Miamiiiiii Heeeeeeaaaaaaattt!
For Rony Seikaly! Ron Rothstein! Glen Rice! Matt Geiger! Tim Hardaway! PJ Brown! Zo and Shaq and Wade and all the brilliant men on this year's team! For all those shaky trips to the Miami Arena! Go Heat! Whooooooooooo!
I've been a Heat fan since my dad started taking me to games in the team's shaky early days, it's the only team I really care about, and this win is like sweet, final vindication. I've been up late every game night, often by myself, slamming my fist into the carpet so I don't wake my girlfriend. Oh, man. I want to hug Dwayne and then get a beer and catch up with Rony. Thank you, Pat Riley! I've been waiting for this.

Ugh. I was pulling for Denver, but whatever. At least this season is OVER.
Congrats to you. I guess.

That's exactly how I felt about the White Sox winning the world series last year. I've been a White Sox fan since the womb, it was a dream come true :)

Rony Seikaly - the man whose teams win long awaited first championships long after he has left and then people say part of the championship was for him.

And don't forget Antoine and Gary Payton!
