Reading Time: 4 minutesThe Miami Heat surprised and impressed many last season due to their historic postseason run. The Heat ended their game-changing season with a 4-2 series loss to LeBron and the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA Finals.

Why Kevin Durant Deserved his Two Rings

Reading Time: 3 minutesKevin Durant… you can call him a traitor if you feel that way, you can hate him, but that doesn’t take away from him being an all-time great and one of the purest skill sets in NBA history. Durant has infamously been known for “chasing rings” after signing with the 2016 Golden State Warriors, who won a record 73 games. Durant’s Thunder blew a 3-1 lead to the Warriors in the 2016 Western Conference Finals, which has given him his “traitor” monicker. However, Durant deserved every part of those rings and had one of the most...
