Kemenangan ini sekaligus merupakan balas dendam bagi Spurs, karena pada rangkaian laga Final NBA tahun lalu dikalahkan Heat dengan kedudukan 4-3. Ini juga sekaligus membatalkan target Heat untuk meraih juara ketiga kalinya secara beruntun.
Dalam pertandingan ini, Kahwi Leonard menjadi penyumbang skor terbesar bagi Spurs dengan 22 poin, disusul Manu Ginobili dengan 19 poin. Di kubu Heat, sementara itu, LeBron James masih menjadi kontributor terbesar dengan 31 poin, meski kali ini nyatanya tak mampu mengangkat timnya.
Spurs sempat ketinggalan di kuarter pertama laga ini, dengan selisih angka cukup tinggi yaitu 6-22. Namun mereka mampu bangkit dan meraih angka maksimal di kuarter kedua dan ketiga yang menentukan, dengan total keunggulan 55-29 dari kedua sesi.
Ini merupakan gelar juara kelima kalinya bagi Spurs, dengan gelar terakhir mereka raih pada tahun 2007 lalu. Sebagai tambahan kebahagiaan di kubu Spurs, Kahwi Leonard pun dianugerahi gelar Pemain Terbaik Final NBA (MVP of NBA Finals) tahun ini yang berhak atas trofi MVP Bill Russell.
