The Suns and Heat will be looking to regain control of their series tonight after the top seeds dropped a pair of road games to their opponents.
Philadelphia 76ers at Miami Heat
Eastern Conference Semi-Finals: Game 5
The Miami Heat will return the South Beach after squandering a 2-0 lead in the series to the Philadelphia 76ers, who won both games in Philly this weekend. They’ll also be without Kyle Lowry, who will be sidelined with a hamstring injury. Miami laid an egg in Game 3 and then couldn’t overcome James Harden’s big fourth-quarter performance in Game 4 on Sunday night. Now they’ll be looking to regain control in the series at home.

Dallas Mavericks at Phoenix Suns
Western Conference Semi-Finals: Game 5
The Phoenix Suns surprised head coach Monty Williams with his Coach of the Year award at practice on Monday, but now they’ll have to bring the coach home a victory on their home floor tonight if they want to regain control of their series with the Dallas Mavericks. The Mavs took both games in Dallas this weekend to crawl out of an 0-2 hole, and now the pressure is on the Suns to answer the Mavs’ recent surge in Game 5.
