Literally, the way you lose is by playing poorly, or at least not as well as the other team.
The Celtics bring a consistent defensive effort and can go cold or stagnant on offense. The Warriors go up and down with their defensive effort, and they only score enough to win when they play with it.
The Warriors are the only team in the series to hold an opponent under 98 and they have done it twice. They also are the only team to have given up over 115 and they have done it twice. Suggests the games in these Finals are decided based on how much intensity the Warriors play with on defense.
