One of my favorite moments as a basketball fan. I've been watching the NBA Since 1996. Cleveland really deserved to win that championship in 2016

Man I remember where I was watching that game.

My palms were so sweaty.

Then Kyrie hits the 3 I knew we had it.

Than the Bron free throw dagger it was ours :pimp:

No one would score for a while until Kyrie hit the shot. It was only a matter of time before something went in after various bricks from both sides. Surprised none of the coaches called for time.

Series turned around when Tristan Thompson and the rest started bullying the warriors and Draymond, you had Richard Jefferson who made a serious impact still producing, gritty play and top notch leadership.

Lebron otoh was already giving up looking for fights like a child lol it was strange, aggressive behavior.

Sucks the Warriors recruited KD after failing to win an NBA championship in 2016. It would have been a great rivalry if KD ain't a bitch.

Braindead casual: 'that 73-win warriors team is overrated'

Also braindead casual: 'stephen curry is the best player of his generation (2010s)'

Can't have it both ways. :sleeping

LeBron beats the 73 wins Golden State Warriors in the 2016 NBA Final. He lead the first comebacks from 3-1 in NBA Final history, and he lead both teams in every stat. This was the Cleveland Cavaliers first championships in the history.

Unprecedented Help


1) 6 straight preseason favorites (11-16')

2) Sidekick outplaying league MVP

3) 3 franchise players from same conference teaming up (1 franchise player for 16' Warriors)


The media's fraud was pretending that this unprecedented advantage wasn't something that needed to be overcome with another unprecedented advantage (KD's Warriors).. They pretended that Lebron's teams were normal and KD was stacking the deck, when in reality the deck was already stacked by Lebron, so KD was just responding in kind.. Both Lebron and KD enjoyed unprecedented advantages, but Lebron's lasted for longer (6 years).

3 points in 3 minutes ... and one free throw....
Talk about pressure.
Look who was on court.. 5 HOF'ers
Bron with awesome block ..
Kyrie talked himself into taking shot.

(90%) of NBA players could not take that pressure.

^^^ Wow, so if Lebron is still worse than 10% of the NBA at clutch, then he's barely top 1000 all-time in clutch.

Everyone witnessed Kyrie provide the unprecedented help of outplaying the league MVP and hitting the winner in his face - Kyrie was the legend of that series, but it's misreported by media (Klutch).. Lebron actually wet the bed with 24 and 6 TO's to get a 1-3 deficit before Silver and Kyrie saved him, literally.
