Not even close, and a year unlike any other ended they way they all have so far -- with him still waiting for an NBA title. He scored 21 points for Miami, shook a few hands afterward, and departed before most of the Mavs tugged on their championship hats and T-shirts. Bosh had 19, Mario Chalmers 18 and Wade 17 for the Heat. Neither team deserved this championship more than the other, but Dallas earned it.
Make no mistake: Miami lost the Finals, but the blame will be directed at James. Even he knew that after the way he left Cleveland with "The Decision" and all the animus that generated not just in Ohio but around the entire league, the only way he could silence some critics was with a title. Still, he got even more criticism -- and a thinly veiled jab from his former owner with the Cavaliers, Dan Gilbert, who reveled in the moment on Twitter.
And the winning owner, Mark Cuban, took what may be perceived as a jab as well: "I could care less about the Heat," he said. Mavs coach Rick Carlisle joined a highly elite group, those with NBA titles as both a player and a head coach. Only 10 other men are on that list, including the presumably retired-for-good Phil Jackson, one of Carlisle's mentors in K.
Jones, and Heat President Pat Riley -- who led Miami past Dallas in , and was the mastermind of what the Heat did last summer by getting James, Wade and Bosh on the same team with an eye on becoming a dynasty. But even after 72 wins this season, including playoffs, the Heat lost the last game. And that means this year was a disappointment -- except to just about everyone else in the NBA, or so it would seem.
We don't run fast or jump high. These guys had each other's backs. We played the right way. We trusted the pass. This is a phenomenal thing for the city of Dallas. Hating the Heat became the NBA's craze this season, and the team knew it had no shortage of critics, everyone from Cleveland where "Cavs for Mavs" shirts were popular during these Finals to Chicago the city James and Wade both flirted with last summer and just about every place in between lining up to take shots at Miami.
Sorry, Cowboys -- your long-held moniker might have to be ceded to your city's NBA club.
