“This fall, I’m going to take my talents to South Beach, and join the Miami Heat.”
Ever since LeBron James said those words, expectations for him every year have been “NBA championship or bust.”

LeBron James has dominated the Eastern Conference the last six years. He’s had his fair share of struggles getting there though.
In 2012, the Boston Celtics had the Miami Heat on the ropes with a 3-2 series lead.
