The Miami Heat are now the 2012 World Champions. With LeBron James leading the way, the heat grabbed their 2nd Larry O'Brien Trophy. James also got his finals MVP award with a tripple double performance (26 points, 11 rebounds and 13 assists). Dwyane Wade finished with 20 points while Chris Bosh has 24. The Miami Heat role players also did an outstanding job. Mario Chalmers has a couple of 3's and Shane Battier has 4 field goals and 3 of these are from behind the arc. But the most suprising performance was from the bench. Mike Miller made an amazing 7 three point shots that helps the Heat strengthen their lead. The final score is 106-121.  

The NBA said that the Philippines top the social world (next to United States and China) in following the NBA on Facebook and Twitter. One of the reason is because of Miami Heat's head coach, Erik Spoelstra. Spoelstra has blood line from the Philippines (his mother is a Filipina).

''They root for us,'' Spoelstra said. ''When we're over there during the summer, they are. It's great to see. I had my family over here last night from the Philippines. The one thing about the Philippines is they are rabid basketball fanatics, and it's been that way for a while. They've been following us now for the last couple years, as well.''

Rodolfo Vera Quizon, Sr., popularly known as Dolphy the “Philippine King of Comedy” who will turn 85 on July 25.  He was again admitted to Makati Medical Center last Saturday, June 9.

Epi Quizon said that “My dad was rushed in the hospital due to pneumonia. This made him weak because of his chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). His vitals sign is stable, responding to treatment and still under close observation. On behalf of our family, Thank you for your love and prayers."

Filipino fight icon Manny Pacquiao has sorted out tension in his camp and will have strength coach Alex Ariza in his corner with trainer Freddie Roach when he fights Timothy Bradley in Las Vegas on Saturday and live airing on Sunday 9am Manila time.

However, tension between Roach and Ariza had arisen and been aired publicly on the HBO. Pacquiao said last week that he expected the situation to be resolved, and Roach said that he asked the fighter who he wanted in his corner.

Pacquiao's renewed spirituality, a 33-year-old fighter won world titles in eight divisions and built a record of 54-3 with two drawn and 38 knockouts, is favored against Bradley, the WBO light welterweight champ.

Against the unbeaten Bradley, a 28-year-old  who fight professionally for eight years now, and hasn’t lost, though he only has 12 knockouts in his 28 fights.

This is a big fight for Pacquiao and Bradley! We should not miss this incredible fight which will definitely go down in history of professional boxing.
