By now, you have probably heard about the Miami Heat trio of LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh having a sit-down with Oprah Winfrey for some exclusive interviews soon after the NBA Finals on her new network called Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN). You know what that means: the revealing of personal, deep, hidden emotions never revealed before. Or something along those lines.

Word is that some members of the 2012 NBA Champion Miami Heat are still a bit hung over—literally—after defeating the Oklahoma City for the NBA’s crown just one week ago today. The Heat selected Arnett Moultrie, a 6’11” Power Forward from Mississippi State with their 27th overall pick in the draft, but they traded his rights to the Philadelphia 76ers for the 45th overall pick, Justin Hamilton, and a future first round pick. Moultrie is a long, athletic big that could probably
It has been nothing but a big party for the members of the Miami Heat since winning the NBA Championship over the Thunder last week. The trio of LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, in particular, have been very active in joining a variety of talk shows over the past week.

In a not-so-shocking development, Mike Miller will have his ailing back checked by one of the best (apparently) in Dr. Barth Green.

His wife doesn’t think so either. After being a non-factor for much of the playoffs,
The Miami Heat celebrated their 2011-2012 championship today with a parade, thanks in large part to LeBron James’ monstrous performance throughout the entire playoffs. James posted pedestrian numbers (for his standards) in his playoff run last season, averaging 23.7 points on 46.6 percent shooting, 8.4 rebounds and 5.9 assists. This postseason, however, his performance level returned to his do-it-all Cleveland days, minus the fourth quarter disappearances.

The Miami Heat celebrated their NBA Championship with a parade today. With that, the story line of the 2011-2012 season finally came to a conclusion, which means the beginning of everything else from free agency to trade rumors.
