In a potential NBA Finals preview, the Miami Heat defeated the visiting San Antonio Spurs 96-92 in a thriller that gave Miami its first win over San Antonio in more than three years.

Dwyane Wade led the Heat with 28 points, 13 coming in the fourth quarter while Shaq added 27 points, enough to overcome the 24 point effort on San Antonio guards Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker, who combined for 46 points.
