【eroticism in romantic era】

This time they didn't blow the 3-1 lead. Golden State beat Cleveland to clinch the NBA championship in Oakland on eroticism in romantic eraMonday night, in doing so avenging last year's epic collapse that spawned a million memes.

That makes two titles in three years, with an NBA regular-season record for wins sandwiched in between -- so Warriors fans are now officially cleared to talk dynasty.

Kevin Durant was brilliant with 39 points for Golden State, but Monday's NBA Finals finale didn't disappoint on the comedy front either.

During the second quarter, Warriors forward David West and Cavaliers forward Tristan Thompson got heated -- and veeeryclose to one another, which led to this slapstick screen-grab.

But Game 5 was just getting warmed up.

A scary moment turned into a comedy session in the third quarter when Warriors guard Klay Thompson nearly took an ugly fall but was saved by teammate Draymond Green.

The Warriors' fan base, which is heavy on the Silicon Valley set and bandwagon riders, didn't escape roasting either.
