------------Game time is just minutes away-------------
It's the Miami Heat vs. San Antonio Spurs in Game 4 of the 2013 NBA Finals. The Spurs lead the series 2-1 after crushing mia in Game 3. If you can't watch the game, check out the live blog with scoring updates and the latest stats from Game 4 as the Spurs are looking to gain a 3-1 series lead while the Heat look to tie things up.
One question has been answered; Tony Parker will be starting in Game 4 after an MRI showed a strained hamstring. Parker momentarily left Game 3, but the Spurs didn't need his help. Parker scored six points and San Antonio cruised to victory on the back of Gary Neal and game-high scorer Danny Green. They combined to hit 13 three-pointers while combining to score 51 of the Spurs 113 points. Green is known for his defense, while Neal is a player coming off the bench to get starters some rest. Both went off in Game 3 and helped the Spurs take a 2-1 lead.
The Heat have one question still lingering, is Coach Erik Spoelstra benching Udonish Haslem and starting Mike Miller? Miller has been almost perfect from three-point range. As a matter of fact, the last time Miller missed a three-pointer, it was Game 1 of the series. He's shot 8-9 from beyond the arc and finished Game 3 with 15 points as he went 5-5 from three.
LeBron James hasn't showed up on the offensive end. Game 1 was a strong performance, especially after picking up a triple-double, scoring 18 points, grabbing 18 rebounds and dishing 10 assists. James distributing the ball is great, but the Heat need him to score. Looks like Kawhi Leonard is getting the job done. James continues to slack on getting to the line and, as a result, the entire Heat team has had trouble drawing fouls and getting to the free throw line. If James can't score, the Heat are in trouble. Nobody has been able to step up aside from Mario Chalmers in Game 2 and that won't happen to often. Chalmers had zero points in Game 3, proving inconsistent.
The Heat can't lose Game 4. With a loss, Miami risks getting beaten in five games as Game 5 will also take place in San Antonio at the AT&T Center. The Spurs are a great team at home having lost only one game in their home court.
