The NBA Finals 2015 starts on Thursday night with the Cleveland Cavaliers going on the road to take on the Golden State Warriors at the ORACLE Arena in Oakland, California. This should be an intriguing match up between easily the best two teams this postseason. Game 1 has a scheduled start time of 9 p.m. ET and can be watched on TV on the ABC network, or online through live stream via the link provided below.

The Warriors have come so far from the team that was fighting around in the basement of the league when Stephen Curry first started with them as a rookie. Curry has become this year's NBA MVP and the Warriors posted a league topping 67 wins through the regular season.

Golden State will be favorites to claim the win at home in Game 1, as they have only lost three times all season long at the ORACLE Arena.

But records matter for little when things come down to the NBA Finals, and LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers refuse to be spooked by that excellent record at the ORCALE.

James has said, "I've been in so many loud arenas. This is going to be one of them. I've played in OKC in the (2012) finals to start off the series. I've played in Boston. I've played in Detroit when they were in their heyday. I've played in Chicago in 2011 to open up the Eastern Conference finals. I've played in San Antonio."

He added, "So I've been in some very loud buildings and this, obviously, I know tomorrow is going to be one of them. But I don't add too much pressure on it. You just go out and you just try to play."

James also said, "For me as leader of the team, it's my job to lead the guys and to perform well. At the end of the day, win, lose or draw, that's all I can ask out of myself and ask out of my guys, and we'll do that."
