This outcome was orchestrated by the NBA who desperately wanted a stand alone ring for Lebron, the biggest, crybaby quitter in sports. It was supposed to happen last year but the upstart Warriors spoiled the party.

The suspension of one of their stand out players was a series changer and they knew it. Then Andrew Bogut was hurt in a game that should have never been played.

Warriors did not choke, they got cut off at the knees. This is a team that won 73 games in the season, not losing two in a row much less three.

Disgusting but that’s sports nowadays.

Dead-on right. All drama designed to play to the masses and manipulate emotions and opinions. What a crock of sh*t.

I won't disagree with anything you say. It did seem at times as if a narrative had been written. But you know what? With one minute left, it came down to the team that wanted it the most winning.

CONGRATULATIONS, CAVS!!

I’m no big fan of LeBron but the Warriors got just deserts after Draymon Green’s pathetic sportsmanship throughout the playoffs.

Any pro sport that plays so many games and a team still ends up with a 73-9 with a 890 winning % is a flawed sport. There is something very wrong there. I mean come on.

LOL...orchestrated...yeah sure. Curry just plain got doubled and harassed and they became a 4 man team. Bogut?...Nobody said a word last year about the injuries we had. It was all about the splash brothers..they were drips this year. Draymond Green had a nut fetish. Kept wacking people in them. Get over it....he got what he deserved and Cleveland got what they deserved. A Championship.

I think it was rigged too. I believe all sports are rigged, especially the NFL and the NBA. Not so much baseball, because the only judgement call a ref has to make is balls and strikes. NFL, a ref can call a penalty to keep drives moving.

Tom Donaghy, ref who was prisoned for a betting scandal, said 100% of the referees gamble.

Remember this series between the Kings and Lakers, where Tom Donaghy was a referee at in 2002. Claimed that the NBA encourages certain outcomes in major games. Lakers shot 27 free throws in the 4th quarter coming back to tie the series.
