Two nights ago, Dallas punched their ticket to the Finals and last night, Miami did the same thing. This 2006 Finals rematch certainly isn’t lacking star power.
LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh had a plan when they decided to team up in Miami and chase a championship together.
Now they have their shot.
After the wild courtship, the decision and a difficult season, the Heat are playing for the title.
James scored 28 points, Wade added 21, and they led a furious rally in the final minutes as Miami eliminated Derrick Rose and the Chicago Bulls 83-80 in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals on Thursday.
James and Wade were simply spectacular down the stretch, each scoring eight during a game-ending 18-3 run as the Heat wiped out a 12-point deficit to win the series.
