Cavs 114, Hawks 111 OT; Jason Lloyd's 37 thoughts on rings, Delly and LeBron's magnificent night

1. Before these playoffs began, before Kevin Love had his arm yanked out, Kyrie Irving’s knee gave out and Matthew Dellavedova became known as #DirtyDelly, LeBron James showed up to the Cavs’ first playoff practice with his two championship rings.
