Kramerica Industries Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 No, that lost it's cache' after last year. It was fun to imitate when the Heat lost to Dallas in 2011, but now it's just something where ardent Heat haters only grasp to it by taking Lebron literally, when he was only feeding the crowd.I already resigned myself to three Heat championships under the Triple Alliance. That said, I hope they never get there. Two titles in a row is enough for the insufferable douches on South Beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiddySicks Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 That look Lebron had on his face when he first hoisted the Larry O'Brien trophy and the Finals MVP trophy was absolutely PRICELESS. It was a perfect dig at the haters. He earned that look. On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.)

dbadefense1990 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 To all hell in honesty...Game 7 was one of the most perfect, roller coaster games I've ever seen. Fluidly-called game, heartstopping shot after shot after shot, and the so many tic-tac chess moments. But at the end of the day, it's the Spurs showing age and the Heat showing how they got those 66 wins in the regular season. Congrats Miami on back-to-back titles...now let's forget this and move on to baseball season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbadefense1990 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 So here's some "pointless" factoids:-In the last 6 years, Kobe's Lakers and LeBron's Heat have won back-to-back titles in tail ends of three-straight Finals appearances. Both have won back-to-back series MVP's. Each had to win a Game 7 of the Finals to successfully complete the repeat attempt.-LeBron has won both his titles on the 3rd Thursday in June. Last year, the Heat wrapped up the Finals in Game 5 on June 21, and now they won a Game 7 on this 3rd Thursday, June 20.-Since 1998, Kobe, Duncan and now LeBron have won an NBA Finals Game 7 in their careers. And for all of you math freaks, they won their respective games exactly three days apart on a Thursday in June in the calendar (Kobe on June 17, 2010, LeBron on June 20, 2013, Duncan on June 23, 2005).

Game 6 against Dallas ended 95-92, and if the Spurs had held on in Game 6, that game may have conceivably ended 95-92. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Houston Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 I acknowledge his talent and understand he'll win at least two more before his time is done, but I sure as hell don't like him as a person or respect the fanbase that idolizes him.And I'm not directly replying to Bucfan because I don't feel like looking at that stupid face throughout the rest of this thread.

Xist2inspire Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Congrats to the Heat. So glad Lebron 100% delivered in a meaningful game from start to finish, so at least some of the irrational stuff will cease. Now on to more pressing matters: 1 superstar can only get you so far, and the Heat have proven that unless some changes are made, they're very close to a quick decline. What will Riley do now? Hopefully Duncan doesn't retire, though Ginobili needs to go ASAP. Tradition is the foundation of innovation, and not the enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnWis97 Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 I really don't think Le Bron is that bad of a guy. He mishandled "The Decision." We forgive much worse athletes for much worse stuff than that much quicker.As much as I dislike the whole concept of "building super teams", I actually do want LeBron to end up with a good number of rings. He toiled for seven years in Cleveland and got nothing put around him--Big time free agents don't go to non-cosmopolitan cities where the weather sucks--and everyone acted like not winning a bunch of titles meant something was wrong. So I am glad for him, but I really, really, hope this superteam crap is not going to go on forever, or just contract my team now.

First thing out of his mouth was giving respect to the Spurs then yes, he did stick it to his detractors. He gave them a taste of their own medicine. That's not snotty or egotistic, that's a grown man getting fed up with the hate and taking a moment he earned to shove his frustration in their faces.I can't tell anyone how to feel but it seems like taking shots at LeBron, at this point is just not warranted.
