MIAMI (AP) - LeBron James is a world champion, and the Miami Heat has climbed to the top of NBA.

James capped his title bid with 26 points, 13 assists and 11 rebounds. Chris Bosh added 23 points.  Dwyane Wade scored 20 points, and the Heat finished off the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 5 of the NBA Finals on Thursday night, winning 121-106.

Mike Miller scored 23 points on 7-for-8 shooting from 3-point range for Miami, which adds this title to the one it claimed in 2006.

Kevin Durant scored 32 points for the Thunder, who took Game 1 of the series and then dropped four straight. James, Wade, and Bosh came out with 3:01 left, and the Heat crowd roared the rest of the way.
