Iman Shumpert saves Cavs, gets Lil B’s blessing

Lil B threatened the Cleveland Cavaliers and Iman Shumpert stepped in to spare his team from the curse.

Everyone in basketball knows about the Lil B curse. It has reportedly prevented the Oklahoma City Thunder and Kevin Durant from reaching or winning the NBA Finals. He took aim at Houston Rockets guard James Harden for stealing his dance moves, and then the Rockets were eliminated from the playoffs.

So after some dancing from the Cleveland Cavaliers after sweeping the Atlanta Hawks in Eastern Conference Finals, Lil B sent a warning.
