OKC will have plenty of opportunities. This isnt the last we see of them...hopefully they will learn from this. Westbrook needs to know when to push on the gas, and when to hit the breaks.
I will say a few things though: 1) i wonder how Wade feels handing over the Heat to LeBron (all media, everyone says 'LeBron and company', etc). 2) Im actually glad he got his ring so people will stop calling him some up and coming God of basketball. Now he'll realize its a lot harder to defend a chip. Its no pressure winning the first when everyone pretty much expects you to 'one day'. |

LEBRON MESSED AROUND AND GOT A TRIPLE DOUBLE. This puts to shame all the haters, and nay sayers. Lebron was most clutch in the biggest game of his life. The most defining moment to let you know that this Lebron James is the Lebron James you should fear:
Mario Chalmers is smiling and playing to the crowd, Lebron comes over to him and tells him to 'focus on these niggas....not(time to celebrate) yet. He's a man, hes the leader and he's the talent. NBA you've had your fun, the KING is HOME. |

Well Lebron got his ring after 3 tries and the huge difference was this year he didn't really tire that much in the playoffs. Stern has to be happy his top superstar finally got a ring and washes out last year's embarrassing moment of hanging the trophy to Cuban who hates him.
Thunder's youth and inexperience really showed badly during the Finals especially with turnover and sloppy shooting issues in almost all the games this series. |

Congrats to the Heat. Glad to see LeBron finally get his ring.
Not really sure how I feel about Juwan Howard getting one though. |

Now on to the draft to watch the Nuggets get nothing and the Wizards train wreck collect more cars.

Pat Riley is looking way too much like the Nature Boy. Way more coherent though...he also didn't slap himself in the face a dozen times to draw blood for no reason.

Congrats to the Heat, especially LeBron who has been doing some crazy shit the past few weeks. I still think he's a douchebag, but he's a great player.

Didn't take ESPN long but already proclaiming him the greatest player, Magic Johnson calling this the best finals ever, nobody can be better than Lebron for the next 5-10 years, and then calling everyone stupid who disagrees or might be a hater.
Barely have said anything about Wade and nothing about Bosh who proved to be a lot more important than people thought considering how badly the Heat missed him during most of the Cs-Heat series. |

Never said I hated the guy, it's just if owenbrown's rule were a legit NBA rule, this would have happened.
Hey man, nobody flops better than Divac. NOBODY! Not everyone buddy.

Because as DaveWadding so bluntly put it earlier, Lebron is a good basketball player, but he's still a huge douchebag.

ehhh i'm from Cleveland and I really don't think so. Lebron is young he wants to party and i'll tell you from a Clevelander standpoint there isn't anything really our city offers. All of the business up here are going down South, we have a high crime rate, the weather sucks, and the city is gross. A lot of people forget that the NBA is a business and that basketball is Lebron's job and how he gets paid. It's not right that he kind of gave up in the most important situation(Boston series) which is why i understand that would give a lot of people a reason to hate him. I just don't think Lebron really betrayed anybody or anything and that people think he did is wrong. It's just like saying you work for a company and they give you decent pay and they are a fairly decent company as far as being highly regarded goes, then another company comes in and offers you way more money in a better system. You can't tell me you wouldn't take that because if you wouldn't then there might be something wrong with you.

What does any of that have to do with Lebron being a good basketball player or being a huge douchebag IRL? My God, do you even bother reading what you typed before posting it or do you simply throw random fragments and sentences into the comment box and try to make a relevant statement?

Referring to the fact it was a shortened season. Played 3/4. Making a LeBron sucks in the 4th joke.

I see. Don't see how I missed that. He was quite the choke artist in the 4th quarter, but with next season going back to normal, let's see how good Lebron really is. I think a full season schedule is really going to test the Heat and I'm sure they'll make the playoffs again, I just don't see them repeating.

Yeah it was total bullshit that the Heat only had to play 66 games when the rest of the league had to play the full 82. Completely unfair.

ESPN (or at least on PtI and Wilbon) now trying to imply Lebron isn't a new Jordan but a new Magic Johnson so that the rings and his NBA Finals stats don't get trashed with the comparisons. Wilbon saying nobody in the East can even test Miami now although he did say trying to make a real dynasty is almost impossible especially with their cap problems and potential age issues years from now.
