If you are the spurs, how much of a rush are you in to fix this A/C for game 2

Having Lebron cramp up killed the spirit of the team as well

best part was Van Gundy saying if your the Spurs you want LeBron out there. LOL Like anyone is gonna care LeBron got cramps in game 1 if they lose a 6 or 7 game series, it'll be a minor footnote

Jackson was like yeah right....

If not for one shot by Allen Lebrons entire career would be one big excuse

I would say they easily get it fixed by Sunday, but if they didn't, should the Heat boycott because they an't live up to the team name?

Somebody is going to mention it, might as well be me... lol.

So, if Michael Jordan was cramping in the NBA finals, do you think he'd play through it, or would he sit the 4th quarter and watch the game slip away, like LeBron?

Lebron could barely walk....he would've been hurting his team staying in. I think Jordan would've done the smart thing and also sit out

I find it hard to believe that the temperature in the AT&T Center was what was causing the cramps, I play basketball all summer long in Texas at lunchtime, and we've played when it was 112 degrees out. In the summer if it's 90 degrees we're happy, because most of the time it's between 95 and 105.

When they started talking about the heat and A/C being out I was thinking people are gonna start cramping up. I remember a few years back Michigan st was in hawaii playing and the A/C wasnt out but they all started dropping like flies.

You can't play through cramps unless they go away. It's easier to play with a fractured ankle than cramps. Even MJ couldn't play with a cramp.

Every time it's hot at football games everyone is worried about cramps. Constant fluids, but if it catches you, you're immobile. Sucks that the AC in the stadium played such an effect on this game.

Bullshit. I know what its like to play through cramps as I've done it multiple times during long tennis matches. You see guys do it in 5 set matches all the time.

I was once cramping so bad just after a match, my wife had to call an ambulance as I needed an IV. I had sweated out all my potassum and electrolites. I made the mistake of drinking plenty but not eating anything before or during the match.

What was the temperature in the old Boston Garden when the C's and Lakers played? I believe well over 90 degrees

Maybe steroids really make your muscles susceptible to cramps?
