Lakers Nation Week in Review: Jun. 15- Jun. 22

tumblr_lwij92di971qm9rypo1_1280The NBA offseason has officially begun after the Miami Heat beat the San Antonio Spurs in Game 7 of the Finals Thursday night. The Heat have successfully defended their title and will be looking to become the first team to three-peat since the Lakers did it between 2000-2002.
