On the road to their first NBA Championship, the HEAT faced off against the team that had closed the door on them in the Easter Conference Finals just a year before. The Detroit Pistons, with the top regular season record in the NBA, were also hungry to get back to the NBA Finals for a chance at their second title in three years.
Dwyane Wade went supernova in the series as a scorer but shifted into ‘facilitator mode’ for SHAQ and Jayson Williams in Game 6 with a game-high 10 assists to go with 14 points and four rebounds.
Meanwhile, SHAQ and Williams combined for 49 points on 22-26 shooting – a blistering 84 FG% – to clinch the series and stamp their tickets for the franchise’s first ever Finals berth.

Lebron happened! Right when Kobe stop being the face of the league last championship an Lebron became the face, and leaving ever other year because too hard and not playing defense started! And ruined the league in about 8years. Since Covid the league has been completely horrible to watch
