/ CBS Miami

MIAMI (CBSMiami/AP) - The Miami Heat will face the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals.

It's the Spurs and the Heat in the NBA Finals for the second straight season, with San Antonio punching its ticket by beating Oklahoma City 112-107 in overtime in Game 6 of the Western Conference finals Saturday night.

Miami eliminated Indiana in Game 6 of the East series Friday night. The Heat topped the Spurs in a classic seven-game series a year ago for their second consecutive championship.

The last Finals rematch came in 1998, when Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls topped the Utah Jazz for the second straight season.

Game 1 is Thursday night in San Antonio.
