"They can get a few days or a few months or whatever the case may be on being happy about not only myself, but the Miami Heat not accomplishing their goal. But they have to get back to the real world at some point." Wow -- think Pat Riley may have a little buyer's remorse after listening to that? Actually the remorse probably really kicked in after seeing LeBron pass |

| at happened." James supposedly came to South Beach to make things easier on himself. I'm not sure if "The King" can take self-inventory these days but I wonder if he could honestly surmise things are easier for him now, alongside a cunning and crafty teammate who seems to be as disingenuous as the most artful of politicians. LeBron can't play any sympathy cards. It's too late for that. He's already the pariah. A maturity card or a leadership card could, however, save himself and the Miami Heat. |

MIAMI (AP) - LeBron James is aware of the criticism about his play in the NBA finals. He says his thoughts are on more pressing matters. Like helping the Miami Heat force the Dallas Mavericks into Game 7. The Mavericks lead 3-2 in the championship series. For Dallas, it could be comeuppance for 2006, when Miami won Game 6 on the Mavs' home floor. Now the Mavericks are in the same position. James has managed 11 points so far in the fourth quarters of finals games. Heat forward Udonis Has |

A facilitator may help you win an NBA championship but you can bet he's setting up a player with ice in his veins, an executioner that thrives with a dagger in his hands. The Miami Heat are still in this series. The 2-3-2 format heavily favors the team that earned home-court advantage in the regular season. Game 5 in North Texas was simply a swing before things shifted back to Miami for Game 6 on Sunday and, possibly, a winner |

| (Sports Network) - The NBA Finals will resume tonight in Dallas, as the Mavericks host the Miami Heat in the critical Game 5. The Mavs rallied behind a sick leader to knot the series at two games apiece with a thrilling 86-83 triumph on Tuesday. It wasn't just Dirk Nowitzki's hand that was ailing in Game 4, it was the rest of his body, too. "I just battled it out," said Nowitzki, who played despite suffering from a sinus infection and a fever that reached 101 earlier in the day. Nowitzki scored |

DALLAS (AP) - For the first time in more than four years, LeBron James did not score in double figures. And the Miami Heat nearly pulled out Game 4 of the NBA finals anyway. James finished with eight points on 3-for-11 shooting from the field, and although he added nine rebounds and seven assists, his scoring - or lack thereof - will be the talking point for the next two days. Game 5 is Thursday night in Dallas, with the finals now a best-of-three series. It's the ninth time in 717 ca |

| (Sports Network) - The NBA Finals will resume tonight in Dallas, as the Mavericks host the Miami Heat in Game 4. Miami regained home-court advantage and went a leg up in the set on Sunday in North Texas when Dallas native Chris Bosh buried the go-ahead jumper with 39.6 seconds left, and the Heat survived another late shot from Dirk Nowitzki to beat the Mavs, 88-86, and take a 2-1 series lead. After Dwyane Wade had scored seven straight points for the Heat, Bosh worked his way into a wide-open p |

DALLAS (AP) - It may have been the simplest play the Miami Heat ran all night. Had it not decided the game - and given Miami control of the NBA finals - it wouldn't have made any highlight reel, generated any interest, ever been replayed. A pick-and-roll, followed by two passes to rotate the ball over to the opposite side of the court. A screen to create space. An easy open jumper. ``Fundamental basketball,'' Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said, ``at its best.'' And with that, the Heat are t |

DALLAS (AP) - Tie game, under a minute left, control of the NBA finals on the line. The Miami Heat turned to Chris Bosh and the hometown kid delivered. Bosh's jumper from the left baseline with 39.6 seconds left gave the Heat an 88-86 lead, and it stayed that way until the end as Miami took control of the NBA finals by winning Game 3 against the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday night.

| Dallas, TX (Sports Network) - Dwyane Wade poured in 19 points, guiding the Miami Heat to a 47-42 lead over the Dallas Mavericks at halftime in Game 3 of the NBA Finals. LeBron James added 10 points for the Heat, who went ahead by as many as 14 before a late surge from the Mavericks narrowed the gap. The series is tied 1-1 after Dirk Nowitzki, despite playing with a small splint on his injured left middle finger, scored the final nine points for the Mavericks on Thursday to lead them back from a |
