This was supposed to be their year. Supposed to be the year the face of the current NBA put himself and his team on top of the world.
People said as long as the Cavaliers got by the Magic and Howard, they would meet the Lakers in the finals, and were favorites to beat them on basketball's biggest stage.
There was one thing they didn't count on. One thing that was almost ...
