Kyrie Irving re-injured his left knee in Game 1 of the NBA Finals and an MRI just revealed a fractured kneecap. Recovery time is three to four months. He will miss the remainder of the NBA Finals.
The Cavs had a chance to steal Game 1 on the road, but drew up a bad play at the end of regulation, and lost in overtime. And they lost Irving.
The only question left: Do the Cavs win one game in this series?
