'Cleveland, this is for you!': LeBron gives emotional postgame interview

It was an emotional scene after the Cleveland Cavaliers finally snapped the city's 52-year title drought.

Leading the celebrations for the Cavaliers was LeBron James, the hometown kid burdened with the task of rewriting Cleveland's history. He was lampooned at every step and scrutinized like no player before him, but after nine seasons in the wine and gold, he finally brought home a title for the Land.

An emotionally overwrought James couldn't help but burst into tears while being interviewed on the podium.

"I gave everything that I had. I put my heart and my blood and my sweat and my tears into this game ... Cleveland, this is for you!"
