Well, whether Game 2 of the NBA Finals was a must-win game or not for the Golden State Warriors (*cough* it was *cough*), they evened the series with the Boston Celtics at 1-1 with a blowout 107-88 victory. Now, as both teams head to Boston for Games 3 and 4, the Dubs will look to regain home-court advantage by winning at least one of their next two games.
While the final score was lopsided, the Warriors did not dominate from the jump. Golden State did bring an even greater defensive intensity in Game 2 than in Game 1, but it’s not that simple in the NBA Finals.
