What really perplexed me is spo putting LeBron back in. Even if you think they were under control, cramps need longer than 3 minutes to settle down. You need to let the things settle down. It's like chugging another beer right after puking.

Hey man, you gotta rehydrate.
But yeah, cramps are actually really dangerous. Not only are your muscles at risk of tearing or damage when they're that stressed, the hampered movement can make you clumsy and injure yourself. One of my good friends was playing basketball, got a leg cramp and tried to play through it, then he landed funny and tore his ACL.
The gatorade twitter was interesting last night. A weird game, but still though, I think for Lebron to cramp out the way he did made the the whole situation a lot more "enticing" for all the vultures.

For sure, but I am really surprised Spo is getting such a pass for putting him back in. We don't know how badly LBJ's cramps re-acted up, but the reality is that the Heat could have lost the series for those 30 seconds of trying to steal game 1 if he tore his Calf/Achilles/Hamstring, which is a real possibility when playing on cramped muscles as bad as the ones Lebron's look like.

as if he even remotely cares about the opinions of uneducated sheep. As soon as he felt the cramps coming though he knew he was done. It will be interesting to see how they will prevent this from happening again, atleast until they get back to miami where they will make it cooler than usual, and in game 2 the air conditioning probably won't be "fixed"
