LeBron was at 33 minutes, Parker was at 34(and was reportedly having some trouble as well, just clearly not as much). How your body handles heat is about a lot more than just 'being athletic' as well. LeBron is one of the largest men on that court, and has a legendary motor(which may be why he has suffered from cramping in the past as well). | ||

The fact that he is affected by harsh conditions makes sense as well. Carrying around 260(?)lbs with his playstyle is a gigantic effort, even more so in that heat. He looked absolutely dead on the bench there. Severe cramps is nothing you can play through either. It's not a real Injury but you just can not move when you have them. It just doesn't work. | ||

If anything the series depends much more on Parker's health and Ginobili's play (he killed us in 6 & 7 last year). Ironically Lebron can't overcome the heat... Danny green has hit the most 3s and has one of the highest 3 point % between all the players. His impact is huge because 3 point shooting can be really streaky. | ||

I refuse to believe it's because he works harder than EVERYBODY else on the court. Granted, the Heat need a lot more from Lebron than the Spurs need from any of their members. Also, 22 TOs? That's def going to improve drastically next game. | ||

You can tear a muscle fairly badly if you try to pay on them. | ||

People praise Kobe for making 2 free throws and walking off with a torn archiles heel but every doctor will say you this was just stupid. Better look stupid then loosing the finals because of your ego. | ||

Talk radio is hilarious on this subject by the way. He only had to be carried off the court, clearly Lebron doesn't want to win enough etc etc. Hopefully game 2 is a little less turnover prone, but it was really nice to watch two teams that can actually play good basketball both ways. Also, I don't know how many noticed but there was a huge section at the end of the game where they played without t.v. breaks and it was so much more enjoyable to watch. | ||
