Cavs' rings feature reminder that Warriors blew 3-1 lead
For the Cleveland Cavaliers, 3-1 has a nice ring to it.
The Cavs were the first team in NBA history to overcome a 3-1 series deficit in The Finals, and their championship rings - which they received Tuesday night before their season opener - include a little reminder of that feat.

Richard Jefferson shared a picture on Snapchat of the interior side of the ring, which has gemstones depicting the results of the seven-game series against the Golden State Warriors.

At 165 grams, the 6.5-carat championship ring is the heaviest one ever made, according to the supplier, Kay Jeweler.
Nice touch, indeed.
