After 52 long years, the city of Cleveland can finally celebrate a championship once again.

The Cavaliers beat the Golden State Warriors in Game 7 of the NBA Finals to win the title, 93-89, and LeBron James had 27 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists in the clinching game on his way to winning NBA Finals MVP.

After the game, LeBron was brought to tears and was choked up during his postgame interview as he tried to explain what this means to him, the Cavs and the city of Cleveland.
