The torch has been passed, the blueprint and path had been laid, the executive has been praised and awarded... the Heat are now legitmately here! Not that they weren't before but finally closing the BIG chapter of defeating the Boston Celtics, who they were modeled after, they can now actually focus on bringing those "5, 6, 7" titles to South Beach...
Gotta give it up to Dwyane for coming out with that amount of energy last night, really put the C's on their heels...
Serena's been loving the sideline appearances these days...
Hurdle crossed....Lebron now looks forward to the next round and beyond
Another dagger 3...another stone cold reaction...ANOTHER "Miami Ugg" appearance!
I must say, I held those Lebron 8 PSs in my hands for the first time a couple of days ago...I was not impressed!
"I probably will" be back next season...The words of Doc Rivers at the post-game presser. A shortened season and return of the healthy core can actually bring that cliche "one more shot" into play but...is it really worth it? The new kids have established that it's their block now!
Redemption must taste sweet! The job is still incomplete but this one had to be satisfying! How's Comic Sans-Dan Gilbert been doing lately?

...I just hope they can close it out, cuz I actually don't like their chances in a Game 7, with guys like Marc and Zach who can get easy buckets in the final seconds of a game.
Looks like Kevin took a page out of Nazr Mohammed's book with the ID design
The plaid wearing Phil takes his "last" peak after exit interviews and heads off to Montana
Bonus:
RIP to Robert "Tractor" Traylor who was found dead in his Puerto-Rican apartment after sufferening a heart attack. Can't remember the name of those kicks but these were a decent pair of ballin' kicks back in the day.
