Posted Jun 18, 2013
Tuesday night in Miami, Danny Green Jr. gets his first of two chances to win a title to match the one he seized at North Carolina, and to become one of the more improbable championship-round MVPs in all of sports. A former sparring partner of LeBron's in Cleveland, where he averaged two points per game before he was cut, Green has a chance to help knock out the heavyweight champ in Game 6. (ESPN.com)
