P.S. I missed the first 8+ minutes of the first quarter, so I don't know what really happened during that time period.
Game Summary
First Half Analysis of the San Antonio Spurs
However, I can really only review the second quarter, and I was not impressed by what I saw. Duncan didn't score, and he picked up a technical foul (I'll never say that again).
Once again, the Spurs were extremely lethargic at the offensive end, committing nine turnovers. Will they ever learn to take care of the ball? This was the one thing I took away from them, and that's not good at all.
First Half Analysis of the Miami Heat
LeBron James and Dwyane Wade had a combined two points in the first quarter, which is unacceptable for the finals.
However, in the second quarter, LeBron James stepped it up, scoring 11 points on 5-7 shooting. Dwyane Wade got on the board with 6 points in the second quarter.
I'm very impressed with Miami's willingness to get into the paint. All of their shots seem to be coming form drives to the hoop and inside passes. This leads to open looks from three, and fouls, which turn into free throws.
However, Miami isn't taking good care of the ball. Miami had 11 turnovers in the first half, which is absolutely atrocious. They need to nip that right in the bud if they want to even this series.
