The NBA Playoffs Standings has the Spurs up 1-0 on the Miami Heat in the 2014 Finals after winning Game 1 and now LeBron James needs a win in Game 2 to get the series evened up at 1-1 after he had to leave the first game with cramps and that played a big factor in the outcome of the game and now the Big 3 have to rebound after a loss.
James and the Heat have always been able to bounce back and this time it will be very tough if the Spurs shoot like they did in Game 1. Danny Green was great from three and the team benefitted from the 90 degree heat after the air conditioning failed and that made the conditions in the arena very hot and while both teams had to deal with it, it affected how things played out and now James is looking to have a bounce back game to lead his team to a win.
James scored 25 points and had three assists with six rebounds, while Manu Ginobili had a double-double with 16 points and 11 assists with five rebounds and he was very good down the stretch. San Antonio pulled away and blew out Miami in the fourth quarter and one of the main reasons was James having to lead the game and now the Spurs say they have fixed the issue and Miami must find a way to rebound. The team lost Game 1 of the finals last season as well and this is the first finals rematch since the 1998 season.
Tony Parker had a very good game as well with 19 points and eight assists and the Spurs continued their strong play in the finals in Game 1, winning all six times they have played. James shut down Green all game before cramping out and Dwyane Wade had 19 points, while Chris Bosh had 18 and the Heat could not stand the heat on Thursday night.
