Game 5 preview:

Well folks, what first looked like a blowout is now a series which has tensions from both sides! It's not like anyone didn't anticipate it...

Anyways, the X-factor for the Cavs finally appeared- their role players. Thompson was finally aggressive, people were making their shots, and this time the Warriors were the ones committing dumb fouls. Talk about a turn of events.

One thing we forget however is that the cavs were on fire- they were 24-45 on their threes I believe. Add in the fact that both Klay and Steph disappeared and you wonder how the Warriors didn't lose by 40. The second leading scorer for the Warriors was Green, who only had 17. Says a lot about their forgettable performance.

That being said, I think Klay will have a mediocre performance again, but Steph will fix his shot. The defensive lapses will also be corrected by Golden State to help them shut out the series 128-119.

Bold prediction: LeBron will be finals MVP, even if he loses. He is performing at a superhuman rate. Add in the fact that he's 32 and carrying his team proves he's the most valuable player on the court currently.
