The Heat enter the offseason comfortable with their production at the point guard position.

Mario Chalmers and Norris Cole take the vast majority of minutes at the position.

"We feel good with our point guard position, because we don't need a real prototypical point guard that needs the ball all the time," said Riley.

The Cavaliers picked Dion Waiters with the fourth overall selection and also ended up with Tyler Zeller later in the first round.

“We knew we needed to add scoring and more playmaking and we were able to do that with Dion,” said Chris Grant. “He’s an aggressive, athletic, explosive player that is a great fit for our team. We also knew we needed another big man that can shoot, rebound, defend and get up and down the court with our style of play. We were able to do that with Tyler and we feel he is also a great fit for our team.”

John Wall is encouraged with the recent acquisitions made by the Wizards in adding Nene and Bradley Beal to the roster.

“After we got Nene last year we were a different team," said Wall. "We finished the season strong and I think he (Bradley Beal) can come in and help us continue to get better. He’s a good shooter so he will help spread the floor us and he can defend on the end. We need to move forward so we can get better as a team and look towards the playoffs.”

LeBron James often played power forward during Miami's title run with Chris Bosh moving to center.

While Bosh said he would be comfortable playing center fulltime, James said he isn't ready to commit to the position on a permanent basis.

"I don't see a 32-, 33-year old LeBron playing power forward," said James.

Phil Jackson believes Jim Buss' appreciation of Andrew Bynum changed the rhythm of the Lakers in their first season without their former coach.

The Lakers hired Mike Brown in the offseason and part of that was to increase the role given to Bynum, but Pau Gasol's play was sacrificed in the process.

"You know, Jim is a guy that, you know, saw Andrew as a kid-- and thought Bynum was gonna be a great pick for our team," said Jackson. "But in the process, I think you know, he's wanted Andrew to have a bigger and bigger role. And I think he's hired his coach to have Andrew have a bigger and bigger role. And that kinda disjointed the symmetry of what the Lakers were really about this last year. You know, Andrew is All-Star center. He was-- did a wonderful job. But, you know, it-- what happened was, it took Pau out of his game. And it took the team away from some of their game. So they changed the style dramatically."

Pat Riley has taken an increasingly active role in communicating with Erik Spoelstra during The Finals.

“It’s almost as if he’s a member on my staff," said Spoelstra. "If I’m not calling him, if I’m not bumping into him at the office, I’m texting him. Our dialogue has been very good. It’s most relevant with a team like this. He’s walked in my shoes before.”

LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh praised Erik Spoelstra on Saturday for being more receptive to suggestions than in the past.

“Something was made of that blowup in Indiana, but that shows how our relationship has grown,” Wade said. “We’ve been together for a long time. You don’t have those kinds of moments if you haven’t been together. It’s just like family members, just like a brother.

“We have moments, but we love each other, and we move on from it. We grow from it. I’ve enjoyed seeing him grow. The biggest growth in him this season has been his openness to ask other guys what they think. … That’s key for players to feel they have that openness with their coach, that he’s going to listen to what they have to say, and sometimes use it, sometimes not.”

Bosh said Spoelstra has “become a better listener, taking our opinions a lot more … to make better adjustments.”

Chris Bosh wants the Heat to forgo jump shots in favor of aggressive drives to the basket in Game 2.

“We have to do a better job of executing our offense,” Bosh said. “Sometimes we have to attack the rim, because if you're not making shots and you're shooting jumper after jumper, (Oklahoma City) is getting out in the open court, and that's what they do.”

Dwyane Wade missed 12-of-19 shots in Miami’s Game 1 loss.

“We'll get him opportunities to attack,” Erik Spoelstra said of Wade. “He had a couple of good opportunities to get into the paint there in the fourth, a couple of them he wasn't able to convert. But he was aggressive in that quarter, and so we'll try to get him in places where he can continue to be aggressive.”

David Stern equated flopping with trickery and said the competition committee will discuss ways to eliminate its prevalence. 

"Flopping almost doesn't do it justice," Stern said Tuesday just prior to the start of the NBA Finals. "Trickery. Deceit designed to cause the game to be decided other than on its merits. We'll be looking at that.

"We'll be looking at a number of things that make it easier for us to say to our fans what we all know to be true: Our referees want to get everything right."

The committee will also consider expanding instant replay.

Kevin Durant shoots 38 percent from the three-point line and is particularly accurate at the top of the key.

Kirk Goldsberry, a professor of geography at Michigan State, uses shot chart data to measure shot frequency and shot potency.

Goldsberry said some NBA teams are well-versed in such analytics, while others, like the Lakers, are "notoriously behind the curve." Goldsberry pointed to Game 4 of the Western Conference semifinals, when Durant hit a game-winner in front of Metta World Peace for a 3-1 series lead.

"Everybody knows that Kevin Durant is a great three-point shooter, but few know he's the best in the NBA from that exact spot," Goldsberry says. "A lot of teams don't know that, but some teams certainly do."
