2016 CHAMPIONSHIP RECAP

HOW IT ALL STARTED: Cleveland opened up their 20th playoff appearance on April 17 against Detroit. The Cavs swept the Pistons, 4-0, in the First Round to advance to the Eastern Conference Semifinals for the 10th time in franchise history. They followed that up with a 4-0 sweep over Atlanta to get to the Eastern Conference Finals for the 6th time ever. The Cavs defeated Toronto, 4-2, to make it to the NBA Finals for the second year in a row and third time ever (2007, 2015, 2016). The Cavs defeated Golden State 4-3 for their first ever NBA title, improving to 100-89 all-time in the postseason (16-5 in 2016), including 63-31 at home.

2016 NBA CHAMPIONS: The Cavaliers won their first ever NBA championship after defeating the Golden State Warriors, 4-3. Below are a few notes on their Finals win:

DROUGHT IS OVER: The Cavs’ 1st championship in franchise history ended a 52-year drought by major pro sports teams from Cleveland (Dec. 27, 1964-Browns).

ROAD WIN IN GAME 7: Cleveland became just the 4th team to win an NBA Finals Game 7 on the road (4-15) and the first since Washington Bullets beat the Seattle SuperSonics in 1978. The Cavs also clinched each of their four playoff series in 2016 on the road, becoming just the 3

rd team to do so since the current playoff format began in 1984, joining San

Antonio (1999) and Detroit (1989).

DOWN 3-1: Cleveland became the first team to overcome a 3-1 deficit in the Finals. Each of the 32 previous teams to trail 3-1 lost in the Finals. Overall, the Cavs are the 11th team to climb back and win after trailing any playoff series 3-1.

FORCING A FINALS GAME 7: The Cavs were just the 3rd team in NBA history to force a Finals Game 7 after trailing 3-1 (1951 New York Knicks and 1966 Los Angeles Lakers).

100TH PLAYOFF WIN IN GAME 7: Cleveland’s 93-89 victory in Game 7 of the Finals was also the 100th playoff victory in team history (100-89).

5TH

GAME 7 IN CAVS HISTORY: It was Cleveland’s first ever NBA Finals Game 7 and their fifth overall Game 7 in franchise postseason history: 1976 Semifinals vs. Washington (4-3), 1992 Semifinals vs. Boston (4-3), 2006 Semifinals vs. Detroit (3-4) and 2008 Semifinals vs. Boston (3-4).

2016 NBA FINALS MVP: LeBron James won his 3rd Finals MVP after averaging 29.7 points (208), 11.3 rebounds (79), 8.9 assists (62), 2.57 steals (18) and 2.29 blocks (16). He is the first player in NBA history to lead all players in all five categories for an entire playoff series. No other player in NBA history has also ever produced 208 points, 79 rebounds and 62 assists in one NBA Finals series.

CLEVELAND'S DYNAMIC DUO: LeBron James averaged 29.7 points per game in this year's NBA Finals and Kyrie Irving scored an average of 27.1 points, becoming just the 4th set of teammates to each average at least 27.0 points. The only other pairs of teammates who each averaged more than 27 points per game in an NBA Finals series were Elgin Baylor and Jerry West, who did it for the Lakers in both 1962 (40.6 and 31.1, respectively) and 1963 (33.8 and 29.5, respectively), and Cliff Hagan (29.4) and Bob Pettit (28.4) for the St. Louis Hawks in 1961. (Elias)

o 25.0 PPG: Irving (25.2 ppg) and James (26.3 ppg) also became the 5th teammates to average 25.0+ points in a single postseason: Kevin Durant/Russell Westbrook (2014, 2016), Kobe Bryant/Shaquille O'Neal (2001-2003), Charles Barkley/Kevin Johnson (1994) and Elgin Baylor/Jerry West (1962-63, 1966, 1968). (ESPN)

o 40 POINTS APIECE: In a 112-97 win over Golden State in Game 5 of the NBA Finals on June 13, LeBron James (41 pts, 16-30 FG, 4-8 3FG, 16 rebs, 7 asts, 3 stls, 3 blks) and Kyrie Irving (41 pts, 17-24 FG, 5-7 3FG, 6 asts) became the first teammates in NBA Finals history to score 40 points apiece and the 5th set of teammates to do so in any playoff game. James and Irving scored or assisted on 97 points, matching the scoring output of the Warriors as a team. The Cavs' final 25 made FG were either scored or assisted by James or Irving.

o FIRST CAVS TEAMMATES WITH 30+ AND 40+ POINTS IN PLAYOFFS: Before they each topped 40 points in Game 5 of the NBA Finals, Kyrie Irving (30 points) and LeBron

James (32 points) became the first pair of Cavalier teammates to score 30 points each in a Finals game after doing so in Game 3 vs. Golden State on June 8. J.R. Smith added 20 points that night, also marking the first time three Cavs players scored 20 points apiece in a Finals game.

UNDERDOG WINS THE TITLE: The Cavaliers (57-25) won 16 fewer games than the Warriors (73-9) did during the regular season. The team with the better regular-season record won each of the ten previous NBA Finals in which one team produced at least 13 more regular-season wins than its opponent. Before this year, the only NBA Finals series won by a team that had at least 12 fewer regular-season wins than its opponent was in 1975, when Golden State (48-34) swept Washington (60-22), four games to none.

Lue is the first head coach to win an NBA title with a former teammate on his championship roster since Pat Riley won four titles for the Lakers with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (1982, 1985, 1987, and 1988). Riley and Abdul-Jabbar were teammates with the Lakers in 1975-76. (Elias Sports Bureau)

o GAME 7 FOURTH QUARTER: The Cavaliers stifled the Warriors in the fourth quarter of Game 7, outscoring them 18-13 in the final period (0 points in last 4:39).

30-POINT WIN IN FINALS GAME 3: The Cavs had a 120-90 wire-to-wire victory over the Warriors in Game 3 of the NBA Finals at The Q, which was their 100th

In Game 3, Cleveland set franchise highs for a Finals game in points (120), field goals made (48) and three-point percentage (.480), while tying their marks in three-point field goals (12).

STRONG AT THE Q: Cleveland finished 9-1 at home in the 2016 Playoffs, which was their best mark in franchise postseason history.

36-POINT HALFTIME LEAD: In Game 2 of the Second Round against Atlanta on May 4, the Cavaliers held a 74-38 (+36) lead over the Hawks through two quarters, tying the second-largest halftime advantage for any team in NBA playoff history. The Pistons were ahead of the Bullets by 40 points at the half in a first-round game in 1987, and the Bucks had a 36-point lead over the 76ers at intermission in a first-round game in 1970. The Cavs also set the franchise playoff record for points in a half that night (prev. 68 points twice). (Elias)

BALL SAFETY: Cleveland averaged 12.5 turnovers in the 2016 Playoffs and had less than 10 miscues four times.

1 TO IN 1ST HALF: In the Game 1 win over Atlanta on May 2, Cleveland committed one turnover in the first half. The last time the Cavs had only one turnover in a half of a playoff game was in the first half against the Orlando Magic on May 20, 2009 (one turnover in the first half). The Cavs also had just one turnover in the first half in Game 3 of the ECF at Toronto on May 21 this postseason. (Elias Sports Bureau)

25 ASSISTS & 5 TO IN POSTSEASON: In the Game 1 win over Detroit on April 17, the Cavaliers dished out 25 assists to only five turnovers. The five turnovers committed by the Wine and Gold tied a franchise playoff low for turnovers in a game. The only other time Cleveland recorded five turnovers in a playoff match was on April 18, 2009, which was also against the Pistons. Prior to the Cavs tallying 25 assists and just five turnovers in the Game 1 win over Detroit on April 17, the last NBA team to have at least 25 assists and no more than five turnovers in a playoff game was the Chicago Bulls on April 19, 2010 (25 assists, 4 turnovers). Cleveland had never done so in the playoffs before Game 1 against the Pistons.

25 ASSISTS & 5 TO IN REGULAR SEASON: Prior to April 17, the last time Cleveland had 25 assists and five or fewer miscues in any game (regular and post) prior to the win over Detroit on April 17 was March 29, 2009 against Dallas (28 assists, 4 turnovers).

THREE’S COMPANY: Kyrie Irving, LeBron James and Kevin Love each poured in at least 20 points in the same game six times in the 2016 Playoffs after having two such instances during the 2015-16 regular season (1/29 vs. DET, 1/30 vs. SAS).

DO IT AGAIN: Irving, James and Love totaled at least 20 points apiece in back-to-back games twice (May 6-8, May 25-27). No other trio had back-to-back games of that kind in the 2016 postseason. The last time a trio achieved that feat in consecutive games of the Conference Finals was in 1982, when the Lakers' Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Bob McAdoo, and Norm Nixon reached 20 points in back-to-back games against the Spurs. (Elias Sports Bureau)

4 PLAYERS WITH 20-PLUS PTS: In Game 3 of the Second Round at Atlanta on May 6, Channing Frye (27), Kyrie Irving (24), LeBron James (24) and Kevin Love (21) each scored over 20 points. It marked just the second time in franchise playoff history the Cavs had four players score 20 points or more. The only other time was April 26, 1990 at Philadelphia (Brad Daugherty-21, Larry Nance-20, Mark Price-21 and John Williams-23). (Elias Sports Bureau)

2016 CHAMPIONSHIP RECAP (CONT.)

LET IT RAIN: The Cavaliers made 258 three-pointers, which were the 2nd-most threes hit in a single playoffs in NBA history (behind only 2016 GSW-306). In the 2016 Playoffs, Cleveland ranked 2

nd in both three-point percentage (.406) and three-point makes per game (12.3).

12 OR MORE…AND 20 OR MORE: Cleveland drained 12 or more three-pointers 12 times in the 2016 Playoffs, including in an NBA playoff record eight straight games from April 17-May 8 (The last team to do that in the regular season was Houston from Dec. 4-17, 2015). Cleveland also nailed at least 20 three-pointers on three occasions during the postseason, which is also an NBA playoff record.

o RARE AIR: Prior to 2016, only three teams had ever made 20 threes in the 2,647 playoff games played since the NBA laid down its first three-point arc in 1979. (Elias Sports Bureau)

o 50.7 PERCENT: The Cavaliers shot .507 (77-152) from beyond the arc against Atlanta, producing the same total of points that would be produced by shooting 76 percent on two-point attempts. The Cavaliers more than doubled the NBA playoff record for the most three-point attempts in a series in which a team made at least half of those attempts; the previous record was held by Utah, which made 39 of 75 three-point tries (.520) in a Semifinals series against the Spurs in 1996 (when the three-point arc was closer to the basket). (Elias)

o CONSECUTIVE GAMES WITH 20 TRIPLES: After connecting on 21-39 (.538) shots from beyond the arc in Game 3 of the Second Round at Atlanta on May 6, the Cavs became the first team in NBA history to have consecutive games with 20 or more three-pointers (regular and postseason).

NBA RECORD-25 THREE-POINTERS: In a 123-98 win over Atlanta in Game 2 of the Second Round on May 4, the Cavs connected on 25-45 (.556) shots from the three-point line, setting the NBA record for three-pointers in any game (regular and postseason).

o 18 TRIPLES IN A HALF: Cleveland also knocked down 18 three-pointers in the first half in Game 2 against Atlanta, setting the NBA record for threes in any half (regular and postseason). The previous NBA record (regular and postseason) for three-pointers in a half was 15, set by Golden State twice (March 8, 2016 and November 27, 2015). Cleveland’s previous playoff record for three-pointers in a half was 11 in the first half of Game 2 vs. Detroit on April 20, 2016.

o 10 TRIPLES IN A QUARTER: The Cavs knocked down eight three-pointers in the first quarter in Game 2 against Atlanta, setting the franchise playoff record for threes in a quarter. Cleveland followed that up with 10 three-pointers in the second quarter, setting the NBA postseason record for threes in a quarter. The NBA’s previous playoff record for three-pointers in a quarter was nine twice (Atlanta-April 28, 2014 and Orlando-April 20, 2008). The previous franchise playoff record for threes in a quarter was six on six different occasions.

o 10 CAVS PLAYERS HIT A THREE THAT NIGHT: The Cavs had 10 players knock down at least one three-pointer in Game 2 against the Hawks, becoming the first team in NBA history with 10 players with a three-pointer in a playoff game. The only team to do that in a regular season game is Atlanta on March 30, 2016. (Elias)

PLAYOFF LAUNCH: The Cavs made 57 three-pointers in their First Round series against Detroit, averaging 14.3 threes per contest. Cleveland shot 20-38 (.526) from the three-point line in their 107-90 win in Game 2 of the First Round on April 20, setting a then franchise playoff record.

CLEAN SWEEP: The Cleveland Cavaliers advanced to the Eastern Conference Semifinals after a 4-0 series sweep over the Detroit Pistons and followed that up with a 4-0 sweep over Atlanta to make it to the ECF. Cleveland has gone on to sweep an opponent each time when leading 3-0 in a series (2007 First Round vs. WAS, 2009 First Round vs. DET, 2009 Semifinals vs. ATL, 2015 First Round vs. BOS and 2015 Conference Finals vs. ATL, 2016 First Round vs. DET and 2016 Semifinals vs. ATL).

12 STRAIGHT PLAYOFF WINS OVER DETROIT: After their 4-0 First Round sweep over Detroit, the Cavaliers have won 12 straight playoff contests over the Pistons (four straight in 2009 First Round and four straight in the 2007 Conference Finals). It is tied for the longest winning streak by an NBA team against a single opponent in playoff history.

12 STRAIGHT PLAYOFF WINS OVER ATLANTA: Cleveland has won 12 straight playoff games against Atlanta, which is tied for the longest streak over an opponent in NBA playoff history. The Cavs are 12-0 all-time against the Hawks in postseason play, breaking an NBA record. Previously, only one other team in NBA history had won its first 10 playoff games against a particular opponent: Boston was 10-0 in playoff games against Chicago from 1981 to 1987. (Elias Sports Bureau)

POSTSEASON K-LOVE: Kevin Love had 10 double-doubles (3rd-most in 2016 Playoffs), including five 20-10 games, and averaged 14.7 points and 8.8 rebounds (tied-13th in 2016 Playoffs) in 30.6 minutes. He also ranked 5th in the NBA Playoffs with 46 three-pointers made.

EIGHT IN A ROW: Love notched 8 straight double-doubles from April 17-May 8, setting a franchise playoff record for consecutive double-doubles at any point of a single playoffs.

BIG VS. ATLANTA: Love posted four double-doubles in four games against the Hawks in the Second Round, averaging 19.0 points, including a .475 (19-40) mark from deep, 13.0 rebounds and 2.5 assists in 32.8 minutes.

team’s playing canvas at Quicken Loans Arena for the 2016-17 season. Fans will receive a preview of the new court throughout the preseason, with the final finishing touches revealed at the Opening Night Championship Celebration on October 25th.

New Cavaliers Court Design Features: The maple hardwood playing surface features a light stain throughout the entire court and is framed with a bold black perimeter that is spirited off of the Cavs popular sleeved black uniforms. The lane is solid wine with bright gold accents.

The team’s signature “C” logo continues at center court, featuring navy block shadows and gold outlining. The half court line features a Cavaliers sword in a natural wood tone that runs through the center of the C logo.

The baselines, painted in black, display “Cleveland Cavaliers” in wine and gold. “Quicken Loans Arena” is displayed on each half court, and the east sideline features “Cavs.com” near the home bench with the team’s Twitter handle “@Cavs” at the visitor’s bench. The Cavs DNA statement “All for One. One for All.” is centered on the west sideline and will include the names of all Wine & Gold United members (the team’s year-round season ticket based club) within the letters.

Designed by the Cavaliers graphics team, the court was constructed by Robbins Portable Floors in Cincinnati, Ohio. It is composed of 210, 4’ x 8’ pieces and 15, 4’ x 4’ pieces, and takes approximately one hour to assemble.
