When the clock struck zero, LeBron James did something he had never done before after winning a NBA Championship—he broke down in tears.
Everyone said he could not succeed this season at Cleveland, he was on the decline. No one thought the Cavs could come back after being down 3-1, since no team had done so in history.
It was all supposed to go down as LeBron “choking” yet again.
But the 2016 NBA finals proved to be a historic one in LeBron’s favor. He went from relishing the moment with the championship trophy in Miami, to a total and utter breakdown after winning the title for Cleveland.
