What to Watch 

What you'll see in Game 3 will either be the Cavaliers' redemption or their downfall.

The Warriors have now won seven straight games against the Cavs, which is the best any team has done against James per ESPN Stats & Info:

Golden State has won each of its first two contests with Cleveland by double digits; in Game 2, the Warriors straight-up embarrassed the Cavs to the tune of 110-77.

Perhaps the sneakiest and scariest aspect of Golden State's domination, for Cleveland anyway, is that it's not coming from the obvious place.

Superstars Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson have scored just 55 total points between them over the first two games of the finals. 

But you'd better believe they're making a bigger impact on the court than shows up on the stat sheet. 

The Warriors have forced the Cavs defense to game-plan to stop Curry and Thompson, and when that happens, Golden State really shines.

This is largely due to the work of Draymond Green, Andre Iguodala and Harrison Barnes, who, when together on the court with Curry and Thompson, compose the infamous Death Lineup. This lineup has delivered the dagger late in games to countless opponents, and the Cavaliers are the latest to become its victim. 

Sports Illustrated's Rob Mahoney credits not only Golden State's play design for the success the Warriors have had exploiting opposing defenses, but the chemistry on the floor, as well:

"

The best decoys in basketball aren’t really decoys at all. If the Cavs don’t sell out on Thompson as he comes off a pin-down or track Curry carefully when he works the baseline, they will eventually cede open looks to the two most dangerous opponents on the floor. If they do, their coverage will likely snap elsewhere—whether immediately by deserting another Warrior or through the gradual breakdown of consecutive rotations. That’s a credit to Golden State’s play design, in some cases, but largely to the chemistry of players who understand how to read the floor and one another. 

"

That's what's truly scary to Cleveland in this series, and it's what has frustrated opponents and awed viewers throughout this entire season. No team should be able to play as well as Golden State has been playing; it's truly been a blessed season. 

So who are the Cavs to mess with what sure feels like destiny?

Perhaps with a better supporting cast, James could bring a championship to his home state. Kevin Love's status for the game could prove crucial; the team listed him as questionable on Tuesday with a concussion.

The Cavs have cause for a bit of optimism; while Cleveland is 7-0 at home this postseason, the Warriors are just 3-4 on the road. So all is certainly not lost; not yet.

Still, it's hard to imagine this season ending in any other way than Golden State taking home the Larry O'Brien trophy.
