The Cleveland Cavaliers stormed back from a 3-1 deficit in the NBA Finals to beat the Golden State Warriors. There were a number of San Francisco 49ers players that were cheering on Lebron James as he finally brought home a title to Cleveland – the city's first in 52 years. For the Warriors, people are already calling it the Greatest Season That Never Was, as the team broke the regular season record for wins but failed to solidify that run with a title.
Here are the reactions from numerous 49ers players following Cleveland's over Golden State tonight. 49ers rookie RB Kelvin Taylor seemed pretty excited about the result.
Y'all just see steph...And they said Kobe was a ball hog

Lebron James and company just beat arguably the best basketball team ever 3 times in a row. In the NBA finals. Crown the King.

Draymond being a great sport. I love that. That's what it's all about. It's much bigger than just a game.
— Trigga (@BryceTreggs) June 20, 2016
Cleveland had way better game plan & execution. No adjustments made by Golden state all series

Lebron James goes into Oracle... And takes what is rightfully is.

Steph Curry wasn't even a top 5 player in this series and some people want to mention him on the same level of greatness of Lebron?
— Trigga (@BryceTreggs) June 20, 2016
I feel like I'm on top of the world, wonder what them haters gone say next? It don't even matter @KingJames

Lebron James. 3 rings, 3 finals MVPs.
— Trigga (@BryceTreggs) June 20, 2016
They should do a movie on Lebron though....he really did what folks dream of doing for their home team
— Torrey Smith (@TorreySmithWR) June 20, 2016
Referring to former Cal teammate Jared Goff...
I'm about to give Jared so much trash talk for the next week he's not gonna be my friend anymore
— Trigga (@BryceTreggs) June 20, 2016
Just won the finals after being down 3-1. Back to back 41 point games vs the best regular season team ever. And it's still not good enough
— Trigga (@BryceTreggs) June 20, 2016
All you haters hold him to such a high standard. And that alone shows how great you all think he is. Even his haters think he's great.
— Trigga (@BryceTreggs) June 20, 2016
He tried to carry them tonight. Couldn't get any help from the MVP. https://t.co/BRT0w5AXg1

KING

FYI...Not referring to anyone on Cleveland's roster...
How can they call someone the best and he's not even the best on his own team 🤔
— Eric Rogers (@EricDionRogers) June 20, 2016
And just like that... Lebron has more finals MVPs than Kobe. Just something to think about when comparing the two.

Much respect to LeBron he fought for that one. You can feel the emotion, you get nothing but respect from me big fella#TheKing #GrindHard

Lebron is the only player that can do this and still have people say he doesn't deserve finals MVP https://t.co/iPR26417Fz
— Trigga (@BryceTreggs) June 20, 2016
Lebron literally dominated every aspect of the finals. Every statistic. And people still wanna argue against his finals MVP? BLASPHEMY
— Trigga (@BryceTreggs) June 20, 2016
