Mavericks come from behind to stun Heat

Mavericks come from behind to stun Heat
The Dallas Mavericks levelled the NBA finals series at 1-1 with a spirited 95-93 win over the Miami Heat in Florida.

The Mavs, who lost the first game earlier this week, had been 15 points behind at one stage in the final quarter but fired back to edge their rivals in the second game of the decider.
Dirk Nowitzki was unsurprisingly central to the win and his lay-up with the clock registering 3.6 seconds remaining paved the way to victory. Indeed, Nowitzki poured in the Mavs' final nine points en route to his total of 24 points and 11 rebounds.
The Heat, who looked sharp for the most part but also suffered momentary lapses, had Dwyane Wade score 36.
The Heat led 88-73 with 7.15 left on the clock but let it slip when it mattered, with Nowitzki - nursing an injured figure - over-turning the advantage, before Wade missed a speculative three-pointer on the buzzer to save it for the Heat.
