Golden State Warriors Versus Cleveland Cavaliers 2017 NBA Finals

Last yr's 7 game thriller saw the hungrier Cavs coming back from 1-3 down to win the series.

The off season saw Warriors signing free agent Kevin Durant, many predicted that the GSW would win the Championship even before the season started. Yes GSW sweep all teams in the playoffs, went 3-0 up, lost to a record breaking Cavs in Game 4.

KD was obviously the hungrier player, not having a ring. The dedication was written all over his face, esp on Game 3's 3 pointer right over LeBron James. Yes, I do agree LBJ is a better overall player, possibly the best player in the league for the last several seasons, but I just don't like him. period.

I was shocked that Starhub wasn't playing the games, leading to a frantic sign upon Eleven Sports, signalling yet another move towards online/mobile/pay-per-view type of coverage. Even though recording is not possible, pauses and 10second fast forward are possible options on the browser!

Game 5 saw ups and downs and finally GSW put the string of baskets in Q4 and Cavs just look defeated.

Congrats to KD on his first ring!
