Who will the Cleveland Cavaliers play in the 2016 NBA Finals?

After coming out with intensity and focus the Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the Toronto Raptors on the road in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals and clinched their spot in the NBA Finals.

LeBron James stepped up and helped lead his team early en route to 33 points and an impressive night. It wasn’t just James that stepped up for the Cavaliers either.

Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love both hit the tough shots on the floor and each of them really brought everything together on the floor. With the win, the Cavaliers will be going to the NBA Finals for the second straight year and James will be going to his sixth straight.

Who the Cavaliers play next remains to be seen. They are awaiting the winner of the Western Conference Finals between the Golden State Warriors and Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Thunder currently hold a 3-2 series advantage heading into Game 6 of that series. No matter who ends up winning, another fantastic NBA Finals should be on tap this season.

The big question for the Cavaliers is whether or not they can finally bring a championship to Cleveland.
