The Cleveland Cavaliers finally reach the NBA finals, beating Detroit 98 to 82 in Game 6 of the East Finals. After a incredible performance by Lebron in Game 5, the Pistons clamped down their defense, but Lebron wisely chose to rely on his teammates, most notably, Daniel Gibson who poured 31 career high points, 19 in the 4th quarter to put away the Pistons. Next challenge is San Antonio, a proven Finals team, that will test the young Cavaliers. Stay Tuned!

LeBron James scored 48 points in one of the greatest playoff performances in NBA history, to lead the Cavaliers past Detroit 109-107 in double overtime in Detroit on Thursday.

James amazingly scored Cleveland’s final 25 points in an epic game as the Cavs took a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven Eastern Conference final with game six on Saturday in Cleveland.

“This is one of the best individual performances I have ever seen. He was magnificent,” Charles Barkley, retired NBA star and television commentator, said.
