The Cleveland Cavaliers mercilessly destroyed the Atlanta Hawks in Game 4 for a 118-88 win, and incidentally a sweep.

LeBron James didn’t play much in the second half of the fourth quarter, which allowed for a touching moment between James and embattled head coach David Blatt:

“You deserve it, you deserve it.”

If we’re keeping score, this is LeBron James’ fifth straight trip to the NBA Finals. The only other players to do that in NBA history were from the 1960s era Boston Celtics.

This will also be the Cavaliers’ second finals appearance in franchise history. The last time they were there was in 2007, before James left for Miami.

Maybe this time they’ll win a game.

They’ll face either the Houston Rockets or (most likely) the Golden State Warriors in the Finals, which tip off on June 4.
