Heat Win Game 5 and NBA Championship !!
The table for an elimination game has been set. The Miami Heat lead the best-of-seven series 3-1 over the Oklahoma City Thunder.
This is the first time LeBron James has won three games in the NBA Finals. In 2007 he was swept and last year he could not win after the third game of the series.
He stands one win away from capturing his first ring.

For those who are not James fans, then you can tune into the game to see if Oklahoma City can rally back.
They have not lost four in a row in their last 276 straight games.
LeBron haters have been able to refer to him as a "choker." Granted that the Heat are not up 3-0, what could be a bigger choke act than losing a championship after being up 3-1 in the series?
He has been playing excellent basketball throughout the playoffs, so the chances that he will choke now are fragile.
Kevin Durant will attempt to keep his team in the series. They won four games in a row in the Western Conference Finals versus a San Antonio Spurs team that everybody considered capable of winning the NBA championship.
If the Thunder can get the series back to Oklahoma, they could turn this series around.
They possess the loudest crowd in basketball. With a win tonight, Durant and the Thunder could be on the verge of making history as no team has ever returned from a 1-3 Finals deficit.
