FINALLY!
In a rematch of the 2015 championship, the Cleveland Cavaliers defeat the Golden State Warriors 4 games to 3. It is the Cavaliers first championship.

LeBron James is named MVP of the Finals. He became the first player in NBA history to lead all players in a playoff series in points, rebounds, assists, steals and blocks. Not even Michael, Kareem or Bill Russell did that.
Kyrie Irving, JR Smith, Tristan Thompson, Kevin Love, Richard Jefferson, Iman Shumpert, and Matthew Dellavedova all key contributors. Ty Lue head coach.
