Spurs Get Revenge, Rout Heat In Game 5 For Fifth NBA Championship
The Heat kicked off Game 5 on a 22-6 run, and LeBron James contributed 17 of Miami's first 27 points.

Kawhi Leonard's Putback Punctuates A Dominant First Half For The Spurs
The Spurs don't have an unreal shooting percentage tonight like they did in Game 3, but they still killed the Heat in the first half, 55-36. Kawhi Leonard's putback on Patty Mills's three attempt gave San Antonio a 22-point lead. So many sad, booing Heat fans....

The Spurs Made The Mistake Of Thinking LeBron Had Something To Prove
LeBron James is, if nothing else, hyperaware of expectations. Some players use that for individual motivation, others fail under the pressure, but James, on occasion, twists it into a game plan. You saw that last night down the stretch, as the Spurs appeared convinced James would seek personal redem...
