While Kyrie Irving, who missed the last 2 games of the Atlanta series, is not 100% he will go in this game.<\/p>\n<p>The main goal of King James and Cavs is to try to contain the Splash Brothers of league MVP Stephen Curry and Klay Thomson, who was cleared to play in this game after concussion issues. No team has been able to stop Curry, but Cleveland has to to try to do so and if they can keep him from shooting a high percentage, especially from 3-point range, they have a legit chance to win.<\/p>\n<p>James got a lot of help from the role players when Irving could not be the # 2 guy and he will need that in this game and the series. The more this game is a high scoring one the more it suits the Warriors, so Cleveland has to slow the game and try to make it a half-court affair.<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=63741&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p>These 2 teams split the 2 games facing each other this season with each winning at home.
