Last year, I wrote behalf the win at the Eastern
Final Conference against the Atlanta Hawks saying,"During the end of
the game, where everybody was cheering and crying and many shouting,
"I can't believe it." There was a sensation in not only myself, but
many others that the Cavs are not satisfied. I know the cavs are not
done. We know our boys are going to work hard and do anything to
win, we deserve to win. Instead of saying, "I cant believe it." we
deserve to tell ourselves to believe it.”
Though the Cavs didn’t win last year, all the hype in 2016 was an
un-shattering feeling in all the hearts of Cavalier fans. After a 52
year hiatus. The Cavs have finally won Cleveland the championship
they deserve.
From the earliest time I can remember, I have been a “Cleveland VS
Everybody” fan before it was ever a popular slogan. Basically, I
liked Cleveland before it was cool, And I reminded everyone I met I
was born in the same hospital as Lebron James.
Then, it happened…the inevitable, “Cleveland Curse.” The sad part,
is that for so many years, we Cleveland’s believed we would always
be the underdog team in the NBA. We accepted mediocrity and in a way
we never thought the day would come for a Cleveland team to win a
championship. However, we still stayed true to the Cavs, to Lebron
James. We are a special place in Ohio where nothing is given and
EVERYTHING is earned.
Since the win, we Cleveland’s have risen to the challenge, not only
in the sports world, but in the city and surrounding areas as a
whole. The city has some of the brightest schools and upcoming best
workplaces in the country. Business is booming and the city is
growing personally and professionally as we now have: Fortune 500
companies, Development Groups, The RNC, even Hollywood!
As we shall stay as our humble winnings, for one day, we are all
“family”. We are “All In” but most importantly we are ALL CHAMPIONS
for our city! |
