Heat Beat Mavericks for First NBA Title
Dwyane Wade dazzled Dallas one last time - and with a sizzling four-game comeback, the Miami Heat are NBA champions for the first time. Just as Shaquille O'Neal and coach Pat Riley predicted nine years apart, there will be a parade in South Florida. The man they call "Flash" had 36 points and 10 rebounds in the teeth of a hostile Dallas crowd, capping his magnificent playoffs by leading Miami past the Mavericks 95-92 Tuesday night as the Heat roared back from a two-game deficit to win the NBA finals in six games. Wade cemented his superstardom with a dominant four-game performance capped by four pressure-packed, final-minute free throws in the same building where Miami lost the first two games of the finals. Where there's a Wade, there's a will. His grace added a fifth ring to Riley's finger - third-most among NBA coaches - and a fourth to O'Neal's big hand.
