<p>There are a lot of huge egos in the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/lebron-james-t92259" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>NBA</strong></a>, especially among the top scorers in the league. And, as most fans may already know by now,not many people have a bigger ego than<strong> Kyrie Irving, </strong>especially when it comes to <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>LeBron James.</strong></a></p>
<p>Kyrie has often been a subject of controversies. And whenever LeBron James is in the mix, he feels like he needs to step up for some reason. It was like that when they shared the court forthe <strong>Cleveland Cavaliers </strong>and it’s only gotten worse ever since he left.</p>
<p>Most recently, the<strong> Brooklyn Nets’</strong> All-Star point guard seemingly took a shot at James while lauding <strong>Kevin Durant,</strong> claiming that this would be the first time that he could trust a teammate to knock down a big shot.</p>

<p>Durant and Irving haven’t played a single minute of NBA basketball together, although they did share the court for <strong>Team USA.</strong> Even so, there’s just no way on earth that it wasn’t a shot towards LeBron James.</p>
<h2>LeBron James Says He’s Not Jealous Of Anthony Davis</h2>
<p>The King didn’t hesitate to throw a light jab of his own towards Irving way, claiming that the reason why he’s been able to dominate so well next to <strong>Anthony Davis</strong> is that they’re not jealous of each other.</p>

<p><em>“<strong>We’re not jealous of each other.</strong> We know who we are. We know what we’re about, and want the best — seriously, every single day — for one another,”</em> The King said ahead of Game 2 of the NBA Finals.</p>
<p>For those who lack context, Kyrie Irving won just 35% of his games before LeBron James went back to Cleveland. He was nowhere near even playing a playoff game before LeBron and<strong> Kevin Love</strong> helped him make <strong>3 straight Finals.</strong></p>
<p><span></span> </p>

<p></p>
<p>Irving then forced a move out of the Cavaliers allegedly because he wanted to be ‘the man’ but his leadership style didn’t suit well for the<strong> Boston Celtics</strong> as he threw his teammate under the bus repeatedly.</p>
<p>There’s absolutely no denying Kyrie Irving’s talents and yes, probably Kevin Durant is the best offensive player to ever live but it seems like<strong> throwing shade at the guy who <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/how-many-nba-rings-does-lebron-james-have-20200928-0013.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">made you a winner</a> is way out of line.</strong></p>

LeBron James fires back at Kyrie Irving and reveals secret behind success with Anthony Davis - Bolavip US

<p>The Heat led by as much as 13 early in the first quarter but <strong>Anthony Davis</strong> and the Lakers came back and never took their feet off the gas. <strong>They led by 30 point</strong>s late in the second half and the game was more lopsided than you could guess from the 116-98 score.</p>
<p>Davis shined with 34 points, 9 boards, and 3 blocks while <strong>LeBron James was one assistshy of a triple-double.</strong> The Lakers were all over the court and dominated both ends of the paint en route to astatement win.</p>

Heat looking to bounce back vs Lakers in Game 2 of the NBA Finals

<p>It seems like some fans just live to heckle other <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>NBA</strong></a>team’s players, and<strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/portland-trail-blazers-t102081" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Blazers</a>‘ star Damian Lillard </strong>is a prime example of that. Regardless of what they do, they always have countless trolls breathing on their necks to call them out for any given reason.</p>
<p>Lillard has constantly been under fire in the offseason for not posting footage of his basketball-related training. He’s said over and over that he doesn’t wear his body out with basketball during the offseason <strong>and instead focuses on other aspects of his physical preparation.</strong></p>
<p>However, it seems like some<strong> <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/los-angeles-lakers-t101482" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lakers</a> </strong>fans didn’t get the memo, as once again they started heckling him for working out and not hooping after the end of the season and making fun of him <strong>for <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/video-the-road-to-the-nba-finals-los-angeles-lakers-20200929-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">losing to their team</a> in the first round of the playoffs.</strong></p>

<p><strong>Phil Jackson has an impressive record from any angle you look at it. </strong>As a player, Jackson <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/nba-rings-teams-with-most-championships-20200929-0008.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">won two NBA championships</a> with the New York Knicks. He was on the NBA All-Rookie first team in 1968 and while playing he authored a photo book on the 1970 Knicks championship run.</p>
<p>When he began coaching, he started as an assistant with the New York Nets and coached in Puerto Rico before taking the top job with the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/chicago%C2%A0bulls-t101422" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bulls</a> in 1989. The rest is history, <strong>Jackson is a 4-time NBA All-Star head coach, he was coach of the year in 1996, and is considered one of the top 10 coaches in NBA history.</strong></p>
<p>Jackson coached a total of 20 years and has a regular-season winning percentage of .704, <strong>he has won 1,155 games of 1,640 played. </strong>All these records are equally impressive with the number of championships won. Sit back and enjoy reviewing all eleven championships won by Phil Jackson as a coach.</p>

<p><strong>With Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, and the rest of the Bulls, Jackson led them to six championships.</strong> Over nine seasons, he won two separate three-peats in 1991-1993 and 1996-1998. <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/The-30-best-teams-in-NBA-history-20200701-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Bulls three-peat</a> was the first since the Boston Celtics won eight titles in a row from 1959 to 1966.</p>
<p><strong>With the Bulls, he qualified for the playoffs in every year that he coached, and their championship run ended when Michael Jordan announced his first retirement after the 1992-1993 season.</strong> As it was famously documented in <em>The Last Dance</em>, Jackson and Bulls general manager Jerry Krause’s relationship began to go south, and when he signed a contract extension to coach the team in 1997-1998 it was marked as his final season in charge. When the Bulls won the 98 title, Jackson vowed to never coach again, but he was convinced to take over the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/los-angeles-lakers-t101482" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Los Angeles Lakers</a> in 1999.</p>

Unfortunately for Jackson, his new dynasty had issues in the locker room, Bryant and O’Neal did not get along, but more importantly, Jackson and Bryant did not get along, with Kobe publicly stating that the triangle offense was “boring”.</p>
<p>Jackson placed an ultimatum and requested that Kobe Bryant be traded, something Lakers management said no to immediately. Jackson left the team in 2004 but would return in 2005 and <strong>winning two more NBA titles in 2009 and 2010.</strong> During the title runs Jackson and Bryant put old tensions in the past and worked very well together. At the end of the 2010-2011 season, Jackson announced he would not return to the Lakers and thus ended his highly successful managing career. <strong>No other coach in NBA history has won more championships than Phil Jackson.</strong></p>

<p>There are a couple of similarities between <strong>Tyler Herro and Kobe Bryant.</strong> They were both doubted, both of them <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/NBA-Draft-2020-Everything-you-need-to-know-20200717-0002.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">were drafted</a> with the 13th overall pick, and both came off the bench during his rookie year but rose to the occasion once they had a chance to prove their worth.</p>
<p>It’s likely that Tyler Herro has dreamed about tying or breaking Kobe Bryant’s records in the NBA, let alone the <strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a> Finals.</strong> However, it seems like you have to be careful what you wish for, as it may not turn out the way you wanted.</p>
<p>Herro wasn’t his usual self during <strong>Game 1 of the NBA Finals</strong>. The <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/miami-heat-t100209" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Miami Heat</strong> </a>rookie managed to score double-digits but took him a lot of shots, and was a huge liability in the defensive end vs. the<strong> <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/los-angeles-lakers-t101482" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Los Angeles Lakers.</a></strong></p>

<h2>Tyler Herro Ties Worst Kobe Bryant For Worst Plus/Minus In NBA Finals History</h2>
<p>Sadly for him, Tyler Herro ended his night with 14 points on 6/18 shooting, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 turnovers in 30 minutes. However, the stat that stood out from the rest was <strong>his terrible plus/minus of -35.</strong></p>

<p> Matched Mamba for the worst +/- in finals history, a wild minus-35 in 30 minutes.</p>

<p></p></div>
<p>That’s tied for the worst plus/minus in NBA Finals history and the lowest since Kobe Bryant posted the same number in the 2000 NBA Finals. If there’s something positive to take out of it, <strong>that was also Kobe’s first trip to the Finals and he ended up winning the ring.</strong></p>

<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p>This time, however, Herro is bound to have quite a tough time trying to replicate the Black Mamba’s success, as the Lakers look stronger, more focused, and simply overpowered. Also, <strong>Goran Dragic</strong> will miss the remainder of the series and <strong>Bam Adebayo</strong> is pretty banged-up with an injury.</p>
<p><span></span> </p>

<div id="relatedNews-37">   </div>
<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p>Some growing pains are expected from rookies and there’s no shame in that. Herro has been great for Miami all year long and came through big time in the playoffs. T<strong>his will definitely be an invaluable developing experience for him.</strong></p>

<p>Well, so much for all the people who doubted the <strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/los-angeles-lakers-t101482" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Los Angeles Lakers.</a> Frank Vogel’s</strong> team proved that they’re for real with a huge statement win over the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/miami-heat-t100209" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Miami Heat</strong></a>, dominating them for most of Game 1 of the<a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> </a><strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a> Finals</strong> even when they were at full strength.</p>
<p>The Heat jumped to a big lead early in the first quarter but once the Lakers tied it up a couple of minutes later, it all went south for <strong>Erik Spoelstra’s</strong> side, which also lost a couple of soldiers due to injury.</p>
<p><strong>Anthony Davis</strong> lived upto the expectations and proved again that trading the young players for him was worth it, scoring a game-high 34 points with 9 rebounds, 5 assists, and 3 blocks on 11/21 shooting and a +/- of 23.</p>

<p><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/lebron-james-t92259" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>LeBron James </strong></a>nearly had a triple-double with 25 points, 13 rebounds, 9 dimes, and 1 steal, while even<strong> Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Danny Green, and Alex Caruso</strong> scored in double-figures. Shockingly, not a single Lakers player had a negative +/-.</p>
<p><span></span></p>

<p></p>
<p>The Miami Heat lost <strong>Goran Dragic </strong>– likely for the series – with a torn plantar fascia, while <strong>Jimmy Butler</strong> rolled his ankle badly twice and <strong>Bam Adebayo </strong>hurt the same shoulder that bothered him in the Eastern Conference Finals.</p>
<p><span></span></p>

<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p>That makes this uphill battle almost impossible for the Miami Heat, as they could be without 2 of their top-3 scorers and minute-getters. Needless to say, the internet wasn’t quiet during this purple-and-gold fest <strong>and potential sweep.</strong></p>

<p>If there’s a team that can come back and fight their way to a win, that’s the Miami Heat, especially under Spoelstra’s command. Then again, it’ll be quite tough for them if they’re not at full strength. That’s the kind of thing you never want to see at any stage,<strong> especially in the NBA Finals.</strong></p>

<h2>Scottie Pippen Believes The Heat Have The Edge Over The Lakers</h2>
<p><em>“I think it’s going to be a great series. To me, <strong>Miami has a little bit of the edge.</strong> I think people are overlooking how well they’ve played and their style of play,” </em>Scottie Pippen told <strong>Forbes</strong> ahead of the NBA Finals.</p>

<h2>Scottie Pippen Says LeBron James Still Has To Prove He Can Lead On His Own</h2>
<p>Moreover, the 6-time NBA Champion fired quite a hot take, as he claimed that LeBron James – who’s in his 17th year and <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/how-many-nba-rings-does-lebron-james-have-20200928-0013.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">has won multiple rings</a> already – <strong>still needs to prove that he’s capable of leading on his own:</strong></p>
<p><em>“I give a lot of credit to the way the Lakers have played defensively but I think Miami is ready for the challenge. They have players that are playing with a lot of confidence right now. I don’t take nothing away from the Lakers and LeBron going to his 10th Finals. <strong>He still has to prove he can lead a team himself.</strong> I think Anthony Davis has shown he’s more valuable to them on the offensive end but I think Miami has more offensive weapons they’ll be able to throw at LA,”</em> Pippen concluded.</p>

<p></p>
<p>We’re talking about a guy who’s<a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/lebron-james-has-made-it-to-more-nba-finals-than-27-teams-20200929-0009.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> made more NBA Finals than 90% of the existing franchises </a>and that has set countless milestones and records throughout his career. <strong>The Miami Heat are a strong, hard-nosed team that could end up winning this series,</strong> that goes without saying, but to claim that James still has something to prove at this point, I’m not so sure about that.</p>

Los Angeles Lakers vs Miami Heat Game 1: Predictions, preview, odds, and how to watch 2020 NBA Finals - Bolavip US

Lakers and Heat square off for Game 1 of the NBA Finals

<p>Most of his critics often judge <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/lebron-james-t92259" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>LeBron James </strong></a>notbecause of <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/how-many-nba-rings-does-lebron-james-have-20200928-0013.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">how many rings he has</a> but because of all the <strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a> championships</strong> he’s lost. However, denying his greatness at this point is just pure pettiness.</p>
<p>There’s absolutely no way to deny that LeBron James is one of the greatest, most influential, and most dominant athletes no only in the history of the NBA but in sports as a whole<strong>. That’s just a fact, not an opinion.</strong></p>
<p>As a matter of fact, now that he’s clinched his 10th-ever trip to the NBA Finals, this time with the Los Angeles Lakers, LeBron James now <strong>has more appearances at the stage than 27 of the 30 existing NBA Franchises.</strong></p>

<h2>LeBron James Tops 27 Franchises With 10th NBA Finals Appearance</h2>
<p>As<strong> ESPN </strong>reported, LeBron James only trails the <strong>Los Angeles Lakers (32), Boston Celtics (21), and Golden State Warriors (11)</strong> in terms of appearances at basketball’s ultimate stage, breaking his tie with the <strong>Philadelphia 76ers.</strong></p>

<p>The fact that there have been six NBA franchises that have never made it to the NBA Finals and<strong> 10 teams that have never won an NBA Championship</strong> only makes this milestone even more impressive.</p>

<p>We’re talking about a guy that’s been to the NBA Finals in more than half of his years in the league (17). He also made it to 8 consecutive NBA Finals <strong>and 9 of the past 10 editions</strong>, which is unthinkable by modern standards.</p>

<p>LeBron James has now appeared in<strong> 13.5% of all the NBA Finals</strong> in basketball history, as per <strong>The Ringer’s Rodger Sherman</strong>. That’s just incredible, even if he ends up losing again and retires with a 3-10 record.</p>

The only 3 teams with more NBA Finals than LeBron James - Bolavip US

<p>Winning an<strong> <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a> Championship</strong> is the ultimate task. That’s why we’ve seen <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/The-15-Greatest-NBA-Players-of-All-Time-20200329-0002.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">countless legends</a> and hall of famers like <strong>Karl Malone, Charles Barkley, or Allen Iverson</strong> retire without putting an <strong>NBA ring</strong> on their fingers.</p>
<p>Throughout the course of history, the NBA has featured nothing but the greatest athletes and most talented players to ever set foot on a basketball hardwood, thus making it quite tough to stand out and go the distance <strong>after a full 82-game season.</strong></p>
<p>Then again, there have been some franchises that are more than used to dominating when it matters the most, historically great teams who knowwhat it takes to win an NBA ringall <strong>and that will accept nothing but greatness.</strong></p>

<p>After 73 editions of the NBA Finals, there are even some franchises that have never even made it to that stage,<strong> let alone win a championship</strong>. Here, will talk about those who have dominated the league at will: <strong>The NBA franchises with the most championships.</strong></p>

<h2>Teams With Most NBA Rings</h2>
<h2>Chicago Bulls – 6</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <img loading="lazy" alt="Michael Jordan " data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Michael Jordan " src="https://bolavip.com/__export/1601399270366/sites/bolavip/img/2020/09/29/michael_jordan_bulls_finals_crop1601399269852.jpg_22069893.jpg" width="740" height="412"><figcaption>   The Bulls never needed to play a Game 7 in the Finals. (Getty)  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>NBA Titles:</strong>1991, 1992, 1993, 1996, 1997, 1998<br> <strong>Record In NBA Finals Series:</strong> 6-0</p>
<p>Well, it’s pretty safe to state that the <strong>Chicago Bulls </strong>owe <strong>Michael Jordan</strong> everything. As they often say, the United Center is ‘The House Jordan Built’ as he led them to the only 6 NBA Championships in franchise history.</p>
<p>Next to<strong> Phil Jackson and Scottie Pippen,</strong> Jordan made the Bulls the biggest dynasty in the world and helped take the league to new horizons. Sadly, they haven’t been able to live up to that standard since MJ retired for the second time.</p>
<p><span></span></p>

<div id="relatedNews-28">   </div>
<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p><strong>The Bulls beat the Lakers, Blazers, Suns, Sonics, and Jazz</strong> (twice) en route to their six rings. Hopefully, their young core will be able to make another run at a Larry O’Brien trophy to keep on climbing the ladder here.</p>
<h2>Golden State Warriors – 6</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <img loading="lazy" alt="Golden State Warriors Finals" data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Golden State Warriors Finals" src="https://bolavip.com/__export/1601399306266/sites/bolavip/img/2020/09/29/stephen_curry_warriors_finals_crop1601399305824.jpg_22069893.jpg" width="740" height="412"><figcaption>   The Warriors won back-to-back rings in 2017 and 2018.

<p><strong>NBA Titles:</strong>1947, 1956, 1975, 2015, 2017, 2018<br> <strong>Record In NBA Finals Series: </strong>6-5</p>
<p>Contrary to what most young or new NBA fans may think, the <strong>Golden State Warriors </strong>were actually a bottom-of-the-pack franchise before<strong> Stephen Curry and Steve Kerr</strong> came along. Other than the Wilt Chamberlain era and a couple of rings, they struggled to even make the playoffs.</p>
<p>Then,<strong> the <em>Splash Brothers </em>era </strong>came around and the Warriors became the biggest powerhouse in modern basketball history, even taking down the Chicago Bulls’ record<strong> for most wins in the regular season (73).</strong></p>
<p><span></span></p>

<div id="relatedNews-3">   </div>
<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p>Curry and the Warriors made it to 5 straight trips to the NBA Finals, winning 3 of them. They didn’t make the playoffs this season due to multiple injuries and<strong> Kevin Durant’s departure </strong>but it’s only a matter of time before they’re back where they belong.</p>
<h2>Los Angeles Lakers – 17</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <img loading="lazy" alt="Kobe Bryant Finals" data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Kobe Bryant Finals" src="https://bolavip.com/__export/1601399360714/sites/bolavip/img/2020/09/29/kobe_bryant_lakers_finals_crop1601399360187.jpg_22069893.jpg" width="740" height="412"><figcaption>   Kobe Bryant led the Lakers to 5 rings. (Getty)  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>NBA Titles:</strong>1949, 1950, 1952, 1953, 1954, 1972, 1980, 1982, 1985, 1987, 1988, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2009, 2010, 2020<br> <strong>Record In NBA Finals Series: </strong>17-15</p>
<p>The <strong>Los Angeles Lakers</strong> are the winningest NBA team of modern basketball. They had to endure very tough times earlier in their history in Minnesota before moving to Los Angeles on an era completely dominated by the Celtics but were able to turn the table around in Hollywood.</p>
<p><strong>4 of the top 5 all-time leading scorers in NBA history </strong>have played for the Los Angeles Lakers. They’ve made a habit of competing at the highest level and having nothing but the top-notch talents around the league. </p>

<p>The Lakers have the most appearances in the NBA Finals (32) and now,<strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/lebron-james-t92259" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> LeBron James</a> and Anthony Davis</strong>helped them tie the Boston Celtcis at the top of the list with their 17th NBA Championship.</p>

<h2>Boston Celtics – 17</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">  <img loading="lazy" alt="Boston Celtics Finals" data-height="412" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:412" hspace="5" vspace="5" title="Boston Celtics Finals" src="https://bolavip.com/__export/1601399425048/sites/bolavip/img/2020/09/29/boston_celtics_finals_crop1601399424443.jpg_22069893.jpg" width="740" height="412"><figcaption>   The Celtics beat the Lakers in the 2008 NBA Finals. (Getty)  </figcaption></figure>
<p></p></div>
<p><strong>NBA Titles:</strong>1957, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966, 1968, 1969, 1974, 1976, 1981, 1984, 1986, 2008<br> <strong>Record In NBA Finals Series: </strong>17-4</p>
<p>The <strong>Boston Celtics</strong> take a lot of pride in being the winningest team in NBA Finals history and only having 4 series losses throughout their history. However, most basketball connoisseurs actually take most of their accolades with a grain of salt.</p>
<p>Boston won 11 rings in 13 years during<strong> Bill Russell’s</strong> tenure in the league. What they don’t say is that back then, the NBA consisted of just 8 teams, and the Celtics were vastly overpowered in comparison to the rest of the league. But hey, you have to play the hand you’re given and the Celtics got the job done.</p>
<p><span></span></p>
<div class="ck-related-news"> <span data-src="/usa/contenidos/2020/08/04/noticia_0002.html" data-type="news"></span>  <p></p>
<div id="relatedNews-2">   </div>
<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p>The Celtics haven’t been as competitive since the Larry Bird era and have only made it to the Finals 3 times in the past 34 years, winning just one Championship. Still, they’ve put together arguably the best young core in the league <strong>and will be competing for their 18th ring in no time.</strong></p>

<p><strong>The <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/los-angeles-lakers-t101482" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Los Angeles Lakers</a> had a dominant 2019-2020 season, finishing first in the Western Conference winning a total of 52 games in the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a>’s shorten season.</strong> Behind <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/how-many-nba-rings-does-lebron-james-have-20200928-0013.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LeBron James</a>, Anthony Davis, Dwight Howard, and JaVale McGee the Lakers had a relatively easy road to the finals winning all of their playoff series in 5 games.</p>
<p><strong>This was the first playoff birth for the Lakers since the 2012- 2013 season</strong>, a playoff birth that was clinched on March 6, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the NBA season was suspended on March 11th a few days later. The Lakers would later determine their playoff seeding when the season resumed in the NBA Bubble in the Sports Complex at the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida.</p>
<p>The Lakers claimed their first Pacific Division title since 2012 and became the top seed in the Western Conference for the first time since 2009-10. <strong>Anthony Davis is the team leader in points per game and rebounds with 26 and 9, followed by Lebron James with 25 and 7.</strong></p>

The road to the NBA Finals: Los Angeles Lakers - Bolavip US

<p>The <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/miami-heat-t100209" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Miami Heat</strong></a> just did the unthinkable. They beat the odds and became the first 5th seed to ever reach the<a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> </a><strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NBA</a> Finals</strong>, once again under <strong>Erik Spoelstra’s</strong> tutelage. Moreover, they did it with huge wins and playing beautiful team basketball, arguably the best in the league.</p>
<p>However, their reward could be considered a punishment, as they’ll have to deal with<strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/lebron-james-t92259" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> LeBron James</a>, Anthony Davis,</strong> and the<a href="https://us.bolavip.com/los-angeles-lakers-t101482" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> </a><strong><a href="https://us.bolavip.com/los-angeles-lakers-t101482" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Los Angeles Lakers</a> </strong>on the ultimate best-of-seven series at basketball’s ultimate stage.</p>
<p>Then again, Heat have overcome adversities all year long and have quite a deep, well-focused team that’s clearly not afraid of stepping up vs. anybody on earth, <strong>so we’re definitely going to have a fun series.</strong></p>

<h2>Erik Spoelstra Doesn’t Want To Hear About LeBron James Right Now</h2>
<p>That’s why coach Erik Spoelstra just doesn’t want to hear about LeBron James or the Lakers right now. When asked about the prospect of facing his former player, he shut that narrative down right away <strong>and urged the media to just let him and his players enjoy this huge achievement:</strong></p>

<p><em>“That’s a great storyline. <strong>Can you let us enjoy this for right now.</strong> This is hard to do. It’s hard to get to this point. I want our guys to recognize that and enjoy it,” </em>Spoelstra said after the celebration, according to Heat Nation.</p>
<p>For those who lack context, Erik Spoelstra was LeBron James’ coach <strong>during the best stretch of his career. </strong>Coach Spo moved him to the power forward spot and James – who was on his physical prime – played flawless basketball en route to 4 rings and 2 Finals.</p>
<p><span></span></p>

<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p>Also, there is reportedly some unfinished business between James, Spoelstra, and <strong>Pat Riley. </strong>James wasn’t fond of Coach Spo and wanted him fired, and Pat told him that it wasn’t his choice to make, which led to The King going back to Cleveland.</p>

<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p>Now, Spoelstra – and likely Riley – will have to come up with a plan to stop the man they helped become the best player in the world and if anyone can stop him that’s definitely<strong> two of the greatest basketball masterminds of all time.</strong></p>

Erik Spoelstra gives a blunt response on facing LeBron James in the Finals

Erik Spoelstra gives a blunt response on facing LeBron James in the Finals - Bolavip US

<p>There’s no doubt that<strong> <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/lebron-james-t92259" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LeBron James</a></strong> is one of the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/The-15-Greatest-NBA-Players-of-All-Time-20200329-0002.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>greatest players of all time</strong></a>. Ever since he made it to the <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba-t19117" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>NBA</strong> </a>as the first-overall pick of the 2003 NBA Draft, there were a lot of expectations and hopes over his shoulders, and needless to say, <strong>he’s lived up to them and even surpassed them.</strong></p>
<p>LeBron James is a born-winner. He’s a once-in-a-lifetime kind of talent and a gifted athlete, and the fact that he’s still going strong<strong> 17 years later </strong>is almost unprecedented and a testament to his relentless work ethic.</p>
<p>However, even The King has had its fair share of struggles in the most competitive basketball league in the world. Regardless of how dominant he’s been, he’s had a tough time winning NBA championships.<strong> Here, we’ll walk you through every single one of his 4 rings.</strong></p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-57">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<h2>First Trip To The NBA Finals</h2>
<p>It didn’t take long before LeBron James led the <strong>Cleveland Cavaliers </strong>to basketball’s ultimate stage. During his 4th season in the league and at the ripe age of 22, he led a team with no other All-Star and against all odds.</p>
<p>However, the almighty <strong>San Antonio Spurs </strong>were just too overpowered for a young LeBron and his subpar supporting cast.<strong> Tim Duncan, Manu Ginóbili. and Tony Parker</strong> were just too much to handle and swept him that year.</p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-39">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<p>LeBron stood put through thick and thin with the Cleveland Cavaliers, but the management’s inability to surround him with talented players eventually forced him out of the franchise <strong>to look for his first ring elsewhere.</strong></p>
<h2>The Heatles Era: LeBron’s First Two Rings</h2>
<p>LeBron James became the most hated guy on the planet when he said that he was ‘taking his talents to South Beach’ to join <strong>Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, and the Miami Heat </strong>in the 2010 offseason.</p>
<p>There, he’d finally play with elite stars and, as expected, the Miami Heat was an unstoppable juggernaut that dominated the Eastern Conference even ahead of the <strong>Boston Celtics</strong>, who were the strongest team at the time.</p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-55">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<p>LeBron led the Heat to the Finals in 2011 and were heavily favored vs.<strong> Dirk Nowitzki </strong>and the <strong>Dallas Mavericks.</strong> However, The Great Teuton overcame adversities and beat the Heat’s <a href="https://us.bolavip.com/nba/nba-big-three-every-team-best-trio-since-2000-20200804-0002.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Big 3</strong></a> in 6 games.</p>
<p>The King came back stronger than ever and played with a chip on his shoulder next season, leading the team back to the Finals, this time to play <strong>Russell Westbrook, Kevin Durant, Serge Ibaka, and James Harden </strong>after a shortened season.</p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-8">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<p>The Miami Heat beat the<strong> Oklahoma City Thunder</strong> in five games with LeBron James winning his first-ever NBA Championship and Finals MVP award after three tries and years of struggles.</p>
<p><strong>Erik Spoelstra’s</strong> team made a habit of going the distance, as they went back to the NBA Finals to face the Spurs, a team that put them against the ropes until<strong> Ray Allen</strong> hit a miracle three-pointer in Game 6 to force Game 7 and beat them at home to win back-to-back rings.</p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-98">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<p>James promised to win many more rings at South Beach but the Spurs got back at him in the very next season, with <strong>Kawhi Leonard </strong>blossoming as a lockdown defender to win a Finals MVP in 5 games. That’ll be the last time we’d ever see James in Heat threads.</p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-78">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<h2>Homecoming: LeBron Makes History At Cleveland</h2>
<p>The Cleveland Cavaliers fell to the bottom of the Eastern Conference without LeBron James so needless to say, they buried the hatched and welcomed back the King with open arms.<strong> This time, they vowed to give him what he needed to win.</strong></p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-12">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<p>The Cavs traded multiple assets to pair LeBron and<strong> Kyrie Irving with Kevin Love</strong> and it surely paid off, as they made it to the Finals on his very first year back home, even though they couldn’t beat the<strong> Golden State Warriors</strong> after suffering major injuries in the playoffs.</p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-36">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<p>Cleveland went back to that stage next season and at full strength. The Warriors put them against the wall and were up 3-1 in that series. Then, the Cavs’ Big 3 became the first team in NBA history to ever come back from such a deficit in the Finals, <strong>with LeBron winning his third ring.</strong></p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-63">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<p>The next two years were quite tough for the Cavaliers on and off the court. Locker room issues, trades, and countless moves hurt the team’s chemistry, and even though they made it to the Finals the two following seasons, <strong>the Warriors beat them twice and put an end to James’ second stint in Ohio.</strong></p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-22">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<h2>Cementing His Legacy: LeBron Leads The Lakers Back To The Top</h2>
<p>The <strong>Los Angeles Lakers </strong>signed LeBron James, who was coming off 8 straight trips to the NBA Finals, to try and go back to the biggest stage for the first time since 2010. However, the King suffered the first major injury of his career – in his 16th season – and they couldn’t even make the playoffs.</p>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-34">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<p>Los Angeles traded multiple assets and Draft picks fo<strong>r</strong><strong> Anthony Davis </strong>and the Lakers became the biggest contender in the league right away. Needless to say, LeBron and Davis made an instant click and led the team back to the Finals.</p>
<p><span></span></p>

<div id="relatedNews-31">     </div>
<p></p></div>
<p></p>
<p>LeBron James now made his 10th appearance in the NBA Finals in 17 years, and his 9th in the past decade. That’s just unthinkable in the modern era. And while his haters give him a hard time for his 4-6 record at that stage, <strong>he still led the Lakers to their 17th title by beating the Miami Heat and even won the Finals MVP award, again.</strong><span></span></p>
