The Greatest Comeback in NBA History


Image result for kyrie Nba game 7June 19,2016 is the most memorable scenario in terms of sports and NBA history and 2016 is the year that the Golden State Warriors breaks the all time record of the Chicago Bulls. Golden State has a record of 73 wins with only 9 losses. But it they don't win the Championship because Cleveland Cavaliers beat them with a memorable comeback in NBA history.
I am a huge Kyrie Irving's fan so I was very happy when he won his first NBA ring and first NBA Championship. I was so happy to see them celebrate while holding their beautiful trophy.
It was the first major sport championship won by a Cleveland-based team in more than 50 years.

If the Warriors won, it would cap off the greatest NBA season ever with a championship topping off a record-breaking 73-9 regular season record. If the Cavs won, they would have pulled the greatest Finals comeback ever, becoming the first team to win the NBA title after trailing, 3-1, in the series. The latter possibility would take the honors as Cleveland outlasted Golden State in easily the closest, most exciting game of the seven-game series.
Golden State led at halftime, 49-42, thanks to an amazing first half by Draymond Green; he had 21 points in the first half, outscoring all players from both teams. He went on to finish the game with 32 points on 11 of 15 shooting, along with 15 rebounds and nine assists.

But James and and Irving took over in the second half, scoring 30 points combined through the final two quarters to lead the Cavs to their third straight victory in the playoff series, capping off the amazing championship comeback feat.
James had a triple-double with 11 rebounds and 11 assists to go along with his 27 points; he was named the Finals MVP, the third time he received the honor in his career. He’s now three of seven in NBA championship appearances.

Warriors fan is shocked because the Warriors blow their 3-1 lead against the Cavs while at the other hand Cavs fan is so happy because it is their first championship in terms of sports.
