The Cleveland Cavs put up a good fight but let’s face it, the Golden State Warriors were just loaded with a superteam. Cavs came close but lost game 5 129-120 on Monday.
Warriors have won 2 out of the last 3 NBA Finals and went on a 16-1 from the playoffs to the championship (Cavs beating them in Game 4). Kevin Durant leads the team with 39 points (was Finals MVP) but it was a team effort that was lacking from Cleveland.
James had 41 points and became the first player to average a triple-double during the Finals. However, with missed opportunities on offense and allowing easy shots on defense, a loss was bound to happen.
Looking into the offseason look out for Cleveland to shop for a big name superstar to be able to give GSW a run for their money. Magic will keep you up to date with Cavs news leading up to the preseason.
