Heat wins second straight NBA championship
It was great game. The Miami Heat and San Antonio Spurs gave it all but in the end the Heat emerge Victorious. From the 1st to the 4th Quarter, nobody new who would end up winning the championship. There were several lead changes that it is hard to speculate who would win.
If the San Antonio Spurs won, it would be their fifth Championship. If they won that would mean that every time the Spurs reached the NBA finals, they end up winning the championship. But unfortunately they didn't. I would have been a great record. Most people were rooting for the San Antonio based on their NBA finals record.
Lebron James and Dwayne Wade combined for a total of 60 points. James scored 37 points and was named Finals MVP. He joins Bill Rusell and Michael Jordan in the prestigious list of people who got back to back regular season and finals MVP awards.
It wasn't a big game for Chris Bosh who did not score but contributed 7 rebounds. The hero of Game 6, Ray Allen, did not score as well. Help came from Shane Battier who scored a total of 18 points which all came beyond the arc.

On the San Antonio side, Danny Green scored only 5 points. Kawli Leonard had a great game with 16 rebounds and 19 points. Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker combined with 28 points, 9 assists and 3 steals.Tim Duncan leads the Spurs in scoring with 24 points.
Rumors has emerged about Tim Duncan's retirement. Before the end of the series, there were speculations that Tim Duncan would retire after this season if they won the championship. Now it is still up in the air whether this would be Duncan's last season.
During the awarding ceremony, they gave their praises to Lebron and Shane Battier. I think they should have included Ray Allen. Without his heroics, the Heat's championship bid would have ended in Game 6.
So next season am I rooting for the Heat? I am not sure. I root for all the players in Heat roster except for Lebron James. I know he could score a lot but most of the time you couldn't rely on him when it matters most. I guess we will have to wait next season if they will be able to defend their title
