Well, the Heat certainly made that look easy. Last night, they finished their dismantling of the Celtics 97-87 to finish off Boston 4-1 in their best-of-7 series. But the most interesting sound bytes to come out of the post-game press conferences had little to do with what transpired on the court. Rather, they came from LeBron James who finally—fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinally!—stood up and apologized for mishandling his free agency signing with the Heat last July during ESPN's The Decision.

"I knew I had to go through Boston at some point," he told reporters. "I went through a lot signing to be here and the way it panned out. I apologize for the way it happened, but I knew that this opportunity was once in a lifetime." Now, was that really so hard!? [via CBS Sports]
