The Cleveland Cavaliers fell to the Golden State Warriors in Game 5 of the NBA Finals, 129-120, on Friday night, however the duo of LeBron James and Kyrie Irving did not go down without a fight.
Irving finished the game with 26 points, two rebounds, six assists, and two steals, while his running mate in James finished the night with a whopping 41 points, 13 rebounds, eight assists, and two steals.
