Heat vs. Thunder in the Finals


Its The Miami Heat vs. Oklahoma Thunders in the 2012 NBA finals. this will be the third time for the heat to be in the finals and first for thunders since their relocation from Seattle to Oklahoma. This will be the first time both teams will be facing in the finals and in my opinion it will be an exciting one.

Finally!
since their first playoff appearance against the eventual-champion LA Lakers in 2010 and the very impressive run for the title that came up short after they where defeated by the eventual-champion Dallas Maverick in west finals last year The Thunders have matured and grown as the one of the league's elite this year and all of the years of frustation, hard work and dedication by the teams core member like Durant,Westbrook, Harden and Ibaka has boiled down to this one chance for greatness and glory, a chance to be the NBA champion.

Third times a charm
Lebron "King" James first NBA finals appearance was way back in 2007 when his former team the Cleveland Cavaliers was sweep by the San Antonio Spurs in the finals. It took years for him to come back in the finals and finally last year when he was traded to Heat and form the trio with Wade and Bosh they got a chance for the title only to be foiled by the Dallas Maverick in Game six. For sure King James is hoping that "third times a charm" for him and hopefully win a ring that will cement his legacy as the King of Basketball.

Hoping to be a great one
I expect this to be a classic bout and in my opinion what add up to the excitement is both teams are equally competitive and its really hard to predict whose going to win. Both teams have legacy that needs to secure and both are in quest for greatness and glory that can only be satisfied by winning the title.
