Last night, the Golden State Warriors put an end to both LeBron’s and the Cleveland Cavaliers’ championship defense after beating them 129-120 in Game 5 of the NBA Finals. For the fifth time in his illustrious career, LeBron James’ season ended in defeat after a gruelling trip to the final round of the playoffs. LeBron put forth a valiant effort to keep his team’s championship hopes alive, but the overwhelming fire power of the Golden State Warriors was too much for him to ov

It took a historic, record-setting effort but finally, LeBron James and the Cavaliers put together a winning 48 minutes in the NBA Finals. Between LeBron’s historic night and the Cavaliers all-time scoring performance, the Cavaliers were able to use a 137 point effort to hand the Warriors their first loss of the 2017 postseason. With the series heading back to Oakland for Game 5, we are in the exact same place we were a year ago with the series at 3-1 in favor of Golden Stat

If the Cavaliers were going to win a game, it was Game 3. However, with the Golden State Warriors edging the Cavaliers 118-113 in last night’s contest, the NBA Finals look all but over. In 45 minutes last night, LeBron James put forth yet another staggering stat line of 39 PTS, 11 REB, and 9 AST. Although a near 40-point triple-double is hard to beat in terms of impressiveness, it was a different kind of stat that stood out as most shocking – LeBron’s net rating. In 45 and a

If you were just to read the Cavaliers side of the box score, you might have thought they won on Sunday night. After all, a LeBron James 29 point triple-double, 27 points from Kevin Love, 19 point and 7 assists from Irving, 15 team steals and only 9 turnovers, usually spell success for Cleveland. Unfortunately, the Warriors were just so explosive on offense that none of it mattered. Golden State scored 132 points on 52% shooting, with both Kevin Durant and Steph Curry scoring

Game 1 of the NBA Finals didn’t go as planned for LeBron James as the Cleveland Cavaliers fell to the Golden State Warriors 113-91 in disappointing fashion. What started as a tightly knit, back-and-fourth contest quickly became an offensive showcase for the Warriors' dynamic duo, Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry, who finished with 38 and 28 points respectively. Both LeBron and Kyrie Irving had decent games, but neither played well enough to overcome the poor play of their surro

Anyone who tuned into last night's Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals, bore witness (pun intended) to a small piece of history. With a late third quarter triple, LeBron James passed Michael Jordan to become the NBA’s all-time leading scorer in the post-season. LeBron did so using 120 less field goal attempts, although it did take him an additional 33 games. Another note-worthy point is that during Jordan’s career, the first round of the playoffs was decided by a 5-game s

LeBron James finished Tuesday night’s performance with 34 PTS on 56% shooting, adding 5 REB and 6 AST. A cold jump shot, combined with some early foul trouble (4 personal fouls in the first half) kept LeBron on the bench for much of the first half as he went into halftime with just 10 PTS on 5-of-9 shooting. However, with all of the pressure from his poor performance in Game 3 and the added pressure from having four early fouls, LeBron came out after halftime and was sensati

On Sunday night, the Cleveland Cavaliers had the opportunity to increase their series lead over the Boston Celtics to 3-0, on their home court nonetheless. That did not happen. Instead, the Celtics put together one of the gutsiest playoff performances of all time coming back from a 21-point lead on the road, two nights after being blow out by more than 40 points on their own home court. As if that wasn’t impressive enough, the C’s managed to pull off the upset without their b

There is only one word in the English language that truly describes the Cleveland Cavaliers performance in last night’s Game 2 victory over the Boston Celtics… Dominant. During the second minute of the first quarter, Kyrie Irving scored a spinning hook shot to give the Cavs a 2-0 lead. The Cavaliers would hold the lead for the entire game and go on to win 130-86, reaching seven postseason records in the process. Last night marked: The largest win in LeBron’s NBA career The la

After a ten day hiatus, the Cleveland Cavaliers were back in action last night against the Boston Celtics to kick off the Eastern Conference Finals. The Cavs showed no rust whatsoever as they ran out to an early lead, outscoring the Celtics 30-19 in the first quarter, and didn’t look back for the full 48 minutes. LeBron was a force for the full game pouring in 38 points on 58% shooting, adding 9 rebounds and 7 assists in 41 minutes of floor time. This also marked his seventh
