His team may have momentum on its side following Friday's Game 4 victory, but LeBron James is well aware that winning on the road will be key to a Cavaliers comeback.

After watching Cleveland get blown out in the first two games at Oracle Arena, the three-time champion believes the Cavaliers will need to play at a much higher level in Game 5 if they're to have any chance of extending the series.

"We didn't play well in Game 1 or Game 2," LeBron told reporters, according to ASAP Sports. "So we have watched the film, we see what we didn't do well. And if you don't do something well, they will make you pay for it. So we have to be 20 times better in this building, and we understand that."

Despite LeBron's dominant play, the Cavaliers struggled to keep up with the mighty Warriors earlier in the series, losing the first two contests by an average of 20.5 points.
