2. The Big Three’s First Victory (Game 5, 2012)
After fighting hard to form a super team of James, Wade and Chris Bosh, president Pat Riley’s perseverance paid off: the Big Three won their first collective championship in 2012. With a 3-1 lead over the Oklahoma City Thunder, Miami closed out the series in Game 5. However, not only was it the first title won by the new trio, but it was James’ first ever championship. And, to make things that much more special, James took home the award of Finals MVP.
