Six years later, the San Antonio Spurs still have that winning NBA Finals formula of good defense and a little luck on offense.
As LeBron James continues to garner more accolades and praise, the comparisons between he and Michael Jordan will only grow louder.
If anyone can stand in the way of LeBron James and the Miami Heat winning their second-straight NBA title, it's Tony Parker and the San Antonio Spurs.
The San Antonio Spurs still have that winning NBA Finals formula of good defense and a little luck on offense.
Four victories. That's all that separates the San Antonio Spurs from furthering its dynasty, or the Miami Heat from an elite place in history.
The Indiana Pacers pushed the Miami Heat to the brink only to come up short in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals. But their play made a major announcement to the country and the NBA that the Pacers are here to stay.
LeBron James and the Miami Heat are off the NBA Finals for the third straight season, with their series against the San Antonio Spurs set to get underway on Thursday. SI's Ian Thomsen joined Toucher & Rich on Tuesday to discuss the series, and shoot down a Ray Allen rumor.
From time to time, we find a photo that is just so ridiculous we feel we absolutely must share with you.
Game 7. Eastern Conference Finals. The last time the Miami Heat were in this situation, they were coming off a convincing Game 6 win in 2012 and blew out the Boston Celtics 101-88. What a difference a year makes.
I enjoy watching Roy Hibbert play basketball. I enjoy watching Lebron James play basketball. I enjoy watching Roy Hibbert play basketball against Lebron James. In no way do I want to have sex with either of them, while they play basketball or otherwise.
As the final horn in a Game 6 loss to the Indiana Pacers was sounding, LeBron James walked toward several of his Miami Heat teammates to shake some hands and share a couple of quick words.
LeBron James scored 30 points, Udonis Haslem made his last eight shots on the way to a 16-point night, and the Miami Heat used a dominant third quarter to turn things around and beat the Indiana Pacers 90-79 in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals on Thursday.
The Heat may have fallen to the Pacers in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals last night, but they didn't go down easy... Well, actually, yes they did.
Someone has to say it, so I'll be the bad guy. No, wait. Dwyane Wade is the bad guy.
Pacers coach Frank Vogel walked into Monday's practice with a simple message for players as they adapt to Miami's new wrinkle - using LeBron James in the post.
The Miami Heat are going to have quite a challenge in front of them from the opening tip of Game 4 in the Eastern Conference Finals. Miami must find a way to once again play a near perfect half against the defensive-minded Indiana Pacers.
In many ways, LeBron, Wade & Co. strikes me as Chicago's new version of the Detroit Pistons' "Bad Boys," the hated mountain that the Michael Jordan-era Bulls once had to climb. And while losing to the Heat again is disappointing indeed, just like with the Pistons, this series loss will only make victory all the sweeter when the Bulls finally do beat them.
Carlos Boozer finished with 26 points and 14 rebounds for the Bulls, who were without Derrick Rose for the 99th straight game. Nate Robinson and Jimmy Butler missed potential tying 3-pointers on the final possession of the season for Chicago, which dropped the last four games of the series.
It may seem like months ago, but it was just last week when the world was reintroduced to Filomena 'Phyllis' Tobias.
Jimmy Butler has been a huge part of this Chicago basketball season even existing in the second round of the playoffs, which, while not exactly a medal of honor, is still better than many expected with all the obstacles that had to be dealt with—no superstar, injuries and illnesses, Scalabrine withdrawal, etc.
As I sit and type this out it feels like I'm back in the fall dissecting numbers to quantify Jay Cutler putting up a clunker of a performance in an important game. Except it's not fall and the game isn't being played outdoors.
It's time to stop the pain and the suffering. It's time to put the bull down.
The Miami Heat and Chicago Bulls are getting ready for Friday's pivotal game 3.
The Miami-looking lady, passionately giving Joakim Noah the one-finger salute at last night's Bulls-Heat game, has been identified.
If you have any recollection of the Miami Heat against the New York Knicks in a violent best-of-five, then last night's Bulls game looked awfully familiar.
