Congrats Heat. Great series to both teams.

I will say I am at least happy for the Birdman to get a ring. Unlike that old fart Howard, Birdman has definitely put in the effort for the team & has been worthy of a Finals appearance for quite a while in his 12 seasons.

Well, one has to congratulate the Heat and their fans. Lebron and Bosh's pilgrimage to South Beach was definitely justified with two straight O'brien trophies. Hat's off to them.
As for the rest of the league, the goal now is to keep them from becoming a dynasty.

congrats to the Heat... LeBron showed us why he is the best in the league.... the Spurs were daring him to take those shots and he just put them down their throats...
pure sportsmanship from both sides at the end... that is great to see the level of respect they have for each other... unfortunately one side has to lose... and this time it was mostly Manu... ball handling was atrocious, turnovers... it was different to see Duncan show emotion at the end after he missed that hook shot...
on to NEXT YEAR!!!

Best series in a looooong time. The heat played very well and I was surprised at how the spurs kept it so close with such horrible play.
Lebron is still a child the way he stomps his feet and whines when things don't go his way

Ok enough Yum posts. Great series. I hope they come back intact. That Leonard kid is amazing. Duncan still got it. Parker is better than I can imagine.
Amazing win by us when Bosh, Miller, and Ray go 0 for. But I give credit a huge plus on defense. He still single covered Duncan and held his own.

You're going to compare that 1 instance to Lebron stomping his feet and whining after every call in the series? Haha ok. Duncan was angry at himself, not blaming the refs and looking for a foul. I guess next time my 3 year old does the same ill just shrug it off as emotion and ignore it
He's a man child. Great basketball player but still a child

LeBron is the iPhone of basketball players. Everyone else is just a poser.

Nothing to be bitter about, its not like I lost a championship. I feel bad for them but that's it.
I don't watch that stuff so I'm unaware of that. Gary Neal did it to when he went to the floor and got that travel call, he slammed the ball down like a child. Things like that and little out bursts I can't respect. Not at the level they claim to be on anyways.
Like I said, Lebron is a great player and there is no denying that but I don't see wade react like Lebron when things don't go his way. Call it knit picking if you want but you can't deny that's what he does and it is childish.

He got lucky talking to Crawford like that in the last game. Usually, that's a tech.

yeah the music at the club is not any indication at all about the team's preference - it's what the club happens to be playing. I guarantee you the Heat did not give Story a playlist prior to arriving at the club.
