The Cavs struggled in Game 2 as the Warriors defended well and made it difficult for James to repeat his feats from Game 1. The King finished the night with 29 points, 13 assists and 9 rebounds while Kevin Love finished with 22 points, 1 assist and 10 rebounds.

The rest of the Cavs continued to struggle as they have all season and they will now feel tremendous pressure going into Game 3. James has carried the team on his shoulders and has used his great confidence to help the Cavs rebound from a number of tough situations. He hasn’t given up but needs his team to come together and provide more support in both
defense and offense.

Those views were echoed by numerous NBA analysts and former players during Game 2.

NBA veteran Jamal Crawford tweeted

The Cavs will have home support in Game 3 which is set to take place in Cleveland on Wednesday.
