The LeBron ring chase is a never ending punchline. Before he finally won the NBA Championships, everybody had some sort of joke to crack on either his lack of a ring, or his comparison to other greats. Now that he finally has it, jokes are starting to come in on how he finally got it, how late it came, how he only has one, and other various knocks on him. One way or another, people are going to love

What it must be like to be in Miami right now. Miami is already debatably one of the best places in the country to party, so the city must be exploding. Not sleeping for like three days is pretty impressive, mind you. I’m sure he found a cat nap somewhere in between, but it must be amazing to be associated with the Heat right now. On the other hand, let me just say something. I have always had respect

Heat somehow overcame turnovers late. Lebron played great D on KD last 2 minutes. Heat looking confident esp with 2 more in Miami. #Finals

I have one glaring issue with Scott Brooks in this game. When Kevin Durant got into foul trouble in the third quarter, he was forced to be taken out. Alright, no problem, Russell Westbrook time. But then he takes out Westbrook along side Durant, and the Heat stage a quick comeback. In the finals, no matter what, the Thunder should have at least two of Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, and James Harden on the floor at all times. No

My Pops was never an NBA guy, but he would've been all over this OKC team with how they handle their biz. Always anti-glitz, pro humility.

If the Thunder have something going for them (besides their incredible talent, youth, and other massive assets), it’s being a major fan favorite for the general NBA fan. What’s not to like? They have no track record of any negativity, they are young, their home-court has one of the most loyal fans in the league, and that is only naming a few aspects of the Thunder. Amick later acknowledged that he was more or less referring to Scott Brooks

I haven’t followed Brandon Roy in any which way since his apparent “retirement”, so this comes relatively shocking to me. I wrote him off, chalking him as just one of those players who’s health never allowed his career to take off. That being said, I’m very happy he is trying to make a return, as Brandon Roy was a phenomenal player for the Blazers for a few years. His possible landing spots have been rumored as being Miami or

Heat vs. Thunder Finals. LeBron vs. KD for the whole enchilada. This is why the lockout needed to be lifted. #howu

So be it. Heat advance, and begin immediate preparation for the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Celtics looked sluggish in the second half, and it was truly a disappointing loss, especially considering their cloudy future. The Heat are the better team, and it showed tonight, especially with Chris Bosh in the lineup. The storyline is this; LeBron James vs. Kevin Durant. Yes, both teams are great, and players like Russell Westbrook, Dwayne Wade, James Harden, and Chris Bosh are all

For the record - even if the Celts lose tonight, I'd bet anything that KG, Pierce & Rondo are in Boston next season.

Might I add, he later stated he does not expect Ray Allen to return, which has much to do with the emergence of Avery Bradley, as well as the opportunity he has to land one last pretty contract. Regardless, this doesn’t necessarily look like a make or break year to me for the Celtics anymore. Yes, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett are getting old. But they have at least a few years left in the tank before they slide,

Rivers on his team: "I think they kind of understand that Rondo's the leader of the team, everybody else plays w/ Rondo."

On a team that features three future Hall of Famers who are not far removed from their prime, we are watching before our very eyes Rajon Rondo go from being a great point guard to an elite, franchise changer. And that is saying a lot. I was always a fan of Rondo; he passes extremely well, he is a great ball handler, and has fantastic moves at the hoop. But not only has he been hitting jump shots, he
