Golden State Warriors win first NBA title in 40 years after beating Cleavland 105-97 in Game 6.
The Warriors won the NBA Finals four games to two, winning the last three contests.
"They were all in it just to win," coach Steve Kerr said of his players. "This is an amazing group of guys."
Meanwhile, Andre Iguodala, who started zero games during the regular season but was able to inserted into the first five during the Finals, was named MVP of the series.

Iguodala and Stephen Curry led the game after scoring 25 points each.
The Warriors won the game by scoring seven more three-pointers -- a margin that was larger until J.R. Smith hit four late, long-range shots -- and forcing the Cavs into 19 turnovers.
"Our guys did more than anyone could expect to put themselves and to put our organization in the situation (where they played for a title)," Cleveland head coach David Blatt, also in his first NBA season, said. "Not every story has a happy ending; it doesn't mean it's a bad story. This was not. This was a good story."
