Miami is on Fire
The Miami Heat are on top of the world again after winning their second championship in a row. The champs ended the Spurs hopes and dreams by winning game Seven 95-88. Miami's LeBron James won his second Finals MVP two years in a row to go along with the regular season MVP trophy again. The Finals had the second highest rating ever on ABC.
After 3 quarters of game 7, the Heat were only beating San Antonio by 1 point. King James led the way for the Heat by scoring 37 points and grabbing 12 rebounds. It took everything that LeBron James, Dwayne Wade, Chris Bosh and the rest of the Heat had to defeat the Spurs. This was extra deflating for Tim Duncan and the Spurs because two nights before, the Spurs were close to winning game 6 and the NBA Finals. Duncan scored 24 points and totaled 12 rebounds for the Spurs, but missed a shot and a put back under the basket with about 50 seconds left with the Spurs trailing by two.
The other part of Miami's big 3, Dwayne Wade dropped 23 points and had 10 rebounds. Chris Bosh was held scoreless but Miami's Shane Battier hit 5-3 pointers to help Miami to another ring. On the Spurs side, Kawhi Leonard had 19 points and 16 rebounds, Ginobili had 18 points but Parker managed just 10 points on 3-of-12 shooting. LeBron and the Heat should be favored to go for the infamous 3-peat next season.
