Stephen Curry scored a NBA Finals record nine 3-pointers as the Golden State Warriors romped Cleveland Cavaliers 122-103 in Game 2 to take a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven series.
The fact that 88% of the teams that took a 2-0 lead eventually went on to win the NBA title backs the Warriors as they head to Cleveland for games three and four on Wednesday and Friday.
