors head coach Steve Kerr had a little fun with the media — and LeBron James — at the end of Sunday’s press conference, following Golden State’s 122-103 win over the Cavaliers in Game 2.
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) Golden State All-Star guard Klay Thompson expects to play in Game 2 of the NBA Finals after spraining his left ankle in a scary fall during a collision when Cleveland’s J.R. Smith slid into him in the first quarter of the series opener Thursday night.
They finally got a bit of good news during a day off Friday when the NBA determined that Cleveland big men Tristan Thompson and Kevin Love wouldn’t be suspended for Game 2 on Sunday night for their roles in a late-game brawl.
The NBA has confirmed that officials were correct in their decision to overturn the controversial charge call on Kevin Durant in the final minutes of Game 1.
Kevin Love will not be suspended for leaving the bench and being on the court during an altercation in the closing seconds of Cleveland’s 124-114 overtime loss Thursday night.
LeBron James got a little testy during his postgame press conference after Game 1, when he was asked whether or not J.R. Smith knew the game was tied during closing seconds, or if Smith thought the Cavaliers were ahead.
