Give him credit. He's 33 and almost done and his physical skills are waning, but he still knows
how to play. Having waited 11 years in the league for his chance, he's stepping up on the big stage,
and not just with three point shooting (although that last straight-on bank shot; was that planned?),
but with great defense and team play. He knows this could likely be a once-in-a-lifetime moment, and he's playing like it too. He could indeed be the difference between the Heat winning and losing.
And, for once, I can actually cheer for the Heat. All of them are finally showing the kind of heart (and
grit) that it takes to be champions. Both Wade and Bosh are not 100%, and Wade's skills appear to be starting to fade, but they're still getting it done, and Lebron is finally stepping up when it matters (bad 3 point shot near the end notwithstanding). If they beat OKC, no one will have doubted that they are true champions, and they'll earn it, the hard way. People may still not like them, but they'll have to respect them.
