LeBron and his team-mates party after Miami Heat beat Spurs to win second consecutive NBA title

LeBron James proved why he is the game’s greatest player with a clutch jump-shot to lead the Miami Heat to their second consecutive NBA championship with victory over the San Antonio Spurs in Game seven of the Finals.

After the epic contest of Game six, where Miami came back from seemingly certain defeat to force overtime and snatch victory to keep their championship dream alive, they became the first team in this series to win consecutive games to claim the title on their home court.

James won the Finals’ Most Valuable Player award and hit the shot that finally landed the knock-out punch to the Spurs. His 17-foot jump-shot with 27 seconds left gave the Heat a four-point lead that was to prove decisive.
