their way toward this title game two of the finals this is Kevin Harland alongside Clark Kellogg and Greg Anthony da will join us tonight on the sideline now the starting group for the visitors Durant is out there with LeBron James it’s Michael Jordan and it’s Curry and it’s O’Neal in at the five big Daddy is out there with Williams and there’s Mr moves then there’s Mr incredible and it’s Watson in at the three they’ve overcome a number of challenges just to get here now down one game to none greg they face a huge hurdle and you know what i think they learned a lot in game one playing against the best the league has to offer they know they have to make some adjustments keep everyone involved and they have to hit the open shots they’re given you were talking about the adjustments before i agree curry with outside KD o’neal sets the screen for KD a floater shaq can’t hit man I can’t believe he blew that gimme guys well I know he’s frustrated about that mr moves misses you can’t look at the result of that shot they’ll take that whenever they get it well you know I hear you that’s a good look but when you’re that wide open I think you got to knock it down there’s Big Daddy and there’s the pass to Mr incredible and Shaquille O’Neal pulls it down and that was a little bit of a range check for him you know guys I think he’s got confidence to shoot it from anywhere but he could have gotten a better one than that and cans it from downtown it looks easy effortless curry natural from long range here’s Mr moves guarded by Curry the feed now to Williams pass to Mr moves and right away they match it with a three-pointer of their own the wheel come at us and we’re coming right back at you a little back and forth from long range i love it that’s a terrific answer there a shot by Jordan no good not sure what what the D was doing there clearly a breakdown you can ill afford to give a guy like him that good a look passes it to Mr incredible hangs home the trifecta and he’s not going to miss that sort of an opportunity from deep gone just 104 to get this game started now here’s Curry he’s covered closely shack in the high post durant in the corner good and the assist goes to Jordan right back at you durant motivated to put it right in his opponent’s face no better way to do it than with a three of his own here is Mr incredible [Applause] uses the glass to finish the lane mr incredible’s got five well he is looking confident love how they’re using him so far and you know what they’re going to keep using i mean he’ll be the centerpiece of their offense today you can bank on that i’m not sure there’s another player in the league that a coach would have more confidence in taking that shot than Steph Curry here’s Mr moves and he lobbs it up toward the rim an invented Lu K and the definition of teamwork right there on that alley and Greg what about the finish bringing it down with some thunder yeah I tell you what I think the pass was even better i mean that was room service delivery at its finest now here’s Jordan here’s Curry with the three rebound by Williams and even against defense as tight as that you almost expect him to still bury those big Daddy here’s Mr moves it’s the three-point six points for him and you can see that back court just setting the tone for the entire team outside O’Neal a deep three from Jordan sinks it what range from outside wow how about that for a response got to love seeing MJ fire back with a three of his own the pass to Big Daddy pass to Mr incredible and he can’t answer back the three-pointer offline [Applause] now here’s James he’s guarded closely outside curry good and the assist goes to James seems like he can’t miss right now guys i mean completely in the zone this quarter here’s Mr moves guarded by Ker passes it to Mr incredible oh good from outside a bit of pride at stake trying to get that last three ball back but couldn’t get it to fall jordan kicks to James inside trying to find Curry he’s got it now back to LeBron four on the shot clock and he banks in the layup yeah it just seems that every pass they make is leading to a score just great ball movement gone five of nine from the field here in the first pass to Big Daddy throws it up high you know passes like that go a long way terrific teamwork gone six of 10 from the field in this ball game here’s Curry nine points in the game so far kd looking around from down in the low post it goes durant’s got five points so far we know Curry has tremendous vision and he uses it to tee up his teammates for easy shots here’s Mr moves fouled on the shot and picks up two points so one free throw coming up defensive Alexanders checked in for Wanabi first personal foul first team foul at the line from your home team number 16 one shot gone seven of 11 from the field to begin the game james up top here’s Seakka it’s tipped the ball goes out of bounds last touch by Seakum let’s take a look at the players who have pulled down the most rebounds during this postseason look at O’Neal third in rebounding and what a physical presence inside and of course Mr incredible those two have been really aggressive in the paint so far this postseason they provided the kind of rebounding you need in this atmosphere here’s Mr moves he’s got nine there’s the pass to Mr incredible hits it from three-point range eight points for him just focusing on the task at hand that’s all you can do yeah these teams trading punches right now i mean it’s table tennis back and forth we go heat heat heat heat heat heat heat heat yeah heat [Applause] very well 58% the offense is falling right now early for them o’neal issues to James curry on the wing seakum outside six to shoot and a great assist by Curry as that one goes in stephen Curry curry’s got three assists now in this one gone four of seven from three-point range so far in the first gil Alexander against Jordan and he gets contact and the whistle on the shot two shots coming up and this guy just does everything scores passes good rebounder just an allaround terrific basketball player [Applause] and the first one at the line is good [Applause] gilas Alexander hits them both and that’s another area where he is just a superb player excellent at the free throw line curry pass it to O’Neal now here’s Jordan he’ll just Alexander cover outside curry they swipe it [Applause] [Music] the Big Daddy passes to Mr incredible and Shack comes to help here’s Big Daddy scoring his first three basket in three tries i’ll tell you what I’m not sure these guys can keep this up high octane action for sure crowdleasing already now here is Jordan pass to James takes the 13-footer rebound by Williams greg I’m sure their coach is very pleased with their offensive flow right now i mean it’s harder than it looks to get it going like this now they just have to maintain it gone eight of 14 from the field in the first quarter siaka passes to Jordan whistle blows basket is good so a chance here for a three-point play pretty good display of strength by Jordan there absorbing contact and still able to nail the shot and he’s got his first chance at the line here chad Homegrren he’s checked in for Big Daddy [Applause] and that one misses you know the separator with Jordan from other guys is his drive that’s obvious in my mind he wants to win more than most anybody else out there on the floor first personal foul 13 foul at the line for two number 22 [Applause] the first one falls [Applause] both good from the line that time and here’s Hallebertton [Applause] outside cur here’s the three that falls nice feet that time from Hallebertton Curry’s got 12 points in the game he’s found his rhythm from deep and and you can see the confidence yeah I’d be confident too as a matter of fact I mean if you’re stacking up threes the way he is I mean he’s doing all this work from behind the arc now here’s Seako he finds O’Neal killes Alexander against Hallebertton pops it up for Jordan and stolen by Williams feeds it to Homegrren the shot goes in first shot first basket and his presence as a score it just has a calming effect for the rest of the team he’s a fallback option whenever they need one ends with a timeout here taken by Rick Carlo heat heat [Music] [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] now here is Hallebertton seiakum deciding where to go with it back to Hallebertton it’s Curry outside and Homegrren pulls it down and you don’t want to give up that kind of look too often this is it to Mr incredible homegrren with a screen on Jordan tooked away and stolen by Jordan shooting foul as the whistle blows he’ll shoot two free throws hard not to respect how tough Jordan is inside really good at angling his body to pick up foul this is his second trip to the line in this one free throw good jordan big daddy’s checked in for Williams [Applause] and so Jordan nails both of them and the home team has possession here’s Mr moves nine points in the game so far siaka right side back to Hallebertton and he gets it to go from the high post that’s one of the things his coaches have encouraged him to do look for the mid-range jumper tyrese way to knock it down the 17footer and that one’s good mr moves mr moves got 11 points he has created some terrific opportunities for himself and really made the most of it and it’s Jordan with the jam no doubt about the brilliance of Jordan as a player outstanding at knowing when to go get that alleyoop here’s Mr moves he’s got 11 and there’s the big time jam he slams it right over Turner well guys this first half has been about as tightly contested as you could hope for there have been a lot of lead changes my goodness and on the AT&T 5G Slam Cam you can see how impressive that move was now here’s LeBron pass to Jordan here’s the triple yes and it’s LeBron picking up the assist james has got three assists in the game monster quarter for him he’s put the team on his back trying to carry them to the W here’s Mr moves he’s got 13 outside for Gildas Alexander the big daddy passes to Mr moves they set the screen just fine to shoot plenty of daylight on that shot he’s got 15 fantastic start from the field for him six for eight mr moves gone a terrific six of eight shooting from the floor allebertton outside turner up top [Applause] he feeds it to Jordan and he’s fouled pretty hard on that shot but he’s got the chance to pick up the points at the line got one on Gil Alexandri Jordan challenging the numbers to guard the little update there putting the defender at his mercy [Applause] first free throw is good williams he’s checked in for Mr incredible [Applause] [Applause] and so Jordan nails both of them gotten a lot of shots off from three-point land in the first quarter but they’re only four if not mr moves passes to Gilg Alexander [Applause] outside Williams and a great assist by Gilg Alexander as that one goes in how about the floor awareness by Gilg Alexander solid at just spotting his open teammate just two seconds between shot clock and game and it’s blocked and it’s going to be out of bounds they’ll keep possession and that kind of stifling effort on defense needs another look man that block was something it’s the playoffs and every possession and defensive stop matters josh Giddy [Applause] [Applause] siaka passes to Hallebertton [Applause] jordan against Gilis Alexander and it’s Hallebertton missing it’ll count and the last shot before the buzzer is off well it’s been a highscoring competitive game through the first quarter of play up by one and we’ll get the second quarter underway on the other side of this break [Music] [Music] [Music] and glad to have you with us as we get going here in game two guys what’s your take on the home team so far well the offense is clicking and they seem to have seized the momentum here early on yeah you know I agree no warm-up needed they came in on fire and have already built a nice lead [Applause] [Music] here’s Big Daddy gil Alexander out there with Mr moves then it’s Josh Giddy then it’s Judg and it’s Big Daddy in at the for short that one’s good mr moves and obviously his momentum from the last game has carried over here tonight and you know that’s how it goes with him i mean his hot streaks guys don’t last minutes they last days so with Curry sitting on the bench here’s who Rick Carile’s going with they’ve got Jordan seakum is out there with turn then it’s James and it’s Hallebertton into the point guard count that one and the home team has possession here’s Big Daddy the three and that one’s good mr moves mr moves got 20 it’s first triple of the second quarter third of the game and Jordan throws it down he is certainly a dominant player michael Jordan when he’s in the zone unstoppable time out time out started [Applause] [Applause] on the court next checked in for Mr moves here are this postseason’s dead eyee shooters these guys have knocked down a ton of shots from downtown second Chad Homegrren he is having so much success from beyond the three-point line some guys just thrive on this kind of pressure [Applause] just over a minute gone here in the second quarter now the pass to Watson shoots over KD Zab no good and not allowing the shooter even an inch of breathing room on that one and guys that’s exactly the kind of high impact defense they want to see out of him now here is Jordan 16 points for him yes that goes Anthony and you can just see the extraordinary competitiveness MJ staying laser focused after absorbing the contact the big daddy passes to Gil Alexander Pass to Watanab to Gilus Alexander down to five on the shot clock on the stripe and that’s good for two that’s a funky distance for a jumper sga making it look routine lebron outside and foul on the shot so he’ll get a chance at the line it goes on Josh Giddy first team he’s getting his first free throw attempt of the night right now lebron James [Applause] and he makes the first look the physicality has always stood out with LeBron it’s been obvious but his basketball IQ is what makes him such a special special player i mean he sees the game like very few ever have turner’s checked in for Jordan [Applause] and both free throws good for LeBron gone six of 12 from outside a very nice 50% mark shooting the three ball well gil Alexander with it hallebertton picks him up the second effort and he drops in the layup off the glass gil Alexander’s got six and how about the energy from SGA and he gets after it on the backboard as well now Hallebertton and here’s LeBron outside that ball nice feet that time from Hallebertton hallebertton’s got five assists in the game three minutes of action so far in the second quarter julius Alexander finds and you know teams are going to be physical with but he’s aggressive and boy he plays with passion this is his first free throw of the game two shots free throw drops for Homegrren and something I like about Homegrrim is his ability to run the floor a sevenfooter who can get up the court in a hurry and get to the rim before the knee gets set [Applause] both shots good from the strike and it’s been a really good day for him at the line some other bigs have well doumented problems on their free throws he’s not one of them here’s Turner and it’s slammed in by Turner does a nice job at capitalizing in the screen and roll i mean Turner’s IQ and size tough to contain when he’s rolling to the basket now here’s Giddy hasn’t made one yet homerren and the dunk by Homegrren that instant response to try to throw down on his team it just gets them fired up and that’s the result they launch an assault on the basket i think the stakes just got raised a little bit here’s LeBron seven points in the game off the mark from 16 ft out homegrren against Alberta homegrren gets the bucket homegrren’s got eight points i’m encouraged watching Homer finish through contact because it’s something he’s going to have to do consistently here’s James passes and here’s the fast break hold leading the way and that’s how to make an impact with defense once the steal is made you know they’re going to be scattered gilges Alexander against Hallebertton here’s LeBron it’s rebounded by Giddy G on seven and nine and their field goal actually in the second quarter pretty good offense and it’s George Alexander in the corner for the three the rebound by Turner gone five and seven from the field here in the second here’s Hallebertton and the layup’s good off the glass he’s got six very good composure and control that time by Hallebertton not allowing that physical defense to affect his shot at all as to Watson giddy against Durant tries the spin move and the layup is good after a nice defense and it’s eight points for Big Daddy and of the last six baskets five have come on the interior this is just smashmouth physical basketball guys now here’s Turner kicks it to LeBron [Applause] james Crows it in never gets old seen LeBron explode off the floor like that gone eight of 11 from the field in the second quarter really flowing here and so Mark Dagnel calls a timeout they’re feeling confident after Tuesday’s big win and with the type of defense they played that day they were able to cause a lot of mistakes yeah and causing a lot of turnovers as you well know means cashing in on those opportunities which really can put a team in a bad way in a hurry heat heat [Applause] here is Mr incredible he’s got 10 from past the arc crew on the triple miss got 23 and that makes it two three quarters in the quarter so far at four for the game down low here’s Jordan and then dunk by Jordan putting those passing skills to work lebron truly a gifted passer here’s Mr moves guarded by Kirk mr moves misses so well the offensive execution has been brilliant 66% from the field off a pass steph Curry that one is always going in or almost always going in here’s Mr moves 23 points in the game fires away from outside and it’s Durant with the rebound he’s gotten both of their three-point attempts to go down here in the second quarter [Applause] hallebertton passes to Cur and they’re pushing it up and the dunk by Homegrren and attacking the rim home making excellent use of that height inside there’s the feed to Kirk the pass to Jordan pocket six and they call the foul so he’s got the and one chance here to make it a three-point play not much else you can do defensively you try to make it hard on Jordan without fouling but he’s just too dialed in this will make four trips to the line so far in the game shay Gil Alexander checked in for Homegr that one drops he ties it up gone seven of 15 from three-point range tonight they’re not afraid of that shot to the inside mr moves good from the moment it left his hand that makes him 10 for 14 boy what a quarter for him i mean he’s found his rhythm and he’s really riding that wave right now pass to James outside durant takes the three good and the assist goes to James james has got his seventh assist here tonight poetry in motion such a smooth stroke you assume when Durant lets it go that three ball’s going down here is Mr incredible he’s got 10 mr moves passes to Gil Alexander the defense ready for him on that possession they had to be cuz he is so strong in the paint stripped away [Applause] here’s Mr moves guarded by Kurt that one’s good mr moves he talked about a back andforth game this is the definition you have to love these kinds of games scoring wise keeping everybody on their toes well a careless foul and it’ll go to the line for three free throws even while being fouled Curry stays nimble and manages to get a shot off this is his first chance at the line tonight [Applause] that’s good from Stephen Curry what you have to respect about Curry is that he is never satisfied he’s always fine-tuning his game and working hard to stay as sharp as possible homer he’s checked in for Big Daddy [Applause] good on the second free throw [Applause] and he makes all three and they have yet to miss a shot from the line here this quarter yeah you have to make teams pay for fouling you that’s why they call them free and they’ve done exactly that made them pay and so Mark Gagnol calls a timeout michael Jordan really making a difference here he just keeps hitting shot after shot they need to design a way to deny him the basketball make someone else beat you [Music] [Music] and on the screen now is the 2K leaderboard with a rundown of this postseason’s assist leaders take a look at Mr incredible top five in the NBA and his teammates level and it seems like he’s taken it on his shoulders to get every one of his teammates involved in the offense here in the postseason what a passing display here is Mr incredible 10 points for him and stolen by James [Applause] seiakum with it outside curve this one for three it’s deflected mr incredible the pass to Gilas Alexander they get a hand on it no clue where that pass was going that is a brutal turnover gone three of four with the long range bombs here in the second quarter james in the high post he’s got nine curry with the bucket huge night for Curry in a great rhythm thus far that’s always bad news for the team he’s facing gone two of four from three-point range so far in the second quarter pass to Homegrren [Applause] here is Mr incredible pass to Watson of Here’s Mr moves he’s got 27 you know what though sometimes you can be too open i think it may have surprised him and that’s why he missed [Applause] seakum up top defended by Homer [Applause] no one near James as he lets it go his three-pointer is off the mark got the three-point shot off 16 times tonight seven times they’ve hit it nine times they’ve missed but just solid on the one-handed slam and guys when it’s a tight ball game like this he’s the guy they want with the ball somebody you can count on he is an extremely reliable finish and the tuck change well it’s good to see Jordan focus on distributing the ball some i mean an allaround talent who does everything for this team here’s Mr incredible the long distance three is Bill mr incredible’s got 13 points maybe he’s not one of the elite sharpshooters but even still that’s not a shot that D can afford to get a deep three from Jordan tried to come right back with a three of his own it’s no good well it looks like he’s cooled down a bit after hitting those two in the first quarter mr moves passes to Gilas Alexander here he goes no luck that time on the shot that would have put them on top an impressive 65% having their way with this defense gilas Alexander against James jordan kicks to LeBron here’s Curry with the three and it’s Shay Gilis Alexander with the rebound 52 seconds left to play in the first half from the arc shots good by Watanabi watanabi he’s got his second bucket tonight yeah there’s six points on consecutive three balls they’re finding holes now in the deep here’s Curry with the three another three from Steph Curry this guy is unreal and once again the defense allowing him to get a clean look at that triple he continues to do some big time damage from downtown near the three-point line it’s Homer good for the fifth time in five shots he remains perfect no misses for him yet in this quarter solid as a rock two second difference between shot clock and game clock jordan deciding where to go with it [Applause] five on the clock from outside the arc he can’t get it to go he made it he’s caught us big time wow oh incredible buzzer beater there guys this crowd is going wild and some good action through the first two quarters as we reach halftime up four and now we’ll send it over to David Aldridge who is standing by Courtzaw david thanks Kevin coach how would you evaluate your team’s performance in the first half well you know I like the way we’re playing tonight but you know one or two untimely turnovers uh these guys are going to convert quickly so we have to play an aggressive but precise game rick thanks for your time back to you Kevin thanks so much Dave for the great interview don’t go away folks we’ll be back for the second half of basketball right after this welcome in everybody game two and it’s looking pretty good right now the effort we’ve seen from the bench so far it really helps to keep this kind of depth guys who can come in on the offensive end and they don’t miss a beat makes things a little easier on the starters but in the second half they’re going to have to bring it as well some would look at this game as a mustwin in the series one of the keys to getting it done for me Ernie it’s all about protecting the ball treating every possession like it’s your last and defensively you got to be extra hungry chase down every rebound and keep constant pressure on the shooters good tips from the experts oh when no one’s an expert Ernie i am and that’s a halftime wrap let’s get back to the second half with the call by Kevin Harland and the crew [Music] and we’re back with you as these two teams do battle in their quest for an NBA championship you know Mr moves has been exceptionally advantage today man he’s been running wild on through that first half absolute dynamite on offense and you know what i’ll be interested to see just how much he’s got left in the tank that first half had to take a lot out of it they’ve got Homegrren mr incredible is out there with Mr moves and it’s big daddy and it’s watching in at the three and that’s who Mark Dagnel starts the second half in the train and they’re getting their points now almost exclusively from the triple four of their last five mates are from beyond the ark it’s hard for me to watch this I mean the defense practically giving them those shots now here’s Curry to the paint here is O’Neal it’s good boy that’s thrown man wait room ammonia strength from O’Neal brushing off the contact like it was never even there and converting first trip to the free throw line for him tonight over 7 ft big quick hands shaq is a one of one type of player here’s Mr moves to the middle boom he changes three time and he can do a lot more damage to the rim than that when he wants to oh you’re right oh and with the lead they’re enjoying I’m surprised he didn’t put a little something extra on that one well I think he did plenty of damage nonetheless i mean it was only with one hand but he still threw that down pretty hard well if he’s going to hit that forget about it defensively this is what you want Jordan to settle for except that he goes and puts it right between your eyes mr incredible can’t get it to go an incredible 64% from the field in this game he fires from the corner and it’s out of bounds nice touch by Curry and that’s just carelessness there i mean you have got to have your head in the game 90 seconds now into the second half homegrren with a screen on Jordan the pass to Homer [Applause] pass to Mr moo six on the shot clock here is Mr incredible nailed from three-point land mr incredible’s got 16 and really as the three-pointers keep dropping you get the sense that the frustration is mounting for the defense yeah and they either have been unwilling or unable to take that shot away and the great shooters know when they’ve got enough opening to go for the three i didn’t think it was a bad choice on that possession here’s Mr moves he has 30 and here we go fast break jordan’s got it from deep LeBron and Homer pulls it down on two of three when they ventured outside the arc in the third quarter unloads from 13 shots good by Mr incredible mr incredible’s got five points now this quarter gone one of three from downtown since halftime knocked away right around 3 minutes into the second half here’s Big Daddy six for six he’s got a miss from the field unwilling to let up even for a moment that’s his killer instinct just fanning the lane yeah I love the fact he doesn’t play the score he just keeps coming attack mode he doesn’t know how to step off the gas now here’s LeBron he’s got 11 and the rejection by Hungren long 71 with that 76 wingspan hungren can alter or block just about every shot in his vicinity wide open look it’s rebounded by Jordan gone two of five shooting here in the third quarter just over 3 and 1/2 minutes through the third quarter of play [Applause] james outside to shoot good and the assist goes to Jordan that is the savvy of LeBron on display doesn’t just convert but draws the foul and has the chance to tack another one on his point total this is his third free throw that’s after the game williams he’s checked in for Jed Homegrren free throw good James here’s Mr moves there’s the three and Shaq pulls it down how hard to figure out how he doesn’t knock that one down no defender in sight durant kicks to Jordan jordan is double here’s O’Neal and Shaq with the slam yeah and Jordan sees the floor so nicely i mean one of his guys has a clean look he gets the ball to him in whiplike fashion here’s Mr moves he has 30 williams a screen on Curry mr moves misses gone four of seven to get things started here in the second half curry dishes to O’Neal now here’s Jordan tight defense on him curry on the wing shot clock at five good another from three and he’s letting it fly from long range to devastating effect and he’s now tied the franchise record for triples in a playoff game here’s Big Daddy guarded by KD here’s Big Daddy offensive struggles continue missing again lebron kicks to Jordan [Applause] this is a Turkey for the lead connects again from distance and talk about stepping up he’s having a playoff game these fans won’t ever forget that last three means he’s got the most threes in a single playoff game in franchise history and so Mark Dagnel calls a timeout here [Music] are the NBA’s top scorers during this postseason as shown on the 2K leaderboard take a look at Mr incredible top five score in the league what a player he is and he’s taken off on a tremendous scoring streak at the perfect time i mean obviously he’s established himself as a premier playoff performer [Applause] pass to Mr williams and it’s out of bounds nice touch by Curry gets a finger on it but just can’t quite come up with the steal clearly a careless pass he got away with one there here’s Watinab James covering and the best of Big Daddy when you combine Durant speed and anticipation with his length makes it impossible to get around him when he’s defending you curry outside rebound by Williams williams has got four rebounds now tonight here’s Watson covered by LeBron they need this shot good by Mr incredible mr incredible stat points in the quarter and he’s on his way to putting up a big three-point total and here is Curry he has 29 three-pointer mr incredible pulls it in gone three of seven from three-point range here in quarter number three here’s Mr moves knocks down the three ball mr moves got 33 once again he’s able to knock down the long range jumper he’s on automatic just a brilliant game now here’s Curry defense right on him [Applause] to the inside shack’s shot is off gone with the three-point shot eight times already in the second half and hit four and the ball goes out of bounds last touch by Jordan jay Gilis Alexander checked in for Wanabi here’s Mr moves 33 points for him here’s Mr incredible and then Shaq with the rebound o’neal’s got six rebounds now in the game inside it’s deflected siako got a hand on it there’s Big Daddy he’s got 12 here’s Mr moves 18 ft away and he knocks it down mr moves got 35 in the game pick works well there not much resistance from the deep yeah that’s not the defense you need you got to be tougher defensively screen by O’Neal curry pass it to O’Neal good and Curry gets the assist curry’s got assist number five here tonight take a look at how Shaq owns the paint nobody’s getting in his way inside pass to Mr move drills the three-pointer mr mo’s got 38 points all these threes they’re giving up have really been the driving force on this run and with a timeout here taken by Rick Furlock you have to like what we’ve been seeing from Mr moves he’s really taking it to him inside they got to find a way to slow him down noise [Applause] on defense the home team they’ve led by as much as 10 he muscles it in through the contact and they call the foul and he’s on his way to the free throw line you know this is why Jordan is such an effective scoreer picks his spots really well inside he shot five of six at the foul line [Applause] [Applause] and so here’s the home team four-point game oh and there’s the yellow oh and the league gets bigger what a ridiculous offensive secret that dunk alone would have been spectacular never mind it coming at the end of an area well I tell you what they’ve got this team just a step away from being completely sleek throw line jump shot mr incredible pulls it in a slight advantage for them in the rebound department but that often times is all it takes especially when you’re scoring the ball at a decent clip the way they have i mean they’ve done exactly what’s necessary to take the lead now here is Siako and Curry here we go starting in that one good curry’s got 31 i mean he is so lethal on the drive once Curry knives inside there’s little you can do to stop him here’s Mr moves here’s Mr incredible williams with a clean look and the three ball is good williams has got himself going there his first points of the game on the deep ball gone to the three-point shot eight times already in the second half and hit four of them seakum outside here’s Curry with the three curry laser guided shot from deep range what an exhibition he’s putting on today this is about as hot as you can get here’s Mr moves he has 38 in the game passes it to Big Daddy a three and it’s Shaq with the rebound o’neal’s got seven rebounds in the game both loose 157 left in the third quarter gilis Alexander against Jordan here’s Big Daddy and a great assist by Gilis Alexander as that one goes in julius Alexander’s got four assists in the game to LeBron here’s Shack he takes it in for the layup of a very nice feet o’neal’s got nine points now in just the second half here is Mr incredible covered by LeBron the kick out to Williams and he’s good on the three ball williams has got six yeah they’re relying on their three-point shooting and getting pretty good results now here’s Curry guarded closely outside for Jordan and they come right back with their own three-pointer jordan’s got 32 points in the game gilges Alexander against Jordan the pass to Mr moves steps back and fires and Shaq pulls it down o’neal’s got rebound number eight now on the night curry pass it to Jordan and he converts the lay 34 points for Michael i tell you what guys there’s not much more he can do i mean he’s been on fire yet they still trail in this game 7second difference shot and game clock here’s Mr incredible and he gets the whistle two free throws coming up first team at the line for numbers [Applause] and that one falls for Williams so both teams making some changes here [Applause] got to get it let’s get it good and both free throws good for Williams there’s 21 seconds left to play here in the third now here is Seako [Applause] pass to Durant two seconds left count it and the foul it goes on Josh Giddy yeah you know you’re kidding yourself if you think Durant is going to back down from the opponent what a strong finish there and this is his first trip to the line tonight that free throw good from Durant i don’t think you could design a better scorer than Durant i mean range from deep the touch at the rim excellent handling 7 ft tall he does everything you want from your first option and as we conclude the third quarter what a game neither team giving ground leading by a point and time for the short break and stay right where you are the fourth quarter is coming up next [Music] and let’s take this chance now to show you the State Farm assist of the game and how about the floor general ship right here i mean showing us why they’re always in good hands when he’s the man in charge well clearly he’s the guy that stirs the drink for him and that’s how he does it with his dynamite passing skills and with three quarters behind us we start the fourth quarter in what is still anybody’s ball game so with Curry sitting on the bench here’s who Rick Carile’s going with we’ve got Hallebertton Seakum is out there with Durant and it’s Michael Jordan and it’s Turner in at the center position and offensive execution has been beyond great there 63% from the floor in this game the shots good from Gilgish Alexander and good work inside sda will make more room for himself on the perimeter when he can be effective down low hallebertton for three offensive rebound here’s KD oh yes he did five up and five down for him so far i mean he’s just been brilliant today guys and it was the same exact story last time out i wasn’t quite sure if he’d be able to maintain that same level of play i had my doubts coming into this game but consider my doubts disappear and upping the intensity sba forces his way through the contact outside kd pulls up on the elbow that falls nice feed that time from Hallebertton and that’s right in his wheelhouse looking to make an impact when it counts you know they want the ball in his hands here because they trust him to hit all the big shots buries it from three-point range smith 24 points for history in front of him we made three triples in the first half three more since then tell you what you can’t shake your head at that turner with a screen for Jordan back to Turner and he uses the glass on the lane this is all you can do i mean Turner’s height length skill level and he’s got confidence now and that all allows him to score under pressure [Applause] homegrren with a screen on Jordan mr incredible can’t get it to go gone three of five here in the fourth quarter pretty good numbers coming out of the break seakum kicks to Hallebertton outside KD a miss that time would have put him up gone one or two from three-point range here in the fourth homegrren the pass to Mr incredible fires from deep no good that time rare you’ll see him miss such an open look with the teardrop and KD finishes inside kd’s got nine points now in just the second half and over two and a half minutes in the books here in the fourth here is Mr incredible he’s defended by Jordan and he gets the bucket that’s now 26 points for Mr incredible you love how each side has risen to the challenge throughout this one hey defense has taken a back burner secondary on the marquee but who doesn’t love a game like this let’s go i like offense the wide open look for Durant a three-pointer is right on target durant’s got nine points now in the quarter and this is someone that can really hurt you from long range and he did that to a degree in the first half and he’s doing it now here is Mr incredible guarded by Jordan shot clock at six he lobbs it up and the ball goes out of bounds turned over not sure whose fault that was guys but they need to get on the same page here williams he’s checked in for Wiggins gone five of eight shooting as we’ve come down the home stretch in this final quarter attention fans now squad get loud here a moment now to hear from our sideline reporter Hall of Famer David Aldridge david hey Kevin I heard Rick Carile during that last break talking with the team now he was quite encouraging in the huddle he said “Look you’re fighting out there fellas i can see it i need you to keep giving everything you have bring this one home see if they can pull it off guys.” Thanks David [Applause] [Applause] fourth quarter of play and over three and a half minutes have gone by jordan kicks to O’Neal good and it’s Jordan picking up the assist o’neal’s got 11 points here in just the second half gotten four of their six shots to fall so far here in the fourth a pretty nice efficiency there passes it to Mr incredible here’s Watson and another assist for him that makes 15 assists he’s been one step ahead of the defense all game long siakum kickstiel o’neal sets the screen for KD looks for O’Neal gets it to him williams with the block and that one’s good durant they’re doing a really good job of getting the ball inside and attacking the paint that’s an area they have completely dominated well once they recognized the advantage they had inside it made a lot of sense just to continue to attack that area here is Mr incredible and it’s Shaquille O’Neal with the foul o’neal that’s his first foul first team foul substitution on the corner [Applause] here’s [Applause] Watson on it covered by LeBron they get the rebound and that one’s good mr moves mr moves got 40 points second chance points always hurt just not enough effort to block out hey guys standing around spectating i mean you got to get in there and get tough here’s Durant mr incredible pulls it in your Incredibles got 12 rebounds tonight here’s Watson over by LeBron here’s Big Daddy crings the three-pointer big Daddy’s got 11 points here in just the second half defensively you can’t back off that much you don’t want to give up easy threes at this stage of the game outside kd 13 ft away mr incredible pulls it in mr incredible’s got six rebounds in the game mr moves misses gone seven of 13 from the field here in the fourth and a T3 from Curry can’t connect from long distance got three of their six-pointers to fall here in the fourth here’s Mr incredible and it’s sent back by O’Neal sending a statement with that rejection o’neal reminding everybody what a forceful defender he can be snatched up and a good offensive board and he gets the bucket you know this has been a totally different half for him he definitely looks more comfortable now guys mr moves passes to Williams here is Mr incredible kept alive another shot and that one drops 21 points for Big Daddy and they’ve gotten very aggressive on the offensive glass here in the second half getting a lot of second chance o’neal sets the screen for James pass to KD from eight here’s rebounded by Big Daddy gone eight of 14 from the floor here in the fourth quarter mr incredible the pass to Big Daddy they double him with Siako pocket six and there’s the pass to Mr ne offline with his three gone into a funk from downtown in the fourth only one of their five three-pointers has found the bottom of the bucket outside curve Durant for three and the foul called on Pascal Siako and that’ll be his third foul so far he’s putting on a commanding performance here he’s hit two three-pointers in each half now jay Gilus Alexander checked in for Wanabi here’s Mr moves it’s good from Juan Lane mr moves got five points now this quart and he has just been in the flow offensively terrific game he has been the expert pass to Sh [Applause] that one misses gone over and over to the three-point shot in the fourth quarter four of nine here’s Gilas Alexander down the step back J the defense was certainly a little tardy in reacting to the step back there got a disappointing 206 on three-point attempts here on the fourth curry pass it to O’Neal fishes to Durant and he gets the basket officials blowing the whistle so a chance at the line for one more great quarter for his at the offensive end trying to wheel his team back in the game punav checked in for Gilas Alexander [Applause] that’s good from Durant and even though they’re down they are putting on a show at the free throw line yeah they’re making the most of their opportunities at the strip and they’ll need to keep it up to take the lead mr incredible oh drew the foul and almost hit the three-point bucket but he’ll go to the line to shoot three yeah good job trying to get a hand in the face but you’ve got to be more careful especially on the three-point attempt i mean you have to defend that shot without fouling now you give a guy three free throws got to get it [Music] and he hits the first of three [Applause] and he’s good on the second impeccable hook from the line since halftime no misses yet you can’t do much better than that guys and he nails the third their usual strong work at the line has been on display here tonight then again they almost never have an off night at the strike shaq with a screen it’s Curry outside it’s called in by Watson Abbe gone over and over to the three-point shot in the fourth quarter four of nine knocks it loose passes to Mr mo pass to Big Daddy jacks up a three sinks the triple big Daddy’s got eight points in the quarter so many of the plays they’re running designed to create opportunities from deep you know that’s exactly their plan here in the fourth work to find space behind the arc and then bury some threes outside for Jordan la punches a three buries the long range jumper jordan’s got 14 points here in the second half boy he’s making it look really easy right now i expect him to continue to run the offense through him until the defense makes him change plan shots good by Mr incredible so good at getting to his spots and then cashing in making the game look easy outside Jordan now the dish to James three-pointer durant for three good and the assist goes to LeBron lebron’s got his assist totals piling up 11 now for him plenty of drama in this one so far yeah don’t be surprised if it isn’t decided until the final bust i tell you what he earned his money on that foul yeah if you’re going to foul then make sure that you don’t give a chance for the and one at the opponent two shots [Applause] [Applause] he drops the first one that puts them up by five [Applause] [Applause] and so he drops them both it’s a six-point ball game and that will add to a healthy lead after that trip to the free throw line now here’s Curry he’s guarded closer it’s up a three inch with the basket on the assist by Curry lebron delivering in the key moments huge basket from the King here is Mr incredible to the hoop and he finishes nicely on the way back mr incredible’s got 35 in the game really really good at recognizing the gaps and getting the ball to the rim curry way outside mr incredible pulls it in mr incredible scott rebound number eight now on the night big daddy that’s good big Daddy’s got 10 points now just in the sport and that’s just cold blooded right there he’s taking no prisoners guys when you’re this hot it’s elementary let it fly keep staying at it you know at the end of the day size does matter especially on the glass here’s Mr moves guarded by Kurt and they pick up two mr moves got 45 points and credit the whole team it was a focused concerted effort to put this one away yeah what a time to put the hammer down any hope of a comeback diminished and so now a timeout called by Rick Car heat up here [Applause] heat heat [Applause] jordan is doubled shaq gets the curve and again for three the threes coming fast and furious he is scorching the nets now ga tied to the third most three-point field goals in single game playoff history and 10 triples equals Dillard’s buzzer beating performance in 2019 when he waved by to the Thunder team at the line for two Utah first free throw is good and that makes it a seven-point lead [Applause] he’s off on the free throw and able to get that second one to drop in and I’m sure he looked like to have had all of those but he’s still able to pad the lead and they double up Jordan from deep james beyond the arc jordan’s shot is off here’s Mr moves [Applause] and so they get the victory here at home and this win puts them squarely in the driver’s seat in the series up now two zip with all the momentum on their side i mean in fantastic shape right now if they can capitalize on this victory and win game three you can just about put this series to bed you got it that concludes game two of the NBA finals for Greg Anthony Clark Kellogg and David Alden this is Kevin Harland saying thanks for watching as
