LeBron James will have his chance for revenge and redemption.
James, who has the Cavaliers in their third NBA Finals and seeking their first championship, will lead his team against the Golden State Warriors, who won last season’s title — and on Cleveland’s home floor, to boot. The Cavaliers’ loss was no fault of LeBron’s, though, as he led all scorers in that series with 35.8 points, 13.3 rebounds and 8.8 assists per game.
The Warriors displayed their championship mettle in this year’s Western Conference finals, rallying past the Oklahoma City Thunder in seven games after trailing 3-1 in the series. Stephen Curry, who averaged 26 points per game in the last year’s Finals, again has Golden State in position to win the title.
Game 1 is scheduled for Thursday night in Oakland, Calif., and you can see the dates, times and TV information for every game in the best-of-seven series below.
