Warriors must learn quickly from humbling NBA Finals defeat (AFP)

Defending NBA champion Golden State Warriors must rebound quickly to prevent the Cleveland Cavaliers from pulling level in the NBA Finals, after their worst playoff loss in years. The Cavaliers ripped Golden State 120-90 Wednesday, trimming their deficit in the best-of-seven series to 2-1 entering game four Friday at Cleveland with game five Monday at Oakland, California. "We've been able to bounce back pretty quick because we can turn the page and understand we're still in good position," said Warriors guard Stephen Curry, the NBA Most Valuable Player.
