HEAT @ Mavericks
June 20, 2006
WIN: 95-92 |
Dwyane Wade, Udonis Haslem and Antoine Walker each recorded a double-double as the HEAT registered a 95-92 victory over the Mavericks before a sellout crowd of 20,522 at the American Airlines Center to earn its first NBA championship. Miami overcame a 14-point deficit to record the largest come-from-behind win in its postseason history. The Game 6 triumph marked the third game in the Finals in which the HEAT overcame a double-digit deficit to win. Wade who had a game-high 36 points, 10 rebounds, five assists and a team-high four steals was named the NBA Finals MVP. Haslem, whose 15-foot jumper snapped a 79-79 tie with 7:06 left and put Miami ahead to stay and then gave the HEAT a three-point lead after grabbing an offensive rebound and scoring on a put-back with 1:21 remaining, finished with 17 points and 10 rebounds. Walker finished with 14 points and 11 rebounds while Shaquille O’Neal added nine points and a team-high 12 rebounds. This marked the first time in the HEAT’s postseason history it had four players all grab double-figure rebounds in the same game. The HEAT also received key contributions off its bench as Alonzo Mourning totaled eight points, six rebounds and a game-altering five blocks in just 14 minutes of play and James Posey added six points, including a key three-point field goal with 3:43 left that put Miami up by six, and five rebounds in 25 minutes. The Mavericks started strong and enjoyed a 26-12 lead with 2:30 left in the opening quarter. Miami didn’t take its first lead until Posey hit a pair of free throws with 46 seconds left in the second quarter. From that point the HEAT never trailed, although the game was tied three times in the second half. Dirk Nowitzki (29 points and a game-high 15 rebounds) and Josh Howard (14 points and 12 rebounds) each recorded a double-double for Dallas which also received 16 points from Jason Terry and 12 each from Marquis Daniels and Jerry Stackhouse. Miami became just the third team in NBA Finals history to drop the first two games of the series and come back to win the championship. The victory earned HEAT Head Coach Pat Riley his fifth NBA championship as a head coach and seventh overall.

The victory was Miami’s postseason record eighth straight at home and gave the HEAT a 10-1 record at home during the 2006 postseason. After amassing a three-point lead at the conclusion of one quarter of play the HEAT fell behind by 11 points in the second quarter and trailed by eight at intermission. The Dallas lead was still eight points with 1:27 left in the third quarter before the HEAT scored the final seven points of the quarter to pull within one entering the fourth quarter.

Dirk Nowitzki answered with a fadeway 19-foot jumper with 9.1 seconds left to put Dallas back up by one. Nowitzki then fouled Wade from behind in the act of shooting with 1.9 seconds left. Wade hit both shots and when Devin Harris missed a halfcourt shot at the buzzer the HEAT had a 3-2 series lead. Wade set NBA Finals and HEAT postseason records for both free throws made (21) and free throws attempted (25) in the contest.

HEAT vs. Mavericks
June 15, 2006
WIN: 98-74 |
Dwyane Wade scored 36 points and Shaquille O’Neal (17 points and a game-high 13 rebounds) and James Posey (15 points and 10 rebounds) each recorded a double-double as the HEAT notched a 98-74 victory over the Mavericks before a sellout crowd of 20,145 at the AmericanAirlines Arena. The 24-point victory was Miami’s largest during the 2006 postseason and the third largest in a HEAT postseason contest. The 74 points were the fewest allowed by Miami in a 2006 playoff game and the seven points they held the Mavericks to in the fourth quarter set both an NBA Finals record for fewest points in any quarter and a HEAT postseason record for fewest points allowed in a quarter. Miami led by 10 at the half and pushed the lead to 17 points midway through the third quarter when Jerry Stackhouse committed a flagrant foul on O’Neal during a breakaway with 6:29 left in the quarter. The flagrant foul would result in Stackhouse being suspended by the NBA for Game 5. After the resulting free throws, Miami’s lead was 20. Dallas managed to cut the lead back to 10 (80-70) after a three-point play by Devin Harris with 10:35 left in the fourth quarter, but the HEAT outscored the Mavs, 18-4, the rest of the way to even the series at 2-2. Jason Terry led Dallas with 17 points, Dirk Nowitzki and Stackhouse each added 16 and Harris finished with 11. The HEAT shot 51.5 percent (34-66) from the floor compared to just 31.6 percent (25-79) for Dallas and also outrebounded the Mavs by a 48-36 margin. The game was the 100th postseason contest in HEAT history.

WIN: 98-96 |
In what proved to be the turning point of the series, Miami rebounded from a 13-point fourth quarter deficit over the final 6:15 to record a 98-96 victory over the Mavs in front of a sellout crowd of 20,145 at the AmericanAirlines Arena. The 13-point deficit marked the largest fourth quarter deficit overcome in HEAT postseason history. Gary Payton’s 21-foot jumper with 9.3 seconds left, his only field goal attempt of the night, snapped a 95-95 tie and put Miami ahead to stay. After Dirk Nowitzki missed the second of two free throw attempts with 3.4 seconds remaining and Dwyane Wade missed the second of his two attempts with 1.4 seconds left, Dallas had one final chance to tie or win the game, but Wade stole Nowitzki’s inbounds pass with three-tenths of a second remaining to seal Miami’s first NBA Finals victory. Wade scored 15 of his game-high 42 points in the fourth quarter. The 42 points matched his postseason franchise-record. Wade also grabbed a game- and postseason career-high 13 rebounds. Shaquille O’Neal recorded a double-double with 16 points and 11 rebounds and also added a team-high five assists for Miami while Antoine Walker and Jason Williams each contributed 12 points.

Miami controlled Friday night’s game for three quarters, leading 44-36 at halftime and 66-58 late into the third
quarter, but the Dallas Mavericks scored the final eight points of the period to forge a a 66-66 tie into the final frame and eventually held on to defeat the HEAT 91-89 at AmericanAirlines Arena.

Mike James, who scored nine of his career-high 20 points in the quarter, spearheaded the Miami comeback. The HEAT pulled to within two points after Caron Butler made a lay-up to close the score to 88-86 with 1:02 left to play. On the ensuing possession for the Mavericks, Michael Finley missed two consecutive jump shots. After a mad scurry for the basketball on the second miss, Butler pulled down the rebound and raced to the other end of the floor in an attempt to tie the game with 14 seconds left to play. Dallas guard Steve Nash stepped in and drew an offensive foul on Butler. Nash made two free-throws to extend the Mavericks lead to 90-86 with 10 seconds to play after the HEAT had to foul. On the next play James was fouled trying to attempt a three-point shot and connected on all three attempts to pull the HEAT to within one point with three seconds on the clock. The HEAT had to foul Nash again, but he made only one of two, giving Miami one last shot at a tie or win. With less than two seconds remaining HEAT forward Malik Allen’s jump shot rimmed in and out as time expired.
