What are some of the biggest storylines surrounding the Finals? Here are a few that might dictate how the series unfolds.
Can the Cavs Keep Up Their Hot Shooting from Deep?
The Cavaliers were lights-out from three-point land in the Eastern Conference Finals against the Hawks.
J.R. Smith, Iman Shumpert and Matthew Dellavedova torched Atlanta when the Hawks decided to help off of LeBron James' drives. Will the Warriors follow a similar blueprint, or will they dare James to beat them on his own?
What's the Latest with Klay Thompson's Injury?
Per Rusty Simmons of the San Francisco Chronicle, Warriors guard Klay Thompson has been diagnosed with a concussion stemming from his Game 5 injury in the Western Conference Finals.
If that report is true, Thompson won't be allowed to return to the court until he's cleared by league protocol.
A lengthy rest period between the end of Game 5 and the start of the Finals should give the Golden State sharpshooter plenty of time to recover. Despite that fact, Thompson's condition is something to monitor over the coming weeks.
Which First-Year Coach Should You Trust More?
Despite leading their respective teams to the Finals, both Steve Kerr and David Blatt remain first-year coaches.
Kerr, of course, had extensive success as a player with Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls in the 1990s. Blatt, on the other hand, was an accomplished coach overseas before taking on the Cleveland gig.
Blatt received plenty of flack this season, but he made the necessary changes to befuddle Atlanta. Can he do the same and out-coach Kerr on the big stage?
Who Shines Brightest, the Reigning MVP or the King?
Come on. Is there any bigger Finals headline than the impending clash between Stephen Curry and James?
Curry's insane shooting ability garnered an MVP award this past season, but James has proved why he's the best player of his generation throughout the postseason.
In a series that figures to be tight, which superstar will come up the biggest when the lights are the brightest?
