Though the Cleveland Cavaliers thrived on ball-movement throughout the playoffs, it was isolation-heavy play from LeBron James and Kyrie Irving that led to a historic evening in Oakland.
Following the Cleveland Cavaliers' disappointing Game 4 loss in Cleveland, LeBron James sat in his locker for an extra long amount of time. It wasn't like Game 6 in last season's NBA Finals where the four-time MVP attempted to put an entire city on his shoulders and carry them through the series—that extra-long stay was due to exhaustion and defeat. On Friday, James sat in his locker, legs submerged in an ice bucket, eating a post-game meal—a quesadilla, maybe.
