alonzo mourning and gary payton in particular have had sensational careers up to this point. they were missing that ring. now they have it, and when they retire, they will be a champion. no one can ever take that away from them. mourning's post game press conference was moving. inspirational words from a man that has been through so much. antoine walker, who was booed out of boston, has a ring now. all of these guys that were doubted have proven the critics wrong. it is a great day to be a miami heat fan. shaq has brought the championship to miami. dwyane wade has become one of the best nba players in only his 3rd year. lebron? carmelo? that draft class was sensational, but the difference between wade and those two, is wade has led a team to a ring. this is only the beginning.

15 strong. miami heat: 2006 nba champions.
