Cavaliers: Irving, Hansen, Tucker, TT, Garnett
Warriors: Curry, Thompson, Barnes, Green, Bo Gote
Except for Irving, the starting lineups of both teams haven't changed much since last season's finals.
The biggest reinforcement for the Warriors this summer was signing Varejao, who had been kicked out for losing his utility, once a loyal minion of James.
Moreover, in order to renew Green's contract, the Warriors even sent David Lee to Boston, which was an important reason why outsiders were pessimistic about their defending the championship this season.
TT won the jump ball against Bo Gote, giving the Cavaliers the first offensive opportunity and officially kicking off the game.
The game had barely started when the whistle blew, calling TT for an offensive foul.
It wasn't a biased call, but rather that TT and Green were too aggressive in their off-ball confrontation.
On one hand, his body was too excited; on the other hand, he had always been annoyed by Green.
