Oklahoma City Thunder
9:00 p.m. ET
AmericanAirlines Arena, Miami, Fla

LeBron James and the Miami Heat could be hoisting the Larry O'Brien Trophy as 2012 NBA Champions in just a few hours.

Or they could be heading back to Oklahoma City for Game 6 (and potentially Game 7).

Having won three straight games, Miami has an opportunity to close out OKC in Game 5 to earn its first NBA title in the Big 3 era. After losing the opener, the Heat won Game 2 in Oklahoma City to sieze home court advantage. Back in South Beach, the Heatles have grinded two wins to take a 3-1 series lead.

LeBron and company came back from a 17-point deficit and withstood Russell Westbrook's amazing 43-point performance in Game 4, thanks to the surprise help of point guard Mario Chalmers.

Will the Heat finish off the Thunder to win the NBA Championship? Or will Kevin Durant bounce back and force a Game 6?
