    The high turnovers by both teams especially Spurs would have something to do with the A/C issue. It was a good game, but it left a bit of a "not satisfied" taste in my mouth.

    Had a potential to be a great opening game.

    I wish the AC would go out at Toyota Center some time, I'd love to watch all the blue bloods in the crowd flee.

    Yep, next game is on Sunday...but if SA can shoot 58.8 from the field (and 13/25 from 3PT FG), in spite of having 23 Turnovers, then this will be a quick series

    crowd wasn't really booing lebron, but rather booing how long it was taking for him to get off the court. As JVG said, teams with an injury or something like that should usually have to burn a timeout. The refs allow him to take his time and could have killed the momentum Spurs had. Fortunately for Spurs, it didn't stop them.

    BTW

    4th quarter: 14-16 FG, 6-6 3-pt FG

    so sick!

    But he wasn't injured. Anyone whose ever had a cramp before in their life knew what was happening to Lebron. It wasn't anything serious.

    Does Cramping lead to pulls. . ie. hamstring pulls?

    That would be my concern.

    Cramps are not in and of themselves a 'horrible injury'
    very d*mn inconvenient
    but they can come back from that . . . but they can lead to worse. . i think

    Or maybe LeBron seeks... Redder pastures, a team that would still play well even if LeBron took an entire quarter off. ;)

    Given the circumstances with the AC being broken- there is no way they should penalize either team, especially the visiting one, for having players cramp up and then get dragged off the floor. .

    If it is a severe cramp then it can cause muscles to tear, but hopefully that didn't happen.

    I understand that, but just some posters on here saying the crowd was booing Lebron when he was injured. Just giving the reason why
