Some Game 4 numbers: DA FUQ???

Sorry for the apparent language, but that's the only way I can describe a couple of these numbers:
  • The Cleveland Cavaliers shot 22 free throws in tonight's first quarter.
  • They scored 49 points in the first quarter of tonight's game, a Finals record for a quarter and the new PLAYOFFS record for any first quarter -- old record 45.  (Playoffs record for any quarter is 51, a 4th quarter by Los Angeles in 1962.) 
  • They scored 86 in the first half, a PLAYOFFS record for a half.  The old record for the entire Playoffs was 83.  Old record for a Finals first half was 79, for any Finals half, 81.
  • The teams combined for 154 points in the first half, a new PLAYOFFS record (old record was 150, old Finals record was 140).
  • Warriors:  27-36 for the game from the line, and Durant had 16 of the attempts (made 15).
  • Cavs:  21-31, meaning they only shot NINE freethrows in the last three quarters?????
  • Yep.  Four in the second quarter, three in the third, two in the fourth -- that includes all the technicals.
DA...

FUQ????

The NBA record for most points in the first quarter of any game is 50.  Set five times, last in 1990.

I am really getting an ugly feeling this is more than just one game here.
