If anyone had any doubts the Miami Heat could win the NBA title, then yesterday’s performance in the house of the Lakers will probably have helped to brush away the scepticism (96-80). Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade did their job finely but they benefited from a little help from their friend Lebron James, who might have wanted to make a statement with a huge triple double of 27 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists. “Part of our problem is we’re cocky – admitted Lamar Odom – You win two championships in a row and success can do that to people in basketball, just as in life”.
