| So I have a question.
I understand that Miami, preferably, would rather the series not go back to Oklahoma City (and I'm not overly familiar with the effects long term - if any at all - with cramps regarding basketball players), but with a 3-1 game lead, would there be any benefit to the Heat resting Lebron a little more this next game, if this series were to drag out to a game 6 or 7? | |

I'm sure they don't want to let up either. | |

Honestly with more of LeBron's, legacy in the line, even if Spo wanted to sit him, I doubt LeBron would really agree to it. Also I believe they want to shut people up and definitely don't want it going back to OKC | |

Note: Westbrook will probably go off for 50 in game five, and everyone here can call me out for being dead wrong.

| Game 5 should be another good one. I expect the stars on OKC to show up big. | |
