Utah, the nearest place to watch NBA, is 5 hours away from Mountain Home. I have never looked forward to drive to Salt Lake City as much as this one. Never in my life I would imagine that I could watch Lebron James, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love live!
The game began at 7pm but Ju and I were there early to take pictures around the arena. It is Ju's first NBA game but she wasn't as excited at first. She assumed it was the same as the D-League till the game enters the second half.
The arena was packed and the crowd were awesome with most supporting the home team and only a handful supported the Cavaliers. We managed to catch some close glimpse of Kyrie Irving who was training hard way before the game. His hardworking paid off as he was the top performer for the Cavaliers. Lebron's performance was below par even though he got them back to the game late in last quarter and score last 6 crucial points. The game was thrilling as the Jazz and Cavaliers were tied at 100 with 3.9 seconds to go and Jazz had the possession. Gordon Hayward took a pass and score a buzzer beater to win the game for Jazz.
The whole arena roared as if the Jazz had won the NBA finals! This game worth every penny we spent! Love it!
