Update (4:03pm): Klay Thompson is available to play in Game 2 of the NBA Finals; Andre Iguodala has been ruled out.

OAKLAND -- While a victory over the Cavaliers in Game 2 of the NBA Finals Sunday would put the Warriors halfway to a second consecutive title, a loss would immediately transfer homecourt advantage to Cleveland.

Pregame coverage on NBC Sports Bay Area begins at 3 p.m., with postgame coverage immediately after the final horn. Tipoff of the ABC telecast is scheduled for 5 p.m.

In a series thought to be lacking drama, there was plenty as the Warriors took a 1-0 series lead in Game 1. There was the overturned charge call on a Kevin Durant drive, the brain cramp by Cavs guard JR Smith, the flagrant foul call against Cavs big man Tristan Thompson and his ensuing altercation with Draymond Green.

Listening to members of both teams, Game 2 might be even more intense.

BETTING LINE:

Warriors by 11.5

MATCHUP TO WATCH:

Kevin Durant vs. LeBron James: James won the individual battle in Game 1, pouring in 51 points, adding eight assists and eight rebounds. The Warriors would like to lower James’ scoring without allowing him to find teammates for easy buckets. Durant will be a primary defender, and he’ll have to be more engaged and disciplined than in Game 1. On the other side, Durant will have lots of opportunities to score. If the two have comparable stats, it’s a big win for the Warriors.

INJURY REPORT:

Warriors: G Pat McCaw (lumbar spine contusion) is available to play. G Klay Thompson (L lateral leg contusion) is available to play. F Andre Iguodala (L lateral leg contusion) is out.

Cavaliers: No injuries listed.

GAME OFFICIALS:

Mike Callahan (crew chief), David Guthrie, Derrick Stafford, Tom Washington (alternate)

THE TALLY:

Game 1: Warriors 124, Cavaliers 114 (OT) in Oakland

ROAD TO THE FINALS:

Warriors: Defeated San Antonio in five games in the first round, defeated New Orleans in five games in the conference semifinals, defeated Houston in seven games in the Western Conference Finals.

Cavaliers: Defeated Indiana in seven games in the first round, defeated Toronto in four games in the conference semifinals, defeated Boston in seven games in the Eastern Conference Finals.

SERIES HISTORY:

The Warriors won both meetings in the regular season, 99-92 on Dec. 25 at Oracle Arena and 118-108 on Jan. 15 at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland. The Warriors won the 2015 Finals in six games, the Cavs took the 2016 Finals in seven and the Warriors triumphed in five games in the 2017 Finals.

THREE THINGS TO WATCH:

WARRIORS WINGS: With Iguodala expected to miss his sixth straight game and Thompson’s availability uncertain, the Warriors may need a bit more of Shaun Livingston while also getting contributions from Nick Young. If Thompson can’t go, either Pat McCaw or Quinn Cook -- or both -- can expect a bump in minutes.

THE GLASS: Though the Cavaliers owned the glass in the first half of Game 1, outrebounding the Warriors 25-12, things evened out after halftime. Still, Cleveland put up 13 more second- and third-chance shots (19-6) than the Warriors and outscored them 21-10. If the Warriors can’t do a better job, they’ll pay a price.

THE LEADS: Not until OT of Game 1 did the Warriors go for the jugular. They trailed most of the first half. They built three second-half leads of at least seven, with the Cavs wiping out all three. They are 7-1 this postseason in games decided by fewer than 10 points, 3-5 in games decided by more than 10. Take note.
