PAST YEAR
The championship returns to the bay after 40 years.
I did not like how we got to the final last year.
We do not have Kev the rest of the season,
and we knew that Ky dragged injuries.
from the first round.
It was very different to have the whole team to the fullest.
And I appreciate this moment. Be here once more.
The Cleveland Cavaliers and the Golden State Warriors,
once again in the NBA Final,
Looking to make your own story.
Yes, we like to be here again, but there is a lot of work ahead.
And very anxious to do it.
First game of the NBA Final. This it is.
The city of Cleveland waits
more than half a century ago a title,
while the Warriors want to revalidate their championship.
The perfect pin for the season of 73 victories.
Keep calm.
Let us stay united,
we will make some mistakes, it is part of the game,
but we must be united.
We come from making an effort worthy of a title,
from the beginning.
We will not wait two or three matches
to enter fully into the series. It will be from the beginning.
Enjoy every moment.
Enjoy the atmosphere. Every second, every minute.
Each play, each possession. Enjoy, okay?
To win! One two Three. Let's go!
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
Welcome to the Oracle Arena.
Tonight begins an epic series of seven games
Passing Chest from Green to Curry, marks Thompson.
Thompson slips ...
Curry with defensive mismatch. Curry for three ...
Right!
It's all you need.
Iguodala defending LeBron James.
James makes a reverse feint that seems so simple.
That beautiful!
And it does it with 2.03 m and 120 kg.
Barbosa behind the back on the right side.
The biggest advantage of the first half.
Very good plays of support players.
We are eight below. Come on, let's stay focused.
Let's close the first half well.
Let them get confused in the defense, let's go running.
Here comes Kyrie Irving. He avoids it,
and Iguodala steals it again. 3 against 2 in the counterattack.
Run Klay Thompson and ... Tray against the board and in!
Iguodala may be one of the best defenders.
It's the end of the first half.
SECOND BEDROOM
Golden State up by nine.
I see them in good shape.
We have to play hard and have more contact.
Do you understand what we are trying to do?
Kyrie Irving takes the ball and generates contact.
It's worth double and a free throw.
And Kyrie Irving has the chance of the three-point play,
with the result Warriors 56 and Cavaliers 49.
Let's stay firm and focused.
They'll make some shots, okay, let's stay focused.
Be aggressive, keep attacking.
Kevin Love rushes the shot, the ball is loose.
Love gets the ball and stuffs it.
THIRD QUARTER
And Cleveland to the front for the first time since the beginning.
Relax, it's all good.
Hey, we're in a good place.
One possession at a time. Let's go.
Livingston of medium distance.
39 substitute points. Only five for the Cavaliers.

Keep pressing on every possession.

Iguodala slaps her.

What a beautiful pass!
Curry passes it to Andre, who overturns it.
The lowest score of the season for Thompson and Curry combined.
And yet they are up by 15.
Final seconds. Three, two, one.
104-89.
The Warriors take the first one.
By courtesy of your bank.
Our defense was excellent, and they took over the ball.
Do it again
and we will always have chances to win.
We did a great team work.
It can touch anyone.
PRESS ROOM
Our job is to be ready.
Shaun Livingston was sensational,
but when they earn 45-10 from the bench,
It will be difficult to succeed, especially as a visitor.
ORACLE FORCE IN THE NUMBER
Everyone got involved.
You do not win a championship without the complete team, so ...
Proud of how they played.
We have to be sharper than in the first game.
At the end of the day, we have the same goal
which is to take the championship to Cleveland.
There are variants in the team, each one has an impact
and has the opportunity to help us win.
I hope it stays in the second game.
FORCE IN THE NUMBER
Come on, Warriors!
Last year, game two escaped us,
it put us in a bind when going to Cleveland ...
We know that they will come out desperate.
Only three of 31 teams that lost
two games to none in the history of the finals
the champions turned out
For the Warriors, it's about managing the pressure
and take another step towards the goal
to repeat the title.
FORCE IN THE NUMBER
We have to take care of the local court.
Be present, focus on the defense,
and have fun, enjoy our audience.
The concentration is the same as in the first game.
Defend every possession as crazy
and take care of the ball.
It will not be easy.
It is a hostile public, and they will want the 2-0. Why not?
At home they will want to win both,
so we're ready to play.
Let's leave everything, come on.
-Create, friends. -We have 48 min.
United to the account of three.

Bottom line, Draymond cuts ...

Four blocks in less than eight minutes.
That's how it is done, big guy.
They are being tougher than us. They are more energetic.
Do not get wrong. We have to be stronger.
Again James, on the high post.
Penetrate and get an easy tray.
The first points of LeBron James.
And fast, Steve Kerr asks for a minitiempo of 20 seconds.

Keep playing strong and being aggressive.
I want to see him. Keep attacking.
Dellavedova in the middle of the field faces the ring.

... outside towards Barbosa. For Klay ...
It is what this team always does.

These parties ended.
There is no mental barrier.
We know we have to play better.
And we have to get this out and play on Wednesday.

It does not make sense to celebrate.
We still have to go and finish the job.
