The Warriors have been defeated.

Written by

The Warriors did not get the 'Three-peat' they had hoped for.

As a Cavs fan I'm pretty happy, aside from the injuries suffered by two of the greatest shooters in the league, of course.  I'm a fan of the sport of Basketball in general and while I support my favorite teams, I really enjoy watching a good, competitive contest rather than a blow-out or one-sided victory.  Could the series have ended another way had KD been healthy?  Sure.  Had Klay not gone down in Game 6?  Probably.  Those will be factors to reflect on for those that were not thrilled with the outcome of Game 6, but in the end, the Toronto Raptors are the NBA Champions and that's what the History books will show.  Injuries are a part of the game, just look at the Western Conference finals from the 2018 season... would the Warriors have beaten the Rockets to advance if CP3 didn't have to sit those last games?  We will never know.

I do hope for a full, speedy recovery for Klay and KD... and not just so I can 'Love to Hate' them for being as good as they are, but because whether you like them or not, they bring another level of excitement to the game when they are on the floor.

Congrats to our neighbors to THE NORTH for bringing home their first NBA Championship for not only the Franchise, but for ANY COUNTRY outside the USA.  Also, we can never let 'The North' forget that 'The North Coast' is the team that showed that the Warriors could be beaten.   Now bring on The Draft!!!
