The Miami Heat are NBA champions once again after winning over the San Antonio Spurs in Game 7 of the finals and after LeBron James won his second straight finals MVP, there are many questions in South Florida as to what the team will look like next year.
James is a sure lock to stay with Miami, while Wade, despite being 31 and having knee problems, is a stalwart for the Heat and a face of the franchise, so he will likely stay as well. But after scoring zero points in Game 7 and looking like less of a factor than usual, Bosh may be on his way out of Miami despite having over $60 million left on his contract. The team is building a dynasty in Florida and Bosh at 29 can still be a prime factor.
James will have all the attention again as many try to compare him to Jordan, but now he is on that path for real, as he has won two straight finals and two straight MVPs along with all his other skills and accolades. James is by far the best player in the world right now and the more he wins the more legendary he will become. This run was probably the last one for the Spurs and they came as close as anyone could come to winning and NBA title without winning one.
James did his best in Game 6 to stop that and with Ray Allen hitting a clutch three, the Spurs had no chance but to try and win Game 7 with all they had, but it wasn't enough. James was amazing again and he averaged nearly a triple double for the series, with over 30 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists and he added 37 points and 12 rebounds in Game 7.
The Heat won 95-88 with some strong play from Wade and some clutch shots down the stretch, including a jumper from James that put the team up four with 30 seconds left. The Spurs got 24 points from Tim Duncan and Kawhi Leonard was fantastic with 16 rebounds, but now the team will have to look back and wonder what happened.
