James scored 16 of his 30 points in the decisive period, Udonis Haslem added 16 and the Heat pulled off a second-half rally to move one win away from the NBA Finals after beating the Indiana Pacers 90-79 on Thursday night.
• "With LeBron, it's not what he says all the time," Haslem said. "It's just the look he gives."
• And that look was back when the Heat needed it most, just like last year.
