The Drought is No More

"I gave everything I had. I put my heart and my blood and my sweat and my tears into this game. Against all odds... Cleveland... This is for you!" — LeBron James

The curse is over. The drought has been drenched. The city of Cleveland has its first major sports championship since January of 1964 as the Cavaliers topped the Golden State Warriors in Game 7 of the NBA Finals, 93-89.

LeBron James led the Cavs with 27 points, 11 rebounds, 11 assists, two steals and three blocked shots, leading Cleveland to become the first team in the history of the NBA to overcome a 3-1 deficit in the Finals.
