As the NBA Season reaches to it penultimate stage, the Toronto Raptors having the best Odds to win the championship for the 1st time in their history where they currently lead 3 – 1 against the defending champions Golden State Warriors.
With the champions trailing 3 -1 with their star man Kevin Durant still doubtful for Game 5, it is a difficult task for the Golden State to come up the 3 – 1 deficit. Considering the history of NBA finals, the record is 1 – 33 i.e. only one team has won an NBA Championship when they were down 3 -1 and finally winning it 4 – 3 and that team was LeBron led Cleveland Cavaliers.
To be called as a miracle to be precise. The 2016 NBA Finals was a historic event in NBA History. The Top-seeded Eastern Conference Team with a 57 – 27 wins/loss record going against the history makers 73 – 9 Golden State Warriors. With Trailing 3 – 1 going into Game 5 is considered to be one of the most impressive feats in the history of NBA Basketball.
Lebron James along with Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love were never giving up on this Game line where James in the Finals came up clutch with 27 Points 11 Rebounds and 11 Assists where he stood up like the architect and also game-winning block on Andre Iguodala where he rose up from the free – throw line to get that ball out of his hands. Kyrie Irving, whose game-winning 3 pointer with the last 53 seconds left on the clock over Stephen Curry is still an eye-pleasing sight for the Cleveland Fans and players.
LeBron James who came back to the Cavs to deliver what he promised for i.e. an NBA Championship. But the Championship Celebrations were short-lived as a few weeks later Golden State added up Kevin Durant to their roster where they took their revenge in their following 2 seasons where they whitewashed them 4 – 1 in 2017 finals and 4 – 0 in 2018 finals which proved to be the last season for LeBron before moving to the Los Angeles Lakers.
Now the Golden State Warriors find themselves in a tricky situation as the Cavs in 2015 -16 and they are without services of Kevin Durant. Will the Raptors win it all or will there be a Miracle at Oracle.
