Lakers vs. Heat Game 1 Preview: It’s winning time

In the first two rounds of the NBA playoffs, the Los Angeles Lakers lost their first game of their series. They bucked that trend in the Western Conference Finals, and they’ll be hoping to keep it that way in Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday, but the Miami Heat will obviously have different plans.

The Heat have played the role of giant killer throughout of playoffs, with their ultimate upset coming in the second round, when they beat Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks in just five games.
