KTVU Second Look June 21, 2024

Championships with just jump shooting. But you know what the thing thats sort of frustrating is this game was there for the taking. If the warriors just chewed a sub parred game instead of a terrible game they shot. You have to think their defense kept them in it which is what theyve done consistently all year. If they continue to do that and just shoot a little better you have to like their chances but this was not a good one today. This is the first time in cavs history that theyve ever won an nba final game. They had recently gotten swept by san antonio and losing the first game. Warrior fans are just not used to losing games in front of their eyes and thats what happened. We will discuss that. We have scott reiss who was in the warriors locker room. He will give us the view from there, what the mood was as they head to game three and four in cleveland and we have matt simons with us and we will talk about what the warriors have to do to try to get cleveland to stop dictating what they have to do here. Four times is the number of times the warriors have lost on the half court. You mentioned cleveland. Those guys are pretty hungry there. 1964 the Cleveland Browns the last time that city had a championship of any kind. So when we go back there its going to be very interesting to see. I was listening to it, this is like a mud fight. Neither team you know hitting their shots percentages very low all over the place. Lets just touch play and go and tell you how the First Quarter started. The warriors wanted to get off to a better start and they kind of did. Clay thompson off there. Thompson by the way had 34 points to lead the warriors but he was only four of 12. Shooting a guy who didnt get into the offense but mixed it all was bogut and had exactly seven basketting. Baskets. And he rebounds it pretty well. That guy lebron starts to rear his head. He had 10 of the cavs first 10 points. You talk about the warriors trying to get to a better start. They did get off to a better start but closing the quarters the cavs score 18 points and 20 points in a quarter is just ridiculous low for golden state when you think about what were used to seeing when it comes to the regular season. I dont think theres another force in the nba like lebron james. Every possession seems to go for him he played 60 minutes tonight. He said he could only go about 48. He didnt go 48 he went 50. I dont think theres a force like him in the league where every possession seems to go through him. Youre watching that game to me early on we will check with matt scott as they were watching it. I saw a lebron james who seemed to be trying to get the other guys into the mix. It almost seemed like he was pacing himself in that First Quarter because he was so dominant in game one seemed like he touched the ball in every possession. This time around he seemed to be trying to force the other guys to hey you guys take a shot or two. The other thing he did and we talked about how steph curry has done that at times just seemed to will your team to in this case a win. But bring them along. Im just going to not let us not win. You get that feeling when lebron james is on. Second quarter, 2020. Very low scoring. Lebron doing everything from the oud. He pops the three. As you well know by now, players getting into the action. And he find jones in the corner knocking it down. And the cavaliers begin to assert themselves quite forcibly in the second quarter. Thompson after picking up two quick outs in the First Quarter is back in. The quick release, got it to go. The long two there. And at halftime the warriors and cavs separated just a little bit. A bucket it was 4745 as you see the warriors head into the locker room and certainly not overly pleased by their play again in the first half at home. But still very much in the game. Then theyre saying that mentality that we didnt play that well and were close. And we come back to the defense and weve been hearing that but that is the thing that makes these guys different then maybe that team that Charles Barkley likes to think about. And thats the thing the warriors do. Its very different than what weve seen in these first two games than what we had seen during the regular season. Warrior fans are used to this team just sprinting out. Getting that on breaks. Building up the big lead. Its one of those things when theyre anticipating it coming and it just wont. From the sound of it after the game. Steve kerr doesnt think it may happen at all in the series. Have a listen. Tough game. Great defensive team. Both teams i think defended like crazy out there. Its a grind out kind of old school game. And, you know thats, thats the style that its you know its going to be. And when you get this deep into the play offs, its rarely a track meet. All right were way deep into these play offs. Scott reiss was out at the game tonight. Was in the locker room. Warrior fans you have reason to sh shiver in your boots. A great overtime too when we return. But only one shot to master the chase mobile app. Technology designed for you. So you can easily master the way you bank. music hey let me help with that. Oh, thank you music introducing the oneandonly Volkswagen Golf sportwagen. The sportier utility vehicle. When account lead craig wilson books at laquinta. Com.

La quinta inns suites is ready for you, so youll be ready for business. The ready for you alert, only at lq. Com. Laquinta whats up lebron. Whats up kerr. Congrats, congrats. Youre a team player, im a team player. A little insight into whats going on down on the court. Nobody said it was going to be easy. This thing is going back to cleveland. Its the nba finals. Its not supposed to be easy. But i think the interesting thing right now in this game was the way that the cavaliers were able to dictate the kind of personality and pace of this game. And maybe that changes if the warriors are shooting a little bit better. You heard what chris said. If theyre shooting better they might be able to tempo it a little better. And lets find out how it unraveled in the second half. Third quarter, im sure the warriors are going to shoot. Going to the baseline and bull his way to the bucket in off glass. Watch it again. Green doing everything he can to make it to the baseline not going to work. The guy also has top of the line passing skills. Bullet, cross court. On the money. Jr smith who had his moments on the negative side threads the three there though. And the cavs seem to control this thing but toward the end of the third. The warriors mount a threat. Momentum going. Look at this play to end the third quarter. Open court, that cannot happen, how do you miss a slam dunk. And the warriors instead of being within one point is all kind of physicality and rough down the stretch there at the end of the third. The warriors instead of being down only a point are trailing 6259 after three. And get this. The warriors score only 14 points in that third quarter. Thats terrible. But the cavs scored 15. So i mean they werent exactly lighting it up either. I was watching in game one how lebron james was getting in many cases the super star treatment. There were several times today where they were letting them play when you thought lebron james would have been getting to the line if hes getting that kind of treatment but they werent letting that happen. How lebron tpwot clumpering lebron got clobbered a couple of times. They were letting them play. Despite that blunder. Just not going to go for the warriors tonight. Nothing seemed to go. Lebron had 39 points. The three right there. Had the cavs up 11. Hes pumped up and youre thinking that was the dagger but no. They would get the mini version of it. He hit the three but he had only two all night long. Thats just not him. Golden state is iguodala finding harrison out there barns will put it down. Not only that hes fouled. Three point play, 1 23 left in the game. A little later on, warriors trying to pull even. Under 10 seconds. Curry the hoop and he hits it 7. 2 seconds left. Were tied at 8787 and youre thinking they have all the momentum going to overtime if they can get there because the cavs still have one more shot. Like he did in game one. Lebron will have another crack at winning the game for the cavs. This time he decides to drive. Doesnt get called and he misses the shot. So there you go. Were going to overtime. Absolutely exhilarating and you think the warriors are going to have that momentum and just crashes in. It didnt work out that way. I think they felt that. They felt they had the momentum at this point. They had been there in game one and they felt like they were going to grab the game at that point. No one in overtime lit it up. I told you if the cavaliers were going to make one basket in overtime. You figure golden state has it wrapped up. It was the end of scratch and glob for every point. The warriors got off to a bad start in the overtime as we press play and go and take a look at the overtime highlights. Matt simons will tell us in a moment. But he gets his first bucket of the game. He wound up with 10 points and 10 rebounds. Warriors are within three. Again the warriors try and make it happen here. Down by a point he draws the foul. He thinks its a three point shot however the replay clearly indicates he will get two shots and he will make them. Warriors go up one. But the cars hustling. After a miss here that looked like the warriors might win the ball game but Matthew Delavadova is fouled and he will calmly hit the three free throws. Clay thompson didnt block out. Curry draws a blank. Complete air ball when do you see that . I dont remember. To tell you the truth hes such an incredible shooter and it was just not his night. Lebron made one of two free throws. Warriors have a long shot at it but they turn the ball over and that is it. Lebron infatically throwing the ball down. Our scott reiss was in the locker room after the game. Scott not what were used to seeing from the warriors as a team. But individually, steph curry maybe the worse game of the year. Not maybe, it was his worse game. Hes clutch as they come but tonight for whatever reason he just could not find it. Curry actually broke a record missing 14 threes in an nba final game. Including two of 15 from beyond the arch. His work game dating back to february of 2014. Bad timing for sure but sometimes the ball just doesnt go in. Even for the mvp. Shots i normally made. I knew once they left the hand this usually doesnt happen. Mechanically, they just didnt have the rhythm. Hes the mvp you expect him to make them but everybody misses a shot every now and then. And he was having a bad night. Were going to ride with him and i mean, you know everybody had an off night. You know he did other things to help us win the game and to put us in the position to help us win the game. Were going to live with him shooting if he has a tough night for the rest of the season then he has a tough night. But nobody is looking for him to stop shooting. Im not going to let one game alter my confidence. I know as a team were not going to let one game alter our belief that were going to win the series. Of course we cant forget curry did hit that game tieing lay up to send it into overtime. Mark and joe as the guys said wasnt his night. Scott you were in the locker room after the game. It was such an atypical performance not only from curry but for the team itself. The mood in there. Did you feel a vibe in there. They dont lose when they come back after 11 down. The fans stunned silence. But inside the locker room even keel. Confidence not waning. They cant shoot the ball less amazingly than tonight and they still came back from being down 12 and lost it by just two. And coming up, st. Marys product coming back and his impact on this one. Stay focused, got to stay locked. Be disciplined. We have to come out and be the aggressor on both ends. Play with a sense of fire. I love that sound in the locker room giving you a little extra insight. We welcome you back to the special nba finals edition of sports wrap. Joe get us introduced to our guest. Lets introduce Matt Steinmetz right now. You can run them down better than i can undoubtedly. I just like basketball. Im a basketball game and i will talk about the game. As long as i can remember youve been there for several different entities. Dont date me too much. Look who youre talking to. It would have been very easy with irving out. Everybody would have assumed its going to be easy now. If there was a game when they willed themselves to win it was tonight. Tonight it was all about lebron james. The way the warriors played offense which i thought was pretty terrible. The one thing that gets the warriors into trouble is when they take shots, the quick threes. I think that happened way too fast tonight. They were eight for 35 from three point game. The stat to me that blows me away is the cavaliers shot and 38 and won the game. Throughout the season the warriors have seen all kind of defense thrown at them. Now that the season is over, the way to beat the warriors is play them man to man. Try to take a chance that someone can control steph curry. I dont think is known for that. He did something right to say the least. Lets hear what the st. Marys product had to say. As a team we have a collective confidence that we can still win. And still get the job done i think we developed that at the end of the chicago series and atlanta series. I think we have good cohesiveness on offense and especially on the defensive end. It had everything to do with deli. You know he just, he kept a body on steph. He made steph work. And he was spectacular. Defensively and you know, you know we needed everything from him. When you have lebron saying that. Its all about deli. You have it. We have more with matt steinmentz as we break down the defeat to even out the series. Going back to cleveland. We have more in a moment. 9593 the cavs defeat the warriors in game two. Series all even 11. Going back for games three and four in cleveland. Matt steinmentz with us. I think the top of the headline is going to be something about curry tonight. I dont think were used to see this. No i think he played his worse game of the season. Not just shooting the ball but he had six turnovers and he seemed to be rushing his shots. I tell you what keep an eye on, remember when he had the bad ball against houston in game four. Since that point hes only seven for 32. Maybe its a coincidence. Interesting. Tonight two of 15 from three. What i dont like is the percentage of his shots were threes. That tells me you know he was one dimensional tonight. Hes better when he does a little bit of everything. Let me just ask you about the complex of this whole thing that during the regular season you dont see teams back to back. Now potentially you can see a team seven straight times. How different is that and as we heard scott say the warrior players say. Nobody is worried. They know theyre going to make adjustments. How much is it to get the up tempo. Once you see cleveland play. You realize how far they shoot the ball from. They take the step out. Sorry to catch you out no thats all right. Thats tv time it goes quick. Three and four in cleveland tuesday and thursday night. Thanks for being with us, everybody. Have a great night. Change that one. door opens and closes cameron im back. singsongy okay, let me see let me see, let me see you guys are want to, um. Oh, my god highpitched voice i love it all clear. Okay, so highpitched voice oh oh normal voice so good it is so good oh for the last few months, cam and i have been redoing a house together that were gonna flip, and i have to say, it has been goin great we make an amazing team. Yeah. The key is trust. Absolutely. The key is, i let claire think shes in charge. I hide what i want in something bigger and more expensive. Then when she rejects that we compromise on what i wanted all along. I call my method the trojan horse. You know how i got lily . I asked mitchell for triplets
