Chosen: A deep rewind of the Cleveland Cavaliers’ 46-year title quest

Welcome to a moment in history

A feature-length edition of Secret Base’s series Rewinder, in which they pick an iconic moment in sports history, then go back in time to explain all the preceding narrative and context that will help you appreciate the magic of witnessing that moment. In this case, they’re focusing on the final seconds of Game 7 of the 2016 NBA Finals, with the Cleveland Cavaliers on the verge of defeating the Golden State Warriors to win the first championship in the 46-year history of the franchise. It would be Cleveland’s first title in any major pro sport since the Browns won the 1964 NFL Championship.
