I have ignored professional basketball for the most part this season given the dismal showing of the Knicks, and don't really care who wins the NBA Finals. But things as they are, I am pulling for Cleveland.
I felt sorry for the Cavs after LeBron ditched them years ago after his pathetic interview boasting about taking his talents to South Beach. He lost the favor of most fans on the east coast and seemed to be an opportunist at its worst.
And then there was the Cav's owner, declaring, angrily, that Cleveland would win a championship before Miami. Well that was not even close to happening.
Has LeBron redeemed himself at all? I think so. I think the fans in Cleveland deserve the victory and I would like to see it.
