11:30 pm
>> mark: andre iguodala has played outstanding basketball since inserted into the starting lineup. cavs dare him to make shots. again, daring him to make shots. backing off of him, being aggressive knocking down shots. three-ball corner pocket. making them pay the price for leaving him open. much-needed offense for the warriors. >> mike: a playoff high this year 19 points for iguodala. all-star for the sixers under doug collins several years ago. all-nba player several times. mults pl triple-doubles. tonight, 19 and seven. seven rebounds. they want to get it to curry. thompson is on curry.

11:32 pm
hammered. they win they put on the type of performance that he tried to push the button to get out of them and they've responded. these are the decisions a coach has to make. pat riley, the great hall of fame coach used to talk about these situations and these decisions. >> jeff: absolutely. i still remember we were going to indiana to play the pacers down three games to two and he was talking about changing the offense, because we were having a hard time scoring. and he read this parenting book on the flight out that said, you have to teach your sons when in a fight, hit hard and hit first. what he said to our team is we're playing our competitors tonight. that's who we're playing. everybody who's soft, stay in the locker room. bring the warriors to the floor. >> mike: iguodala's been that and then some. 36 minutes, as we approach five minutes remaining. >> jeff: and both teams are playing seven guys.
11:33 pm
>> mike: livingston trying to post up dellavedova. livingston with the big height advantage. inside to lee -- and lee is fouled. another nice look from shaun livingston. and david lee's going to head back to the line. >> jeff: the defensive versatility and the offensive versatility. the ability to post smaller guards. draw a double-team. make plays off the dribble. and then to be able to guard multiple positions -- what a weapon to have off your bench. and i've said it before mike bob myers deserves a lot of credit for upgrading the back court of this golden state warrior team in this offseason. >> mike: well he did get the credit by getting named the nba executive of the year. livingston signing a three-year deal. the warriors are his ninth team
11:34 pm
he's played for and we talked about the story coming back from the knee injury. he's done it at both ends tonight. 14-point lead for golden state. 4:30 remaining. james out to dellavedova. david lee, the rebound. back-to-back games where lee has contributed. curry dances. gets inside. fouled from behind. shumpert tripped up. that's going to be two on shumpert. only the third team foul against cleveland. draymond green returns with his five fouls. and david lee, nine points five boards, three assists. >> mark: give him credit. stayed ready. and responded when his coach called upon him. and one thing that you can't underestimate is a diving big man. a big man getting in front of the rim, willing to get fouled willing to finish. it completes their offense.
11:35 pm
>> mike: curry traveled. good pressure from dellavedova. still 4:19 remaining. it's been a different feel tonight with golden state leading most of the game. last lead from cleveland was in the first quarter. just the opposite of the previous game where the cavaliers won wire to wire. >> mark: i thought a statement was made to start the game when the cavs tried to post up mozgov and tristan thompson. took them out of character. and they have not established a rhythm offensively since then. >> mike: off the turnover coming up on four minutes remaining. crowd has been quiet. green. throws it up livingston finishes it off. beautiful pass from green. he's got six assists in his best game so far of these finals. >> jeff: it's not often that lebron james gets outplayed, mike. but andre iguodala has won that match-up tonight. >> mike: mozgov.
11:36 pm
lost it. the double-team. and here comes livingston again. livingston drives down the lane -- james reaches in and picks up his fifth foul. and shaun livingston says "we're good," as he's going to go the line. his team right now, 16-point lead with 3:30 to play. some of the fans starting to head for the exits. >> mark: some people might say, lebron's played a lot of minutes, fatigue is setting in -- no there's no excuse. the great ones, there's no excuse. going to give you plays when you make historic numbers through the first three games of the finals. well tonight, you didn't get it done. accept it and look forward to going on the road and see if your act travels. >> mike: meanwhile, going on the road for golden state has been good all season. they were the best road team in the regular season. and much like the series in the conference semifinals against memphis, down 2-1, playing a game four on the road they've come out with one of their better performances. >> mark: you know what i think about, coach?
11:37 pm
reggie miller. patrick ewing. charles barkley. malone. stockton. people would say, those guys aren't champions. i'd call those people fools. because you got guys with jewelry that don't have an impact. and those guys were absolute warriors. >> jeff: there are true champions who won championships and there are guys who won championships who have just been on championship teams. and then there's some guys that are true champions who just were not on the right team at the right time against the right opponents. and we've played with and against those type of guys. >> mike: curry, scoop lay-up is good. 22 for curry. time-out, cleveland. and the largest lead of the night. and the curry family pleased with the results. 3:06 remaining. the warriors in control here in game four. golden state struggling the last two games. they had not lost three consecutive games all season
11:38 pm
long. curry, dancing in the paint. the mvp flips it up. and golden state feeling good as they're about to tie up the nba finals. now you can take bold, smooth cocktail taste... wherever the night takes you. ("everywhere i go" by new politics plays throughout) introducing new bud light mixxtail. now available in three flavors: long island iced tea hurricane and firewalker. bring the bar with bud light mixxtail.

11:40 pm
>> mike: crowd has thinned out. "sportscenter" on espn live here in cleveland after the game. john anderson and john buccigross break down game four
11:41 pm
bring you full postgame coverage. >> jeff: well, very good defense tonight by the warriors. lebron james, 7 for 22. individually, they played well. iguodala was a stalwart. and lebron james had a game that most would die for, mike. but for him, was below average. >> mike: he was human tonight, as kendrick perkins checks in for the first time of the finals. joe harris as well. mike miller's in the game. james jones can't connect. and the rebound, draymond green. so again, much like they did in the memphis series golden state down two games to one, staring at a game four on the road could have put them in a three-one deficit and once again, they respond with a huge road performance. green now with 17 points most he's scored in these finals. he also has seven rebounds and six assists.
11:42 pm
throw in a couple of steals, as well. j.r. smith. and a rough shooting night for smith. 2 for 12 overall. and 0 for 8 from downtown. and steve kerr's going to put in his subs, call a 20-second time-out as we check in with doris. hey, doris. >> doris: hey, mike. in a hostile environment, the golden state warriors as they did in the memphis series responded in a big way. one of the things that shaun livingston and i talked about was, one they are finally comfortable with adversity. understanding what it takes to overcome in tough circumstances. we'll see you on the other side. kitten in the tree. fix the pipes. very good. arrest that leprachaun. and limbo. your ballon's getting away. the robot.
11:43 pm
walker texas ranger. sorry kev. did it stay tucked? yup. yeah. the new stay tucked crew. we tested it so you know it works. >> mike: lebron james playing another 41 minutes, but his team will fall here in game four, as golden state now, as leandro barbosa comes into the game. and both teams have emptied their benches. mo speights throws one up. he wanted a foul. such an impressive road victory. now both teams have won on the road. two of the hardest places to win in the nba, oracle arena and here at quicken loans. the cavaliers winning game two
11:44 pm
at oracle and the warriors winning game four here in quicken loans arena. perkins, the former celtic champion, misses that. >> mark: one thing i disagree with steve kerr before the game he talked about this not being a must-win. i understand not putting pressure on your team but to me this was absolutely a must-win game for the warriors. you don't want to go down 3-1 to the best player in the world. >> mike: they played with that type of desperation, mark. though remember cleveland came out and threw the first punch. it was 7-0. building was going crazy. this warriors team settled down and by the end of the first quarter, after trailing 7-0 to start the game they were up by seven and scored 31 points in the first period to set the tone for the game. much different scenario than games two and three.
11:45 pm
some chants of "warriors" for the golden state fans here in attendance attendance. not many of them. the sellout crowd wearing their cavs t-shirts. hoping for a big celebration like the other night, but golden state spoils that. and joe harris the rookie from virginia, going 1 of 2 from the line as we come up on a minute remaining. well games two and three, so much about cleveland's defense. golden state's defense holding the cavaliers to 33% shooting as barbosa misses perkins, the rebound. and a key stat for golden state tonight, just seven turnovers in the game. >> jeff: but the warriors have held the cavs to really bad shooting. over and over again. and this is the difference. in wins we overlook it.
11:46 pm
in losses you say they got to do better. >> mike: again, an extra day off between games four and five. next one will not be until sunday night. >> mark: as a fan of the game though you got to be thrilled the way this series has played out thus far. i mean great stories and both teams have battled. and now, it gets interesting. >> mike: adjustments made. marks as s mark, as you just mentioned moments ago, a bold lineup change by steve kerr. andre iguodala first start of the season. bogut wound up playing just three minutes. that turned out to be a huge move. iguodala the most points he scored all year. 22 points. also had eight rebounds and jeff as you pointed out, his defense on lebron james. >> jeff: yeah, terrific. again, you find out -- coaches
11:47 pm
can tell you all they want, mike but you find out who they trust by who they play. >> mike: he trusted that man, the veteran with a fantastic performance. many now heading for the cleveland night, disappointed with the results. they'll see their team again. that will be next tuesday, game six, back here at quicken loans arena. perkins shot blocked by speights. and now the warriors can dribble it out. there will be at least a game six in these nba finals as golden state bounces back in a big way and avoids their first three-game losing streak of the entire season. and these nba finals are tied up at two games apiece.
11:48 pm
lebron james and the cavs lose at home. they had been 27-2 in their last 29 home games. only their second home loss of the playoffs. the only other team to beat them were the bulls in the second round. that was in game one. as they have been magnificent here on their home floor, not the case tonight, as golden state gets another impressive road win. andre iguodala the star for the warriors, he's with doris. >> doris: andre, what affect did that lineup change have on your ability to even this series? >> well we found something we liked in our pick and roll sets and we wanted to speed up the pace a little bit. the games we lost, the whole series we haven't been able to get the numbers we wanted. we haven't been able to put up the points. hey, let's throw a wrinkle in it see how it works. >> doris: not often someone goes head to head with lebron and is able to hold his own. how are you trying to manage that match-up? >> well we've been going against each other for a decade.
11:49 pm
we had some really good battles. and, you know best player in the world for a reason he's got a lot of talent. he's very blessed. we got a lot of blessed guys as well. this is a great opportunity for everybody to show what they can do on the court. >> doris: what signs are you seeing that your depth is taking its toll in this series? >> well we've seen it all year. every team we go up against, we have strength in numbers. i think we have a first giant and a second unit coming at you with the same type of speed, high i.q. moving the ball. it's hard to keep up with us and we're going to try to keep it going. >> doris: thank you, andre. congratulations. mike? >> mike: all right, doris. a big fourth quarter. they outscore cleveland 27-12 in that fourth quarter. an impressive road win, jeff. >> jeff: sure was. i think going forward, david blatt may have to start resting lebron earlier because every time they start the fourth quarter, the warriors are going on a run and it really puts them
11:50 pm
in a hole. >> mike: mark because of the thinness of the roster with all the guys hurt it showed tonight. they looked a little tired tonight. >> mark: putting a demand on their body. the great ones find a way to get it done. >> mike: superb performance from golden state. final score, 103-82 to tie the series at two games apiece. for mark jackson, jeff van gundy, doris burke, our abc crew mike breen saying thanks so much for watching abc, home of the nba finals. we'll see you sunday for game five of the nba finals at 8:00 p.m. eastern on abc. ht? what about a "win-win-win"? pick up the limited edition metallic droid turbo by motorola. water-repellent. up to 48-hour battery life and ballistic nylon back. that's your first "win." plus, it's only on verizon.
