Oh, it wasn’t easy for the Heat, and got scary for a few minutes, when (LeBron) James had to be helped off the court with 5:15 remaining midway through the fourth quarter with his cramp.

“It’s basically like your legs shut down, your body shuts down, there’s nothing you can do about it,” said James, who said he was feeling much better after the game. “Hopefully I can stay hydrated where it doesn’t happen again.”

But despite being carried off the court, James still had work to do, returning to convert a 3-pointer with 2:51 to that put the Heat up for good 97-94.

“I was just trying to make a play,” James said. “If I was out on the floor, I just wanted to try to make a play with the limited mobility I had.”
