A general view of the Quicken Loans Arena during Game Three of the NBA Finals between the San Antonio Spurs and Cleveland Cavaliers on June 12, 2007 at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio.

No team in NBA history has ever comeback from a 0-3 deficit.

As for the Cavs, playing in their first NBA Finals in their 37-year-old history, the end might come a lot sooner than anyone expected.

Where did the team go that took four straight games from the Detroit Pistons last series?

LeBron James #23 of the Cleveland Cavaliers falls back on his follow through after shooting a 3-point shot in Game Three of the NBA Finals on June 12, 2007 at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio.

For one, James hasn’t been playing been as dominant as he had against the Pistons, but it’s been his supporting class that let the 22-year-old down last night.

In what turned out to be the second-lowest scoring finals game (75-72) in NBA history (Fort Wayne defeated Syracuse 74-71 in 1955) the Cavs find themselves facing a hill that might be to tough to climb.

As for me, unless the Cavs can find someway to score from guys not named James, I’m going home on Friday without knowing how much “Cleveland Rocks.”

The only good news is James is a Cav for the next couple years meaning in the future I can be right back here with an older, more experienced James.
