Heat beat Bulls 83-80 to set date with Mavericks

CHICAGO – This was how LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh envisioned it when they decided to unite in Miami, and now that a championship is in sight, they're not offering any apologies.
Don't like the decision?
Still upset about how everything unfolded?
Fine, but understand this:
"I wanted to team up with some guys that I understood would never die down in the moment," James said. "The opportunity presented itself with this great organization, and D-Wade came to me and said it was possible. We made it happen."
Did they ever, just when it seemed this series was about to be extended.
James scored 28 points, Wade added 21, and they led a furious rally in the final minutes as the Heat eliminated Derrick Rose and the Chicago Bulls 83-80 in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals on Thursday night.
James and Wade were simply spectacular down the stretch, each scoring eight during a game-ending 18-3 run as the Heat wiped out a 12-point deficit to win the series.
Now, they are headed back to the NBA finals for the first time since 2006, and in a fitting twist, they'll be facing the Mavericks. Back then, with Wade leading the way, Miami beat Dallas to capture the championship. This time, it'll be James and Dirk Nowitzki going at it for their first rings.
