Miami Heat forward LeBron James has revealed that he feels "blessed" to get a shot at yet another NBA title as his side prepare for the 2014 Finals.
The closing encounter of the post-season will see the Heat take on the San Antonio Spurs in a rematch of last year's Finals, with James stating how lucky he feels ahead of game one.
"I'm blessed, man. That's all I can say," said the four-time MVP, according to the official NBA website.
"This is my fifth appearance in a finals. I'm blessed. I was a kid who watched so many finals appearances and, you know, watched Michael Jordan and watched Shaq and Kobe ... we watched throwback finals games.
"I just wished maybe I could see the finals verbiage behind me and be a part of this."
The opening game of the Final gets underway on Thursday.
