David Blatt was philosophical in defeat after his Cleveland Cavaliers team went down 4-2 against the Golden State Warriors in the NBA final.
A 105-97 victory gave the Warriors an unassailable lead in the seven-game series.
Blatt said: "Not every story has a happy ending. It doesn't mean it's a bad story. This was not. This was a good story. And I'm appreciative to everyone that was part of this."
