Sweet seeing Iggy back :) Very classy, even for Andre. (I didn't know you could spell S-H-I-T in a classy fashion.) I was surprised he name checked Poole and seemed friendly with him.

I think that was Chriss's best overall game. Miami plays fairly complicated ball and for the first time I can remember, Chriss seemed to know where he was and what he was supposed to be doing most of the time. His individual plays were nice but it was his overall team ball that stood out this evening.

Wiggins, however, well, I guess we have to get used to it. Wiggin's stats looked okay at the end of the game but I don't remember him having much impact on the game at all and I definitely saw him out of position and confused by Miami at times. He wasn't terrible and he did get a few free throws and a few assists but I suspect tonight's Wiggins is this year's Wiggins. He's no Jimmy Butler. (It was interesting to see Wiggins and Butler chatting on the floor.)

You gotta see this Andre postgame.

3 fave GSW moments:

- first champ,

- 2nd champ watching KD dominate,

- but fave was Steph’s unanimous.

“He wasn’t respected, but when they came around, they said S-H-I-T”

Miami's bench is killing us! Their starters almost all have a negative plus-minus
