El Heat are another step closer to a championship, which means that this weekend is for celebrating -- if you've managed to pull yourself out of that panic attack you were having during Wednesday night's deciding game. Our boys didn't get white hot until the very end, squeaking out a win over Brooklyn. And that was exciting, sure, but it also left the entire city of Miami with a minor stress disorder.
Luckily, it's the weekend, which means it's time to treat those symptoms with booze, music, art, and food. You want to be on top of your game when LeBron & co. return to the court, don't you?
