The Miami Heat will host Game 3 of the NBA Finals tonight when the Oklahoma City Thunder roll into town in attempt to pull ahead in the now tied series.

The clubs split the two Oklahoma City home contests with the Heat taking the most recent contest.  Despite an impressive Thunder comeback attempt, Miami regained its composure in Game 2's waning minutes.

A win tonight obviously gives one team a lead, but what are the consequences for a club like the Heat falling into a 2-1 hole?  Miami is in their second consecutive Finals series.  After failing last season, Lebron James is arguably under more pressure tan the entire OKC roster to achieve the success that has eluded him thus far in his career.

Chris Bosh's return to the Heat lineup was integral to the Heat's success in Game 2. Though his minutes have been reduced, he has provided a force in the middle that Miami certainly missed.

Tonight he may very well be the deciding factor once more.
