It should have never been played...

Everyone was at the same disadvantage.

If it was Boris Diaw suffering from cramps NO ONE would care this morning.

Open the doors. Bring in fans.

There hasn’t always been AC for B-ball players.

I am a bit confused.

Did the entire arena not have AC or did the AC only work where the Spurs players happened to be standing, running and shooting, but not where the Miami players were?

Does anybody care?

I read a piece on ESPN or FOX yesterday: more people watched the THREE day NFL draft than watched the recent SEVEN game series featuring the mighty Lebron James.

As the writer said (paraphrase): More people tuned in to watch a guy stand at a podium and read names than did to watch a deciding playoff series.

As a Clevelander, my personal hatred for LeBron James clouds my judgment as I have been hoping Karma and a bus would hit him any time now. I am not even an NBA fan or viewer.

Uh ... two teams played in that “sauna” and only one player had cramps. Most of the Spurs players are much older than “king” James too.

WoW!

Oh the sacrifice, the humanity...really, a hot arena...must have been excruciating, I hope they get some extra pay for putting their life on the line to serve up some entertainment.

You mean these guys get paid millions of dollars to “play a game” in the heat...That’s a lot like an Army Private that gets paid $23,000 annually to serve in Afghanistan with his life on the line. Yeah, a lot like that.

Sorry, give a damn is busted...no tears shed here.

Wow that’s a rather hispanic name for being totally afraid of heat. 90 degrees, BFD. It was 108 in Tucson yesterday and outdoor sports were played.

And no the outcome isn’t compromised, both teams played under the same conditions. Less than ideal conditions yes, but still the same. Toughen up, earn your game checks.

No one, including LeBron, was complaining about the heat. A bigger question is whether the AC outage was “accidental.” Did the Heat get
Belichick-ed?

I remember game 7 between Lakers and Celtics when the
AC was broken at the Garden. Nobody whined about having
cramps. Robert Parish weighed 11 pounds lighter after the
game. That’s alot of sweat.
