CLEVELAND (AP) – The Cleveland Cavaliers are likely to be without forward Kevin Love for the crucial Game 3 of the NBA Finals tonight. He continued to be in the NBA concussion protocol and missed practice yesterday after being elbowed in the head in the Game 2 loss to Golden State Sunday. The Cavaliers are down 2-0 in the series after losses at Golden State by a combined 48 points. They will be back on their home court tonight where Cleveland is 7-0 this postseason. Golden State has taken control of the series despite subpar performances from sharpshooters Stephen (STEH’-fehn) Curry and Klay Thompson. Reserves have stepped up to help the Warriors extend their winning streak to five games, after falling behind 3-1 to Oklahoma City in the Western Conference Finals.
