Good morning. We turn now to Cleveland.

Good morning. Let’s basketball.

GAME 3! 9 PM ET ON ABC.

THE PEST: Rodger Sherman on how Matthew Dellavedova annoyed the hell out of Stephen Curry in Game 2. Rodger also wrote about Cleveland’s razor-thin margin for error.

MORTAL AND AMAZING: Bethlehem Shoals wrote a wonderful piece on LeBron showing more than ever that he is human and superhuman at the same time.

ACCURATE: This weatherman got mighty worked up about the lack of calls LeBron received down the stretch.

THE COOKBOOK: Dan Rubenstein has a recipe for NBA championships. He’s the sports version of Jacques Pepin.

CONTROL: Ken Berger on LeBron’s immense control of what the Cavaliers are doing.

HIS INNER MJ: I enjoyed Howard Beck on LeBron channeling his inner MJ in Game 2.

MYTHBUSTED: Nate Silver busts the myth that teams that shoot lots of threes are less stable.

WILL SF BE LOUD? David Aldridge’s Morning Tip considers whether the Warriors will lose a big advantage by moving into a new gym.

5 THINGS: Steve Aschburner’s five things we learned for Game 2.

NEAT: The ratings on these NBA Finals have been spectacular. Ban the Spurs! (Even though the Spurs are as fun to watch as any team.)

HMM: Kevin O’Connor makes the case that D’Angelo Russell is a much better prospect than Emmanuel Mudiay.

MAD: Jahlil Okafor is not pleased that everyone is dissing his defensive acumen.

INTERESTING: How an NBA playoffs basketball is made and delivered to the game. PSST SOME PLAYERS LIKE DEFLATED BALLS!

MEME THIS, MOTHERF---ERS: Michael Jordan can palm a good-sized pumpkin.

THE GOOD LIFE: Kim Kardashian West rented out STAPLES Center for Kanye’s birthday so that he and his friends could play pickup. At least someone in L.A. had a good time at the arena this year ...

NEAT: Dwight Howard got a car with Flash branding, appropriating another superhero for which an NBA player has already unofficially laid claim. C’mon Dwight, just call yourself Power Man. It’s your comic-NBA crossover destiny!

DRAGAN BENDER! That’s a European draft prospect’s real name. Dragan Bender! Ricky O’Donnell has the lowdown. Dragan Bender!

OF COURSE: There is talk about the Knicks moving down in the draft.

SPEAKING OF THE DRAFT PART 1: Denver Stiffs is doing a deeply considered community mock.

SPEAKING OF THE DRAFT PART 2: This FanSpeak tool allows fans to simulate the draft to see who might be available for their team. Keep trying until you get Karl-Anthony Towns, Knicks fans!

GOLF, BUT: Scarface is a serious, serious golfer.

A MOST CONVINCING ARGUMENT: Hanif Willis-Abdurraqib brilliantly argues that “Trap Queen” is our generation’s greatest love song.

Happy Tuesday. See you next time.
