The Miami Heat's been greated by hundreds of thousands of basketball fans lining the streets to cheer the NBA champions on in a downtown victory parade.

The Heat players rode atop double-decker buses before a victory rally inside the American Airlines Arena where the coaches and players danced, took turns holding the trophy and made speeches.

Miami won their second title in franchise history by beating the Oklahoma City Thunder in five games in the NBA finals for finals MVP LeBron James' first championship title.

James came to Miami after seven seasons in Cleveland and describes the title win as the best feeling he's ever had.
