When the air conditioning broke in Game 1 of the NBA Finals in San Antonio on Thursday evening, LeBron James had trouble breathing. He eventually cramped, could not move his left leg, had to be carried to the bench, and missed nearly the last half the fourth quarter in the Heat’s loss. The Spurs took over after James was sidelined.
And Gatorade let everyone know that LeBron James was not their client. James is sponsored by Powerade, a Gatorade competitor.
@LazyBumDrew we were waiting on the sidelines, but he prefers to drink something else.

@ryanbkoo The person cramping wasn’t our client. Our athletes can take the heat.
