NBA Finals Game 7 Scores

The NBA season has finally reached its pinnacle.  After a playoffs full of blowouts, we get to see one last fight between the Warriors and Cavs take place back in Oakland.  The Warriors are trying to regroup from one of the most disastorous games I think Ive seen from a starting lineup, posting just a 36 O Rtg and a negative 84.6 rating overall.  The killer was as I pointed out the other day, that the so called lineup of death fouls at a prodigous rate, and they had a rate of over 55% for the night in Game 6.  It also did not help that as a team they shot just 38% on three poitn attempts that were open or wide open. 

We will see if the Warriors without Bogut can tamp down on the Cavs ability to get to the rim and score.  42% of their shot attempts were from less than 10 ft out, and they made 63% of them.  If they can go back to the dominance they showed early in the series at that, the Warriors should walk off winners.  The program thinks they'll be able to figure it out, winning a tight 104-99 kind of game.It only gives them a 64% chance to do so though, largely because of the quickly disappearing defense over the last 3 games.
