The Funny, Stupid Thing of the Night
Despite two straight championships and being on their way to their fourth-straight Finals appearance, this HEAT super-fan can still get frustrated at her team just like any good sports fan. This grandma still has plenty of fire when it comes to her favorite team, you can bet she’ll be yelling at her TV a lot come Thursday.
Congratulations HEAT and Spurs!

We may have grown accustomed to these two team’s greatness, but for the players it’s still an awesome feeling to know they get a chance at winning the NBA championship. Whether you’re a fan or not, it’s time to tip our hats to these incredible organizations on their amazing season.
Block of the Night
In what was an awesome series between the Spurs and Thunder in the Western Conference Finals, it’s only fitting that it took an extra frame to decide it. One of the deciding plays of overtime was definitely this clutch block by Spurs forward Kawhi Leonard on Thunder guard Russell Westbrook. As usual, defense was the key for the Spurs taking the series and will be key again against the HEAT.
