We weren't supposed to be here at all. LeBron's legacy is on the line.
With age getting the best of everyone, are we under more or the Heat. Their future as a team with their BIG 3.

The guys i worry about are Green, Leonard because the are so young. but I still say LeFraud is a choker. Lets see if he spits the bit tonight.
The Heat without a doubt!
The Heat no doubt. They were claimed champions at the beginning of the year (especially after everyone saw the disaster that was dwight howard to the lakers)
Spurs by far because they just had the last game stolen from them.
The Heat were demoralized being down 2-3, and had that game lost. Now that they won it, and get to start 0-0 and tied 3-3 at home. . .they have their second wind while the wind is out of the Spurs' sails.
The Heat are playing with house money now. The Spurs have to go re-win the championship they just lost the day before yesterday.
Not even close. Miami still has all the pressure. That's the bright spot here.
The Spurs have added pressure on themselves because they know what's at stake here (last chance for the big 3 together) but as far as the media and outside world, Miami has all the pressure on their back, especially Lebron.
Heat...Spurs being here for game 7 is gravy
I hate to be the downer who points out that the Heat have been in the Finals 3 straight years, so their championship experience is actually more fresh and possibly greater than ours now.
Their team is filled with vets with experience. Ours only has 3 guys with real experience and one of them is mentally out of it. The rest are young guys with barely any experience, and Boris Diaw who shies away from shots but will at least step up on D' for us.
More pressure is on us. The Heat probably think they deserve to be where they are since it's the 3rd year in a row and the media always hypes them. They aren't going to be that scared unless the Spurs go on a huge run.
The worst case scenario for the Spurs is that they lose Game 7 on the road after playing an exceptional Finals that few thought they would ever reach. So many out there just expect them to spit the bit after the end of Game 6 and a Spurs win tonight would be among the biggest upsets in the history of the Finals. Having played this team as well as they have, Tim Duncan and Tony Parker have absolutely cemented their NBA legacies as truly great players -- and, in Duncan's case, a truly transcendant player (a 30-17 game at age 37 on this stage is absolutely insane).
Miami was supposed to be here and still has to win to build any sort legacy for itself. They have plenty of edges in Game 7, but I think the pressure of this game lies entirely on their shoulders.
Pressure from who? Media? Maybe Heat.
Themselves? Well the Spurs were 23 seconds away from a le; it's a terrible thing to slip away. Hope they get it done tonight and game 6 is a footnote in Finals history.
I would have said the Heat for sure any time in the series before the Spurs got 28.2 seconds from a le. I think that collapse evens things out.
