As the season is coming to an epic conclusion, all that remains is the best teams in the Eastern and Western Conference. The Miami Heats concluded the final game in the semi finals against the Indiana Pacers in game 7 last week. Paul George and the Pacers were just not enough to defeat the Heats as the game ended 76 to 99. Now, Tony Parker and the San Antonio Spurs are able to rise up to the challenge and defeat the defending champions.
San Antonio toppled the Miami Heat, 92-88, in Game 1 of the NBA Finals. After a phenomenal sweep against the Memphis Grizzlies, the team had a week and a half to recover and prep for the finals. Tony Parker led game 1 with a total of 21 points and six assists with just only one turnover. He is proving himself to be a great pointer guard, capable of playing at the highest level with the most elite players. Tim Duncan came in second with 20 points and 14 rebounds. He had a clutch step back jump shot right right before the buzzer went off. Finally Manu Ginobili added 13 points off the bench and played tight defense on the perimeter while Danny Green was the sharp shooter of the night with 12 points from four three pointers.
The Heats had not as much time to rest as the Spurs, and it seems Lebron did not have energy to carry his team this time. He did score a triple double though with 18 points, 18 rebounds and 10 assists. On the NBA website, commentators say Dwayne Wade was playing as well as game 7 against the Pacers with 17 points. Chris Bosh came in third with 13 points and five rebounds.
Game 1 was already pretty close with the Spurs proving that they will be more of a match for the Heats. The series will be close all the way till the end with no telling which team is the better team. Only time will be able to tell who the best team on the 2013 NBA season is.
