wweecwwcwtnanba1928 that Mavs team was great and underrated. But let’s be honest if LeBron would have gone off like we use too seeing Wade and Bosh would have followed and they would have won. But at the end of day this helped LeBron. After this Mavs series he became one of the most mentally though players ever. This loss helped him become greater.

Why was this at Miami but game one was in okc

[@losangelescardinals]

When you really think about it this series changed the NBA forever. They beat the best OKC team that was just about to lose one of their greatest pieces. Harden becomes a superstar with Houston, KD leaves for GS in a couple years. Derek Fisher becomes a coach and smashes Matt Barnes ex-wife and we get the famous “violence is never the answer, except when it is” quote. The geography of the NBA shifts dramatically, even this coming off-season Ray Allen leaves fr Miami and Boston is weakened heavily by his absence. This leads to the infamous Brooklyn trade which over the years brought the Celtics Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum and Kyrie Irving. Not to mention Boston also were able to sign big name free agents with all the money they have, such as Gordon Hayward, a superstar from the Utah Jazz. Meanwhile the Jazz draft a rookie by the name of Donovan Mitchell, who years earlier had seen his idol make his decision to go to South Beach at a YMCA. LeBron James. It all come full circle
