It could've been worse
I mean, THAT could've happened in Game 7, right? (But seriously, don't end Game 7 like that or I'll kill myself.)

Finals Game 6 Rehash: Slipped Away
In a game where the Spurs were in control for most of 3 quarters, LeBron James and the Heat turned it on in the 4th, forced overtime and were saved by timely three pointers. Game 7 is on Thursday.
An interesting call in the final seconds of Game 6
At the end of regulation in Game 6, the referees stopped the clock to review whether Ray Allen's game tying shot was really a three pointer.

3LeBron, Allen's late-game heroics force Game 7
In a game for the ages, the Miami Heat snuck past the San Antonio Spurs by a score of 103-100. Ben Golliver and Paul Flannery break down the exhilarating game and look ahead to Game 7.
The Heat's spacing dilemma
LeBron James did his best work in a thrilling Game 6 with Dwyane Wade on the bench. Dwyane Wade has often done his best work in these Finals with LeBron on the bench. Why does that happen, and how does Miami figure out a practical solution?
Refs miss illegal play by Spurs in Game 6
Had Tony Parker made that off-balanced jumper in the final seconds of regulation in Game 6, controversy likely would have ensued.
Pop's Game 7 plan revealed, analyzed
Gregg Popovich made the bizarre decision to reveal his gameplan for Thursday's Game 7 against the Heat. Why did Pop open his playbook, how will his strategy hold up, and how can the Heat stop it?
The unstoppable LeBron
Before Ray Allen's shot or Chris Bosh's blocks, a rare version of LeBron James made an appearance and got the Heat into proper position for the win. Then that LeBron wasn't there. Will he be back in Game 7?
Heat fans live up to their stereotype
Some people were stupid enough to leave one of the best basketball games of the year before the final buzzer. This is their story.
