The Heat losing the 2011 Finals created the horrible precedent of fans counting Finals appearances as a similar achievement to winning the Finals in order to justify the hype and to maintain their preconceived top 10 rankings. I remember in the 90s when Shaq lost the Finals to Hakeem/Rockets and that Finals loss was used against Shaq when ranking him with other all-time greats. The Lakers losing the 2004 Finals was also used against Kobe. But after Miami lost in 2011, the rules were rewritten to where players get as much credit for making the NBA Finals as winning one. There is zero penalty now for losing the Finals when we discuss legacies.

Kobe fan here. Lebron was definitely the best player at the time but that makes that "decision" more egregious because if the best player has 2 other perreniel allstars how does anyone else win?

[@ant4613]

Considering Lebron was the best player in the Eastern Conference (and arguably the NBA) and he joined the other best player in the Eastern Conference along with another franchise player in Chris Bosh, getting to the Finals isn't that grand of an achievement in an all-time weak conference and is massively overhyped by Lebron fans. So yes, definitely not a failure because they won 2 championships, but a disappointment considering the circumstances and the expectations.

[@TheLusianPopa]

correct. Given how weak the East was and the fact that all 3 were in their absolute prime....they should have won more. also we have to look at the competition 2011 Dallas was very much beatable and 14 San Antonio were all old except Kawhi They did underachieve

Yes it was a failure. They struggled against the San Antonio Spurs and Dallas Mavericks so stop it. They played a young Oklahoma City team the first finals. And they weren't old because Dwayne Wade played well in Chicago and LeBron won the bubble championship years later

[@AilmanF2P]

Spurs were a mini dynasty, the Mavs were a better team. How are you comparing 2011 to 2020, thats a 9 year difference. D-Wade was old, there was a reason why he had no issue giving Lebron the reigns.

Losing to the Mavs in 2011 was inexcusable. The Heat should have easily won that Championship. We won back to back in 2012 and 2013. By 2014 D Wade was in decline and often injured and Bosh was over sold. He was basically a high end role player for his Heat tenure.

What is LeBron James skill set? Compared to Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant

[@michaeljohnson7945]

It was successful in that Miami won two titles, but it also was disappointing how Miami did it. In 2011, the Heat lose to an underdog Dallas because LeBron James choked shockingly in the closing periods. In 2012, Miami won the title in a strike-shortened season against a young Oklahoma City team. In 2013 , Miami needed Ray Allen's legendary shot in Game 6 vs. San Antonio to keep the Heat from being eliminated. Miami still had to scrap to win Game 7, as San Antonio was down by 2 with one minute left. In 2014, San Antonio won the series by the largest point differential in NBA Finals history. In some of those games, the Spurs were embarrassing the Heat. Moreover, that 27-game win streak in 2012-13 was arguably the only stretch where Miami looked like a fluid, dominant team. They struggled at times meshing on the court (almost looking clunky), and teams like Boston (2012) and Indiana (2013 and 2014) pushed them harder than expected. Things just didn't look as easy as it should have been.
