The right choice would have been Miami.

Nah. He made the right choice. He will get a ring next year, and have a chance to get a 2nd ring the last year of his contract. Miami's window is pretty much closed. I dont think they will repeat. Fin picked the right team. :D

Finley was awesome for us this past year. I can only imagine what he will be like the upcoming season when he is more adjusted to the system we have. He learned very quickly when he got here, and wanted to stay out of the way initially, but as the season grew on, he looked more and more comfortable every game. One of the best pick-ups by the Spurs ever!!! :tu
