The Miami Heat have reached the NBA Finals for the second year in a row. The Heat beat the Boston Celtics in five games in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Erik Spoelstra's team won with a lot of character and a strong mentality. The team has repeatedly reached the playoffs with their backs against the wall, but has proven that heart and willpower often trump basketball. The NBA Finals will be held in New York City on June 12 and 13, with the winner going on to the NBA Championship.
