Cavs-Warriors 2016 Finals

GS, a 73-9 team averaging 70 wins the past 2 regular seasons, goes up 2-0, then 3-1...then go on to lose in 7. Unprecedented choke and upset.

Considering they were down 3-1 themselves and even more healthier the series before I don't think you could say this

They still came back and won. They were still an all time great team by the time the Finals started, went up 2-0 --> 3-1 and were still relatively healthy. They also lost with homecourt :wink:
