Dwyane Wade watched the ball leave Kobe Bryant's hand and sail toward the basket, just as time expired. He watched it drop over the front of the rim, then bounce tantalizingly, adding even more drama to a suspenseful ending. Finally, the ball fell away. "About time we got a break," Wade said. As the saying goes, the Miami Heat made their own breaks Friday night.
