Heat Hope to Force Game 7
MIAMI (AP) – LeBron James came to Miami last summer for the chance to be a champion.
He arrived back here Friday just hoping to be a survivor.
The Dallas Mavericks have a 3-2 lead in the NBA finals and can win their first championship Sunday night. Less than a year after the Heat’s free agent victory celebration, the real party might belong to Dirk Nowitzki.
Dwyane Wade says the Mavs have momentum but “each game is its own,” and that the Heat are confident.
So are the Mavericks, whose offense finally started clicking in Game 5 the way they believed it would. They get two chances to close out the Heat but stress the importance of doing it on the first try.
Guard Jason Terry says that “Game 6 is Game 7 for us.”
