Default Just got back from game 7, what a thrill it was being there!!

I flew 10 hours from London, England and bravely walked into oracle arena with my LeBron jersey proudly on. Was fortunate to be able to get pretty amazing seats level 100 base line. I'm a pretty big Lebron fan, cuz LeBron makes me appreciate the game of basketball that much more. Probably the best all around player I have ever witnessed, and makes everyone around him much better. I was at game 5 when he won his first title with the heat vs okc, and was at both games 6 and 7 when he won his second title vs the Spurs. So now LeBron is 3-0 in the finals I have attended lol.

He has now lead 2 completely different NBA teams to a title, I don't think people realise just how difficult that really is. I hope the excuses and criticism can finally end, and people just enjoy the years he's got left in this league. Here are some pics I took today. Man what an experience it was. It's the first NBA game I've been to where the entire arena did not sit down once for the entire game. What an end to an epic NBA finals. Congrats to the city of Cleveland you really deserved this one.

Holy moly.. thanks for sharing that. Experiences for a lifetime I'm sure. I saw LeBron vs. Orlando Magic this season and was excited. But a chance to go to a Game 7.. for the Championship?? Epic.

Must off been crazy there. I was on the edge of my seat the whole game. Great win/comeback Cavs.

Everyone at the party had to eat burned wings, ribs, ETC!!! Grill was hot but somewhat cold.

Neutral fan! Great record breaking season on almost every single category. OUT!

And the flight was probably a few grand on top of that.

What a game to go to, LeBron vs the 73 win Warriors comes down to the last minute of a game 7. One of the greatest Finals ever.

I considered doing the same thing, exoticprince, but no way I could have got such good seats. I was looking at the $750 seats, i.e. the cheapest available. But I couldn't go because I teach and can't get the time off work. Otherwise my wife and I would have been on the same flight as you, ha!

Glad you were able to experience such a huge game in person.
