With a 104-87 win in Game 5 of the finals, the Spurs celebrated their fifth championship.
San Antonio won four of five games, including the last three, with the bonus of snuffing Miami’s quest for a third straight title.
Kawhi Leonard finished with 22 points and 10 rebounds. Ginobili added 19 points, and Duncan, in his 17th season with the team, added 14 points and 8 rebounds.
The victory was even sweeter for the Spurs given their not-so-distant loss via the Heat. In last year’s finals, the Spurs had a 3-2 series lead before it all slipped away: a late lead in Game 6, followed by a loss in Game 7.
Dang … Keep your head Bron. If only your teammates showed up you could have had a win.
