LEBRON SCORES 35 AS HEAT POWER PAST SPURS IN GAME 2 OF THE NBA FINALS

Lebron fully recovered from his cramp injuries that sidelined him in game 1, scoring 35 points with 10 boards to lead the Heat to a 98-96 win in game 2 of the NBA finals. “Obviously, having No. 6 in the game at the end was a plus for us,” Dwyane Wade said. The Heat were a completely different team with LeBron on the floor as the multi-time MVP dominated a Spurs lineup of Tim Duncan, Kawhi Leonard, Tiago Splitter, Tony Parker, and Danny Green. “What happened on Thursday was Thursday,” James said. “My whole focus was how I was going to try to help this team even this up and just try to make some plays.”

Chris Bosh, who had 18 points made the go-ahead three with 1:18 left to play in the 4th and the Heat won their 13th straight game following a postseason loss. Lebron also made a 3 and a few key freethrows down the stretch to seal the win and silence the critics. “Down the end there they executed really well,” Duncan said. “LeBron made some great passes and guys made open shots. We had the same result in the first game. They kind of flipped it in this one.”

On a side note Tim Duncan tied Magic for most postseason double-doubles.
