Lil Wayne may have been out at Miami's Liv nightclub on Sunday (June 12) celebrating the Dallas Mavericks' NBA championship, but his fans took to Twitter to celebrate Weezy. With all of their collective online efforts before, during and after the premiere of "MTV2 Presents: Lil Wayne Unplugged," fans made "Lil Wayne Unplugged" a trending topic.

" 'Lil Wayne Unplugged' was the best thing I've ever watched on TV!! Hopefully there's a DVD for it," tweeted iReadWeezy. "I wish i was there (Lil Wayne Unplugged)," added @_BriRozay.

The "Unplugged" special was broadcast simultaneously on MTV2, MTV and MTV.com Sunday night. And though that happened to be the same time the Dallas Mavericks defeated the Miami Heat in the championship-clinching game of the NBA Finals, fans managed to watch as Weezy tore through hits like "A Milli," "Fireman," a cover of Tupac's "Hail Mary," "6 Foot 7 Foot" and his latest, "Nightmares of the Bottom."

"Watching this Lil Wayne unplugged during halftime ... pretty dope," tweeted Question210.

Others tuned in to the hour-long special in its entirety as they commented on Wayne's set-list. For @dizturbdwun, he was particularly impressed when Birdman Jr. performed a mash-up of his Tha Carter IV single "How to Love" and his #1 hit "Lollipop": "That's tight how they blended 'How to Love' & 'Lollipop' on 'Lil Wayne Unplugged.' They need to release that to iTunes."

B32LLS is ready to purchase a retail version of Tunechi's special as well. "I gotta buy the lil wayne unplugged that gotta hit stores asap," he blasted out on Twitter.

Some fans had to postpone their "Unplugged" viewing, however. In the comments of MTV News' post-show recap, Emily Pearl Davis wrote, "Unfortunately, I missed the show, but after reading this, I know just how intense it was (of course)! Wayne's a god."

She shouldn't worry too much, though. "MTV2 Presents: Lil Wayne Unplugged" is available on-demand on MTV.com right now, and it re-airs on MTV2 on Monday (June 13) at 9 p.m. ET.
