I am in Florida where nobody should care about the Cavs and there are dozens of people screaming and cheering outside at the resort this is unreal. I was shaking the entire fourth quarter holy shit. Cleveland won something.

Miami still loves Lebron.

I really wanted the miracle 73-9 regular season with a championship but man Cavs just played better down the stretch than the Warriors.

Was a close game up until the last minute of the 4th. Warriors with one full timeout left and no timeout was called after Kyrie landed a clutch 3pointer. Left the warriors to spend their entire possession shaken and unable to score. I dont want to blame the coach but Kerr really shouldve taken the damn timeout.

Props to LBJ bringing Cleveland their first championship though

Why is this a particularly big deal exactly?

If youre asking why Cleveland winning is a big deal is because its the Cavalier's first championship in the franchise and Cleveland's first championship in any major sport in the last 50 years. Their "curse" is finally broken

Aren't there 40-something teams in the conferences and stuff? With how dominant some teams are, there are probably a lot of other cities who haven't won something in sports in ages?

I think it was just the Clippers and Suns that took as long as Cleveland to get a championship title.

It's a happy time to be from Cleveland

GSW had a 73-9 regular season record (compare this to the 73-10 of MJ's Bulls) and were considered one of the strongest teams ever both defensively and offensively. They were up 3-1 in the series, and the Cavs won 3 in a row, 2 of them at Oracle Arena (GSW's home court where they've been virtually undefeated) to win the series. No team has ever come back from 3-1. Oh, and Lebron led the series in every single stat - point, rebounds, blocks, assist. It's also a heck of a story because he's finally brought Cleveland a championship which is what he went back to Cleveland to do. On top of that, the Cavs lost to the Warriors in the finals last year with their second best player (Irving) out though Lrbron carried them to victories almost singlehandedly.

tl;dr Disney too stronk
