Basically so I didn’t have any idea the Cavs were 3-1 behind until later on in the video, I know it’s one of those things people would get frustrated at (completely fair) as it that is what makes this story so incredible. I notice around 12-13 minutes into the video, don’t hate meee:) nevertheless what an absolutely incredible video, I love comeback stories like this so damn much

Lavish Luka could you react to the 2019 nba finals story How the warriors lost because of bad luck

[@carterloop5727]

LeBron was born and raised in Ohio and the Cleveland Cavaliers are in Ohio so he watched them growing up

[@hermunkulus]

What made this so significant was: 1) The first championship for the city of Cleveland since 1964 2) The 2016 Cavaliers were the first team in NBA history to ever come back from a 3-1 deficit in the finals. 3) The Warriors put together the greatest regular season record in NBA history. You can make argument that there was also a lot of pressure because LeBron's reasoning for going back to the Cavs (he's also from Ohio) was to win them a championship which he did. Also, he won two championships with the Miami Heat before this.

You gotta add how dominant the golden state warriors were that year aswell. They went 73 - 9 in the regular season the best regular season in nba history and they were were ridiculously good so beating a team 3 games in a row that hadn't lost three games in a row all year was crazy.

[@bobjake8632]

Free throws are regarded as one of the easiest shots in basketball. The average free throw % in the nba is around 75%. They're called FREE throws for a reason. There are some notable exceptions. For example, Shaq was a notoriously poor free throw shooter shooting on 52.7% for his career. Many teams came up with a strategy of just fouling him and forcing him to shoot free throws rather than trying to guard him. This became known as "hack-a-Shaq".

This Finals was everything 1. A seemingly unbeatable team (Warriors) who got the best record in the NBA of all time that season, even now (73-9) 2. LeBron James with his somewhat rag-tag group of players (compared to Warriors stacked roster) 3. LeBron returning to his OG team (Cavs) promising to bring a championship to the team and to the city of Cleveland who hasn't seen a championship trophy since 1964 from any sport 4. Losing against the Warriors the previous year 5. Cavs going down to a 3-1 deficit 6. The Cavs bringing it back and clutching the Finals in Warriors home court and winning the championship for the Cavs and all of Cleveland 7. The first team to come back from a 3-1 deficit in the Finals and beating the best team in the league with the best record ever. This Finals is one of the greatest (coming from a Lakers fan) has such a great story and will go down is one of the most memorable. P.S It would have been even better if the Cavs won in Cleveland but how it played out was basically perfect.

The warriors had the greatest season of all time, as you probably know, going 73-9, and they hadn't lost three games in a row that entire year

[@JIX9ISLER1986]

dude it rigged......every nba result is compromised......

[@talal3c]

best championship of all time. Dirk had a good run in 2011 as well i respect him for that but this was a better one cus of the 3-1 comeback

[@nigelcobbs6813]

This warriors team had the best regular season record of all time this season and also the warriors blew a 3-1 lead in this series.

So on free throws.... They are meant to be the easiest shot in the game. They are only given to you if any of these following things happen : A) you’re fouled while shooting (if you miss the shot, you get one free throw for every point of the shot you took, so if you got fouled and missed a 3 pointer, you get 3 free throws, if you get fouled shooting a 2 pointer you get 2 free throws. If you make the shot you got fouled on then you get just one free throw. That is where the phrase “And-1” comes from) B) the opposing team fouls you while you are in offense and they have 5 or more team fouls for the quarter. In this instance in the NBA you get 2 free throws. C) the opposing team is given a technical foul (arguing with refs, taunting, or calling a timeout when you have no more timeouts) plus with a technical foul (also known as a “Tech” or a “T”) you get the ball along with the free throw. D) the opponents get a flagrant foul (unnecessary contact that can result in just 2 free-throws and ball back, or an ejection and fine, depending on the severity of it.) That is the ways that first come to mind when how you get to shoot free throws. They are easy but not automatic. Especially in tense situations. The best in the league shoot around 90%, while the worst can shoot as low as 20%. The league average is 70%. Also with free throws you can jump. That’s not illegal. As long as your feet do not cross the free throw line before the ball hits the rim. Otherwise the shot is basically cancelled and can’t count, and will not be given a re-do. That’s basically it. If anybody else notices something I’m missing pls lemme know, and if you’ve made it here, damn you are a Warrior

The Warriors also had the best record in NBA history, 73 and 9, beating out Jordan's Bulls who achieved a 72 and 10 record in 96. Also, the Cavs were down 3 games to 1 in the series and had to win 3 in a row which had never been done. Basically, after game 4, nobody in their right mind would have thought the Cavs could win the series.

Greatest sports moment for me ever. EVER.

[@chasestankievech]

Please please react to the most recent champions, the Toronto Raptors. The journey they went to make it to their first ever finals was crazy. Winning four games in a row in the conference finals, beating Philadelphia on a buzzer beater and dethroning the warriors. Such an awesome story. As a Canadian, I was super proud at that moment, knowing how many times that we have been written off and brushed aside, proving everyone wrong. Gave me tears of joy

[@ItsClout2k]

How are free trows the hardest thing lol

[@lennykorchmar]

this game made bron the GOAT💯‼️

[@thelivingmiracle]

I am from Ohio and Im a Cavs fan. I watched this whole game unfold while on vacation and I was almost in tears seeing them win. For LeBron to carry the Cavs to there first ever championship being down 3-1 is unbelievable . And that block that he had in this video is hands down the best block in NBA history

[@amazingstories2737]

Yes 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 please do the mini movies also

[@1waytickettopluto]

Dude you did one of my suggestions! I'm so happy lmao

[@rowenaabia7269]

Thats final between warriors vs cavs is very historoic on 2016 final,all those past year i still watching its all about the promises heroes.

[@masonmeyer9407]

Was in Cleveland that night at the watch party for the game. (My profile pic has been the same on KZbin since)(Kyries game winning 3). That moment of my life will forever be not just the greatest moment of basketball to me, but the greatest day of my life. I’ve never seen a whole city truly come together. Never been in a place so loud, with so many tears. The tension throughout the game is what made it so great too. Walking out of the Q seeing strangers hugging, crying and laughing together was a great moment for me. Showed me how the city of Cleveland really was. We’re grinders down here in Cleveland, we might not always be the best, but we will always show our best effort. (Neglect the current Cavs team, we are still getting things back together since LeBron went to LA

[@masonmeyer9407]

Kyrie has been my favorite player for a while and LeBron has been a legitimate idol to me too. So much respect for that team and the players. Defined all odds

[@GeronFletcher]

The context of this makes it so much crazier. The city of Cleveland is always used as a punchline in the USA as a boring bland city no one wants to go to and they haven’t won a professional sport’s championship since the 1960s in any sport. They have had absolutely horrible luck in every sport. The Lebron who is from the area luckily gets drafted to his hometown team.. leaves, breaks their hearts, comes back and beats the greatest regular season basketball team in nba history in 7 games after being down 3-1 in the series. It’s storybook Ps. Oh and this was the very last game in Oracle arena in Oakland California where they had been for decades. The next year they went to their new stadium across the bridge in San Francisco. Which is it’s own story because Oakland is seen as the black or less rich part of the Bay Area and as soon as the warriors got good again they moved the team back to San Francisco away from the wild Oakland crowd

[@kkoz2363]

As an Akron native and all things Cleveland fan watching this still makes me tear up. Greatest sports moment of my life. I balled my eyes out at a bar in North Carolina.

[@noticetibz4154]

It has to be the single greatest achievement for a player in NBA history.

[@iconic-ghost9883]

This is my top second moment in my nba watching history right below watching Russel Westbrook drop a 50 point triple double

[@Jack-sj9bn]

been waiting for this so long

[@rojeliocastro9733]

game 7 was the only game that series that was decided within 10 points

[@msj8601]

in a span of 4 minutes with curry klay and lebron on the field, a 24 year old kyrie irving scored the only field goal in that span and showed early why he is the clutchest player in the league
