I hope the game was won fair and square by the Cavaliers. The Warriors lost by 30 points in game three which is a red flag of suspicion. Then in game five Green gets a personal foul while James is free to bump and travel at his pleasure. Sad. Wrestling match? Kind of. Still great story for Cleveland.
I remember the Indians losing to the pathetic Marlins in the 1997 World Series. That was suspicious, since the Marlins were anxious to build a stadium.
In a close game, officiating can make it go either way. This is not the first time a pro sports championship was decided by referees, and by extension, the league. It’s the same kind of thinking that brought us our first black president. The story of Cleveland having the first championship in something is a bigger story than a fairly-played series. NBA wanted the story for the press attention. Golden State, ho hum. Cleveland, oh yeah!
