    Kawhi Leonard could have been devastated by losing last season's NBA Finals.

    Instead, he vowed to get better.

    Just think -- the San Antonio Spurs' youngest star is only getting started. He's a champion now, with the Spurs beating the Miami Heat 104-87 on Sunday night in Game 5 of the NBA Finals, finishing off a 4-1 triumph. And after watching the Heat celebrate last season, Leonard was the pick as MVP of the series, accepting his award from 11-time champion Bill Russell.

    "Everybody is just living in the moment right now," Leonard said. "Really don't know what's going on."

    He'll figure it out quick. After all, the Spurs know titles -- this one being their fifth since 1999.
