I probably won't watch the game. But I kind of hope the Cavaliers win.

Congratulations and kudos to the Cleveland Cavaliers in winning their first NBA title and the first pro sports championship for the city of Cleveland since 1964, all the while winning two road games and for the first time winning the title after being down 3-1 in the series and trailing game 7 at halftime. :thup: Game 7 couldn't be as more dramatic with the game tied deadlock at 89-89 with 4 minutes to go, then 3 minutes to go, then 2 minutes to go, then 1 minute to go without any team scoring.....and then usually in this kind of situation the home team will think of a way to score.....but not this time as Kyrie Irving ended the tie with a 3-pointer to give the Cavaliers the lead for good, and LeBron James giving insurance by scoring 1 of 2 free throws for the 93-89 win.

Good day for this sports fan. Saw part of the U.S. Open golf tournament. Had seen an interview with Dustin Johnson previously. He seemed humble and not destroyed by earlier failures. Nice to see that he won. :thup:

Was kind of hoping for LeBron and the Cavs to win, although I like Curry and the Warriors also.

Good for Cleveland fans. Good for LeBron. :thup:

On the same day that the Cleveland Indians win too in extra innings, and a double bad day for Oakland as well with the Athletics losing as well and the Bay Area was still recovering from the home loss by the Sharks, and now their Warriors lose the deciding game at home as well. :puke: :bawl:

I wonder if the city of Cleveland would start a sports celebration riot after the win which is what certain cities would do in the past. Apparently the crowd was in control in Cleveland.

Good highlights including the 3-pointer less than a minute left that broke the deadlock and put the Cavaliers up for good.
