Will never forget where I was when they won game seven. At a Holiday inn and suites on Nebraska, I was going to check in but the hotel manager was on a phone call, I look to my right into the breakfast room and saw the tv was tuned to the finals. I didn't even hesitate and just walked over and sat down to watch. It was game seven, 4th QT, five minutes left in the game. The hotel manager ended her call and tried to get my attention, but I ignored her because my focus was completely on the game. She walked into the room and saw me watching and just sat down and watched it with me. I remember leaping out of my chair and shouting for joy when they won. As someone from Nebraska the hotel manager didn't quiet understand, but she was very nice about it and happy for me. Unforgettable, this moment for me is up there with 9/11 and moments like that, as far as remembering where I was and how it affected me.

As a kid born and raised in Cleveland Ohio and a die hard sports fan. Going crazy over Omar Vazquel at shortstop and tuning in to watch LeBrons first summer league games and his first ever game on the hardwood as a NBA player.. Fast forwarding to 2016 where the Cavs and Cleveland Indians both in 3-1 situations.. 2016(216) one of the best sports years of my life happy I got to go through all the years with and without. Even the heartbreak of LeBron leaving us on such a national platform.. but as I always say… he came back and got us one. That’s all that matters… CLEVELAND THIS IS FOR YOU!!!!

Kyrie is a terrific player

Kevin love truly ascended in that defensive moment. Now he gets to live the rest of his life knowing that he stopped the greatest shooter the world has ever seen in a critical game 7 moment... I doubt he was even thinking in that moment or if he even really remembers. Played in that moment greater than he ever has or will. Incredible.

Let's be real most of us saw the Cavs as an underdog team. My cousin was a Warriors fan, but I always was a Cavs. Especially when Warriors boomed in 2015. 2016 then came and I saw hope for Cleveland. There it was Cleveland brought home a championship.

The 2016 finals series was once in a lifetime,iconic!LeBron and the Cavs,was on a mission in this series! 45:50 GOOSEBUMPS!

In any sport. I get that some will mention other iconic wins such as the Giants over the undefeated Pats, but that was just one game. Anything can happen in one game. To comeback from being down 3-1 against the best regular season team of all time and beat them in the last few seconds of a game 7, on their floor, is unprecedented IMO. Best championship ever.

sunday June 19 2016 father's day night I was 19 years old and I remembered that game 7 when LeBron said to the whole world CLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVEEEEELAAAAAAAAAAAND THIS IS FOR YOU!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🤴🏾🏆

The 2016 NBA Finals was an emotional game. Personally, I think this is the best NBA finals!! Especially Game 7, I can't put it into words anymore. For LeBron, winning this championship had a different meaning than when he was in Miami. I cried when I saw it too.

when your team's playoff motto is "Defend the Land" and "All In" there's no way you lose.

What a time to be alive! i was 14 years old at that time and watching them came back from 3-1 lead gives me an idea that giving up is just an option and if you really want to win you have to push thru it.💯💎

I’ll never forget this. I was to hyped 216 stand up the parade was 🔥

One of the most explosive player who once thought rely on his athleticism too much and will inevitably decline after age catches up to him, turns out to be personification of longevity. No.1 scoring in NBA and still going strong at age of 39. You just can’t make this up!

This championship literally changed the entire trajectory of the league. GSW recruit kd, essentially breaking up the westbrook, ke and harden trio, which in hindsight may have been potentially the real big three if they had stayed together. So many other narratives spurred out of this finals. The best ever hands down.

The best finals series i ever saw and one of my best days in life the night we won the chip!

The best nba finals i have seen so far since i started watching the nba. Up and down back and forth

The greatest comeback in NBA History and this something that cannot be taken away from Cleveland.

I'm watching this and the excitement in my blood is like I never seen it. Lebron and Kyrie was such a great combination. So mad egos and peer pressure split this duo. I want to see them together again in LA so damn bad. One more go at it together.

It wasn't just that the Cavs won that title, it was: A: The WAY they won it! Coming back from 3-1 down. B: Beating a team that won an NBA record 73 games C: Beating them twice in their arena with elimination on the line. I still get a few tears seeing this. This meant EVERYTHING to me, and it still does!

Thanks for this beautiful video, it's a joy to watch and bring back great memories from that time. Greatest NBA final ever

I'm not that big of a Lebron fan.. but this is such an amazing documentary. It is so beautiful and inspiring man.

This was the only season that I was at a lost on who would win it all. Nowadays, it's from the West all the damn way. But this, this season got me hooked on all games.

2000-2016 was the greatest, most exciting basketball era. I miss it..

this is the best feeling to win a championship❤️

I want a 10h documentary about Lebron's career just like Netflix did with Jordan and the Bulls. This man is fireee 💥

I still watch this over an over again ❤

Greatest nba season of all time

I get excited about The Cavs committing to The NBA Finals season and being a Championship winner will never be the same in 2016 ❤😢😊

This finals made MJ release "The Last Dance". Whether you're and MJ fan or Lebron fan, you gotta admit this is how basketball is supposed to be played. It's a team game after all - not a one man show.
