■ The fact that Stephen Curry averaged 26.8 points, 9.4 assists and 8 rebounds a game in the series and didn’t receive any votes for M.V.P. says a lot about Durant’s dominant performance. The competition may have been closer had Curry not had a terrible Game 4, in which he scored just 14 points in the Warriors’ loss.

■ Despite having nearly the entire roster eligible for free agency, the Warriors are expected to bring the entire core back next year. It’s not a stretch to say the Warriors have the seeds for a dynasty, with two titles in three seasons to go with a record-setting three-year regular season run (207-39 record). But considering the Cavaliers’ dominance in the Eastern Conference playoffs, there is little to reason these teams will not be back next season for a fourth finals matchup in a row.

■ LeBron James is now 3 for 8 in career trips to the finals, but assigning any blame to him would seem unfair since he averaged a triple-double in the series, putting up 33.6 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists a game. He and Kyrie Irving were phenomenal for most of the series, but there will be plenty of hand-wringing to come over the Cavs’ roster. Kevin Love, who disappeared in Game 5, will be in the hot seat.

■ The Warriors will hold a victory parade in Oakland on Thursday at 10 a.m. Pacific. The parade will begin at Broadway and 11th St. and will end at the Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center. Fans are allowed to assemble for the parade as early as 5 a.m.
