Through the first three games of the series, Timofey Mozgov has thoroughly outplayed Andrew Bogut. One of the main problems so far with the Warriors offense has been that the Cavaliers can leave Bogut alone and help out on the Warriors perimeter players.

The Warriors faced little adversity on way to their remarkable 67-15 season. Now, without question, they face some extreme adversity and an incredibly tough task. The Cavaliers are a different team at home and proved that in Game 3. The Warriors were the best team in the NBA for a reason, and they'll look like it again on Thursday.
