The 2018 NBA Finals begin Thursday, May 31, when the Cleveland Cavaliers visit the Golden State Warriors. Here’s how to watch.
For the fourth straight season, the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Golden State Warriors will battle it out in the NBA Finals.
It wasn’t as easy as it’s been in the past for both of these teams to make it here as each had to go through grueling seven-game series in the Conference Finals but here we are again. After beating the Houston Rockets on the road on Monday night behind 34 points from Kevin Durant and 27 from Steph Curry, the Warriors will welcome LeBron James, who put his teammates on his back against the Boston Celtics to reach his eighth consecutive NBA Finals, and the Cavs to Oracle Arena on Thursday night for Game 1 on ABC.
The Warriors, looking to claim their second consecutive title and third in four years, are the heavy favorites coming into this series as most think LeBron James just doesn’t have enough help to claim his fourth NBA championship. It will certainly be interesting to see how things play out.
