Warriors roll past Cavaliers, tie series at 2-2
Stephen Curry and Andre Iguodala scored 22 points apiece and the Warriors, showing why they were the league's best team all season, squared the NBA Finals at 2-2 on Thursday night with a 103-82 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Game 5 is Sunday night at Oakland's rambunctious Oracle Arena, where the teams split two overtime games last week. This wasn't desperation for the Warriors, but it was close, as none of the 32 teams which have fallen behind 3-1 in the Finals has won a title.
LeBron James scored 20 points -- 21 under his average in the series -- with 12 rebounds and eight assists, but Cleveland's megastar didn't score in the fourth quarter and couldn't do enough for the undermanned Cavaliers. Timofey Mozgov led Cleveland with 28 points.
