We watch so many basketball games that we expect a team to never divert much from the median. That’s why the postseason is so fun. You can see players start to simply try harder on the court, and coaches start to game-plan against specific player weaknesses mercilessly. This is why the NBA Finals are even a cut above the postseason itself. It doesn’t matter if you’re LeBron James, Stephen Curry, or Kevin Durant, the first 5 minutes of any first Finals games is a frantically sloppy effort from both teams, culminating into a fantastic amalgamation of pure fun. The Golden State Warriors, on Tuesday night Game 2 against the New Orleans Pelicans, were simply entertainment with Steph back in the fold.
