Even before the NBA Finals began, some people thought that the series would end in a Warriors’ sweep. Then, after Golden State blew out Cleveland in the first two games, the list of people predicting a sweep became bigger and bigger. These predictions are now looking pretty good as the Warriors beat the Cavs in Game 3 Wednesday night in Cleveland 118-113. Late in the 4th quarter, Cleveland looked like they were going to win, but Golden State closed out the game on an 11-0 run to take a 3-0 lead in the series. Here are some tweets from people during the 4th quarter who were confident Cleveland would come out on top…
You might want to take those brooms and shove them… #NBAFinals #GoCavs

It's true today.
Just one more quarter until some of y'all start believing it, too. https://t.co/pmQyJDLj5G

Kevin Durant is a fake superstar. Good player, not as good as advertised. Felt this before his 7-for-33 abomination tonight.
