Correct if I’m wrong but the day of the title parade through Cleveland didn’t the ESPN announcers say it was the largest title parade ever?

Yeah, I think there were memes using pictures of that crowd to trigger people during social distancing.Don't know about that but it sure as hell was the most crowded.

oh i see youI'm the guy towards the right in the yellow shirt.
It's so crazy. 5 years later on a random day in August and about to watch the rook play his first summer league game and it still blows me away that we got one...
Kinda how I always imagined it would be as fan of a Cleveland sports team to win a championship...
I have watched that so many times. One thing to this day that still baffles me is Kyrie trying to make that layup on a fast break right after a GS miss with maybe 19 seconds left? He got the ball back and it worked out but, whew, i still scratch my head over that one.Edit...thats the one time in my life i liked Mike Breen...." oh, blocked by James"....i could play that on a loop as i go to sleep every night for eternity...well, not really but it was and still is a legendary call.
I envision this thread as a calm, soothing happy place that people can retreat to when the pressure of a mid-February game against the Nets just becomes too much. Instead of posting KYRIE CAN'T PLAY TEAM BALL TRADE LOVE LUE SUCKS LEBRON IS A SPOILED COACH-KILLING FUCK people can just come over here, leaf through a few pages, and let the resentment over that bad turnover or blown defensive assignment just fade away.
I randomly come in to laugh that I was one of the people saying we were going to win at half. Once in my life I was the positive person, it was Game 7. You're welcome.Funny you said that. I just reread this entire thread, and it was awesome. So anyone who got random, very dated "likes" from me today, you now know why.
I couldn't even watch half of the game - I kept having to walk out of the room.I randomly come in to laugh that I was one of the people saying we were going to win at half. Once in my life I was the positive person, it was Game 7. You're welcome.
I might have teared up just a bit. I was at home watching, beautiful summer night. Afterwards I went out in the back yard with a tall glass of Gentleman Jack on the rocks, a good cigar, and my dogs, crickets, fireflies, and bullfrogs croaking in the pond. A night to remember, for sure. Was it Father's Day on top of everything else? Seems like I talked to my kids earlier that day on top of everything else. What a good day it was.I couldn't even watch half of the game - I kept having to walk out of the room.
What strikes me is that the overwhelming reaction of all of us hard-core fans was crying. More casual fans seemed giddy/happy that night, but for the rest of us, we just unloaded a shitload of pain that night.
Fred MacLeod's reaction - "It's over" and then just breaking down - really nailed it. He was all of us that night. Fuck it - that belongs in this thread too:
