An emotional LeBron James wailed, "Cleveland, this is for you!!" in front of a stunned crowd in Oakland. Yes, Cleveland's long running sports curse was finally put to rest when Akron native "King James" carried his team, and entire city, on his back, which culminated in the Cavaliers dramatic 2016 NBA Finals victory over the powerhouse Golden State Warriors in seven games. The Cavs even managed to win game 7 on the road.

Presented here is an original ring that was given to a team employee by team owner Dan Gilbert for their contributions during that magical title run. The face displays a bold maroon Cavs "C" with NBA Championship trophy. This size 10, 75-gram ring made of a base metal showcases the employee's last name ("BERTS") on one of the shanks, with 2016 and the state of Ohio also displayed. The other shank features the Cleveland city skyline, the CAVS name, as well as CLE. The Roman numeral under the Detroit-Superior Bridge is intentional. It’s the number 52, which is the number of years it took for the franchise to win an NBA title. A scattering of CZ's and colored stones are located on the top, and underneath the band, while the red stones signify the Cavs' Game 3, 5, 6 and 7 victories. The ring is in excellent condition, showing very little wear.
