Default Miami Heat makes history
Dwayne Wade scored 36 points and Udonis Haslem had 17 points and 10 rebounds as Miami beat Dallas 95-92 to win the first National Basketball Association title in its 18-year history.

Heat capped a rare comeback today by becoming the only the third team to rally from an 0-2 series deficit to win the Larry O'Brien Trophy.

Miami centre Shaquille O'Neal won his fourth NBA title and first since 2002 with Los Angeles Lakers.

Heat coach Pat Riley earned his fifth ring. He coached the Lakers to four NBA titles in the 1980s.

Miami joins the 1977 Portland Trail Blazers and 1969 Boston Celtics as the only NBA champion to rebound from two losses to win the series.

Dallas showed once again that it is a team in disarray as it dropped the last four games of the series, including three straight in Miami.
