Irving saves his best for when Cavs face Finals elimination
“It causes too much stress, man”. I’m sure that every Taco Bell will be packed for that.

Whether it’s extending a season with a pair of 40-point performances or hitting the series-deciding 3-pointer in a Game 7 win previous year, Irving’s already stellar game has risen to another level whenever the Cavs have faced elimination.
“It’s a time to definitely show everything that you’re made of in those moments”, Irving said Sunday on the eve of another elimination game with Cleveland trailing the Warriors 3-1 in the NBA Finals. Zero. That’s 0-126.
The more physical play appeared to be just the thing to get Cavs power forward Tristan Thompson unleashed. But it’s not as if this Cleveland team isn’t already well versed in overcoming exceedingly huge odds.
“If you don’t do something well, they will make you pay for it, so we have to be 20 times better in this building and we understand that”.
“This year’s a totally different year”.
“We feel like any game that we walk on the floor we have a great game plan and we expect to win”.
“When we’re making shots and playing with pace we’re a tough team to beat”.
But beyond their resiliency, the Cavs have displayed a mental toughness through all kinds of adversity.
Okay, so maybe the pressure isn’t as much on the Warriors as it seems.
It’s safe to assume that most Warriors fans didn’t see this coming and now the world must wait for another game for an outcome.
Before the historic Cleveland Cavaliers shooting performance, there was a feeling the Golden State Warriors would cap off the revenge tour by annihilating their rival in a ideal postseason. “If you need extra motivation to go close out in five, you’re screwed, because that won’t be enough motivation”. The Warriors players must remain calm and not give up any extra points that could be the difference at the end of the game.

When the Warriors take the floor Monday night for Game 5 of the NBA Finals, they’ll do so with the lessons of Game 4 still etched on their minds.
“They can match the effort they gave”, Draymond Green said.
Irving said he scans social media for such slights as premature celebration talk. But we knew what we were faced with. “If your motivation is other people, then you’re probably doing this for the wrong reasons”.
But like past year, when they not only lost Game 5 at home but also the winner-take-all Game 7, the Warriors promise to take the court Monday night taking nothing for granted. “That’s just how I’m built”. “I actually wasn’t thinking about that until you asked me”, Curry said replied when asked about another 3-1 finals lead.
A year later the situation is exactly as it was. Shot during the All-Star game in New Orleans back in February, the ESPN produced episode called “The Shop” premiered on Friday, June 9 and released on James’ multimedia platform, Uninterrupted. “So I think game four, talking trash, being physical, whatever you got to do to try to get that edge to win, you got to do it”.

“Listen, at the end of the day, we want to just try to put ourself in position to play another game, and we did that tonight and hopefully we can do it Monday night where we can come back here”, James said.
