Last Playoff Meeting: This is the first meeting between the Cavaliers and Spurs.
The Cavaliers, led by superstar LeBron James, entered the 2007 Finals looking for their first franchise championship, as well as the first championship for a pro team based out of Cleveland since the Cleveland Browns won the 1964 National Football League Championship. However, the Cavs were considered heavy underdogs against the 3-time champion Spurs. Their veteran leadership and championship experience overwhelmed the Cavs as they were swept by the Spurs after two blowouts at home and two close ones in Cleveland.
