The Heat were able to stave off elimination in Game 5, and will have to do so again on Sunday night
The Miami Heat were facing elimination in Game 5 Friday night, but the biggest surprise team from inside the bubble wasn’t ready for its season to come to an end Thanks largely to a 35-point, 12-rebound, 11-assist performance from Jimmy Butler, Miami was able to pull out a 111-108 win over the Lakers to extend the NBA Finals and force a Game 6 Sunday night

The Lakers still lead the series 3-2, but the Heat were definitely able to capture some momentum with their performance While Butler led the way for Miami, he had a lot of help as five other Heat players scored in double figures, including Duncan Robinson, who tallied 26 points and dropped seven 3s

Los Angeles still holds a 3-2 Finals lead in the series, but will need more from its role players in Game 6 LeBron James and Anthony Davis combined for 68 points, but only one other player on the team even scored in double figures A bit more of a balanced attack would be beneficial for the Lakers James and Davis can do a whole lot on the floor, but they can’t do everything

Here’s everything you need to know about Game 6 between the Lakers and Heat

Storylines
Lakers: The biggest concern for the Lakers heading into Game 6 is the health of Anthony Davis, who re-aggravated a heel contusion he suffered in the previous series against the Denver Nuggets Although he remained in the game, he was clearly bothered by the heel He was “struggling to move a little bit,” Lakers head coach Frank Vogel said after the loss The Lakers have relied heavily on Davis on both ends of the floor throughout the series, and him being healthy will greatly impact the Lakers’ ability to close out the series against the Heat

Heat: Miami is still down in the series, but should feel relatively good about where its at The Heat won Game 3, lost Game 4 by just six points and then bested the Lakers again in Game 5 Jimmy Butler is playing the best basketball of his career, and his getting help from a plethora of other contributors The Heat are missing starting point guard Goran Dragic throughout the series, and his status for Game 6 is not known yet Although highly improbable with a torn plantar fascia in his left, Dragic’s return would obviously be a big boost for Miami

Prediction, Picks
LeBron James delivered an epic performance in Game 5, and it still wasn’t enough for the Lakers to pull out a win But while James himself can’t possibly be much better in Game 6, those around him can Davis finished Game 5 with 28 points, but he was clearly hampered by his heel The Lakers are hoping that he feels a bit better on Sunday night Outside of James and Davis, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope was the only other Laker to score in double figures, and that will need to change for the Lakers to close out the series With a title hanging in the balance, expect LeBron to come out focused and set the tone for LA early in Game 6 If his supporting cast can follow his lead a bit better this time, the Lakers should come out on top

The Miami Heat avoided elimination with a pressure-filled 111-108 win over the Los Angeles Lakers in Game 5 of the NBA Finals on Friday, thanks to another incredible performance from Jimmy Butler, who made the go-ahead free throws with just under 17 seconds left in the game

The Heat led for most of the game, thanks to brilliant performances from Butler and Duncan Robinson, but the Lakers came roaring back in the fourth quarter to take the lead behind the outstanding play of LeBron James and Anthony Davis The end of the game was a spectacular back-and-forth affair that will go down as one of the all-time NBA Finals finishes

Danny Green missed a potential go-ahead 3-pointer which was followed by a Markieff Morris turnover, then LeBron James missed a desperation shot at the buzzer to seal the Miami win

Butler finished with 35 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists for the Heat, while Robinson added 26 points on 7-for-13 3-point shooting James had 40 points, 13 rebounds and seven assists and Davis put up 28 points, 12 rebounds, three steals and three blocks in the loss

Game 6 will take place on Sunday at 7:30 pm ET First, though, are a few takeaways from an incredible Game 5

1 Let that sink in
In the sports world we’re very quick to think about what’s next The second round is over? Let’s look ahead to the conference finals A team won the championship? Let’s check out their list of offseason free-agent targets Sometimes we need to remember to sit back and appreciate what we’ve just witnessed

This was one of the best games you’ll ever watch in any sport The level of competitiveness, execution and effort was clearly at another level, led by jaw-dropping performances from Butler and James Just when you thought one team had taken control, the other team came storming back Over And over Again

We can think about Game 6 tomorrow But for tonight, sit back and take stock of one of the best NBA games we’ve ever seen

2 Jimmy vs LeBron
Those not ready to put Jimmy Butler in the superstar tier, or not convinced he could be the best player on a championship-caliber team, have had their arguments thrown in the dumpster with this NBA Finals performance Not only did he put up another monster stat line, joining LeBron (who else?) as the only players to record multiple 30-point triple-doubles in a Finals series, but he also controlled the offense all night long and made every play that the Heat needed down the stretch while locking up defensively He scored eight of Miami’s last 10 points — two pull-up jumpers and four free throws — and drew a foul on Davis with just under 17 seconds left to put the Heat up for good

“That’s what my team asked of me That’s what they needed me to do,” Butler said of his Game 5 performance “I think [Pat Riley] and [Erik Spoelstra] brought me here for that reason, to help us win games And I have to continue to do that for two more games”

It’s funny how basketball works If the Lakers had won the title on Friday night, we’d be talking first and foremost about LeBron’s iconic performance as he accepted his Finals MVP trophy Instead we’re talking about the Heat and Butler, but don’t let that overshadow the brilliance that James displayed in Game 5

LeBron was locked in from the opening tip, shooting a ridiculous 15 for 21 from the field and 6 of9 from 3-point range en route to 40 points, 13 rebounds and seven assists His layup with 58 seconds left gave the Lakers the lead, and his kick out to Green for a wide-open 3-pointer on the team’s penultimate possession might have been a Michael Jordan-to-Steve Kerr moment for LeBron Instead Green missed, and we’re now discussing if we’ve ever seen a better performance in a Finals loss

“He was able to make one more play than I was able to make tonight,” James said of Butler after the game “And come away with the victory”

3 Miami runs on Duncan
Duncan Robinson entered Friday night’s game with eight made 3-pointers in four NBA Finals games He almost matched that with seven in Game 5, and the Heat needed every single one Robinson affects every game for the Heat whether he’s making shots or not because of the defensive attention he draws, but he was able to get loose for some of the cleanest looks he’s gotten all series on Friday He also had a follow-up dunk, and took a key charge on James in the fourth quarter

The Lakers defense lost track of him for a split-second on multiple instances, and Robinson proved that’s all he needs to put the ball in the basket
