After one half of play in Game 1 of the NBA Finals, the Cleveland Cavaliers and Golden State Warriors are tied at 56, with the Warriors having concluded the half on a 16-5 run. One of the few points the Cavaliers managed came in painful fashion for LeBron James, when the Warriors’ Draymond Green poked him in the eye near the basket and then proceeded to insult James after he went down in obvious pain.
