Comment on LeBron, Cavs confident, healthy as they return to NBA Finals

LeBron, Cavs confident, healthy as they return to NBA Finals

LeBron, Cavs confident, healthy as they return to NBA Finals James scored 33 points, Kevin Love had 20 points and 12 rebounds, and the Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Toronto Raptors 113-87 in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference finals Friday night, winning the series 4-2. Last year, a depleted Cavs team lost in six games to the Warriors, left to wonder whether things would have worked out differently if Love (left shoulder) and Irving (left knee) had been at full strength. Irving, who had battled knee injuries during his first postseason before breaking his kneecap late in Game 1 of last year's finals, said he's thankful for the opportunity to be a contributor this time around. Thinking about the steps it took to get back to where we are now, I really have a true appreciation for these guys, my teammates and just a true appreciation of the journey. James will be the eighth player in NBA history to appear in six consecutive finals and the first who didn't play for the Boston Celtics. A shot at the NBA title is just what Cavs owner Dan Gilbert had in mind when he signed Love to a $113 million contract last summer and gave Tristan Thompson $82 million.
