Someone sent me the above image of LMFAO “performing” during timeouts at Game 5 of the NBA Finals last night, and all I could think was: “This is Miami in a nutshell.” It’s overindulgence at its finest. I mean, they were celebrating during the game. But it doesn’t matter now, because the Miami Heat are the NBA Champions and LeBron James and Chris Bosh finally have their vindication (of sorts).
I bring no ill will today, as the Heat earned this title, and I predicted it would happen before the season, so I’ll just sit here and be glad that for once in my insignificant life, I was right about something. But I can’t help but share the video showing how James, Bosh, and Dwyane Wade celebrated their title – presumably before they rolled around on mountains of cash with naked models.
I present to you: LeBron James, Chris Bosh, and Dwyane Wade rapping with LMFAO, or the most Miami Heat thing you’ll ever see.
IMPORTANT UPDATE: This GIF is also very Miami Heat.
(A full gallery of their evening at LIV can be viewed here.)
Also a little TIL (Today I Learned, for the non-Reddit types): The members of LMFAO are the newphew and grandson of legendary record producer Berry Gordy. So now I can finally stop asking, “How the f*ck did this happen?” Hooray nepotism!
