“Our names are etched forever in NBA history.” 💯
Kyrie Irving let all his emotions out after helping Cleveland win their first NBA championship in franchise history 🏆
The 73-win Warriors entered the Finals as the winningest team in NBA history, while Cleveland carried a 52-year championship drought.
On this day in 2016, Cleveland completed the first 3-1 comeback in NBA Finals history, winning three straight to capture its first championship 🏆
Spike Lee called Michael Jordan after the Knicks won:
“We haven’t talked in a minute. The New York Knicks are world champions. Call me back! Orange and blue skies! Wassup Mike!”
