The NBA Finals 2014 Game 4 takes place on Thursday night with the San Antonio Spurs with the opportunity to move within one more victory of the Championship. The Miami Heat suffered a rare blowout in Game 3, and they will no doubt be looking to put things right tonight.
The San Antonio Spurs against the Miami Heat in Game 4 of the NBA Finals 2014 will take place at the AmericanAirlines Arena in Florida from 9 p.m. EST. The game can also be watched online through live stream via the link provided below.
The first quarter if Game 3 was extraordinary. The Spurs offense was able to operate as if the Miami defense simply wasn't there. San Antonio managed to pile on 41 points in that opening period, and the game was almost already gone by the time things got to half time, with the Heat 50-71 down.
The worrying thing for the Heat is that this is not the first time their defense has gone missing in this series. A similar blowout occurred in the fourth quarter of Game 1.
LeBron James must rally his troops tonight if the Heat are going to get back into the series, and if they suffer another loss tonight it will leave them on the verge of losing their title. They would then have to go on the road to San Antonio for Game 5 being 3-1 behind.
"We did not play a good basketball game," Spoelstra said. "All of us have owned that. It doesn't matter ultimately how many you lose by or what the game is like. You have to learn from it, move on."
The Heat have won 13 straight games in the postseason after suffering a loss, and they dare not lose that record tonight.
