Kyrie Irving was the match-winner again as the Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Golden State Warriors 109-108 during the NBA’s Christmas Day schedule.
Irving, who scored the go-ahead three-pointer when the two teams met in game seven of last season’s NBA Finals, settled the first meeting between the sides since then by hitting a jumper with three seconds left.
However, apart from the last-gasp drama, the game also featured an enthralling duel between LeBron James and Kevin Durant.
This video uploaded to the NBA’s official YouTube channel focuses on the battle between the two forwards.
The two teams lead their respective conferences and have contested the last two Finals, with last year’s series seeing the Cavaliers overcome a 3-1 deficit on their way to the championship.
