What has started in Cleveland has now ended in Cleveland. After the Golden State Warriors blew a 3-1 lead in the NBA Finals to the Cleveland Cavaliers, the memes roasting the team have been endless.

In the court of social media, no one gets off easy at all. As soon as the Indians started to lose their grip, the memes were fast and furious. Some might call it karma and others might call it hilarious, but the memes were flying left and right. Let’s take a look at some of the best memes to be posted on social media after the collapse.

Needless to say, the Warriors are now off the hook and everyone is going to be reminded of the Indians blowing a 3-1 lead for a long time. With social media booming in sports, the memes are likely to never go away until the next team blows a 3-1 lead.
For the Indians to blow it against the Cubs is even bigger. The team won their first World Series in 108 years and will now be praised as champions until the end of time. Don’t let that distract you from the fact the Indians blew a 3-1 lead though.
