CCTV9英语新闻：Heat, Spurs prepare for game seven

 　

　Miami had an easy-going training session ahead of the game. James not even wearing his basketball sneakers. The Heat superstar practicing three point shots over and over again during much of the session.

　　Dwyane Wade 1 also looked easy. The 31-year-old injured his knee in Game 6 and received medication during the intermission. The guard said he still suffers from swells 2 and stiffness 3, but stressed he will play on Thursday.
　　On the other side of the court, Spurs were under great pressure as they had to shake off a gut-wrenching loss that stopped them from winning their 5th NBA title. San Antonio have never lost in the finals, but they’ve never faced a situation quite like this.
　　They won a Game 7 for the 2005 championship, but that victory over Detroit Pistons 4 was at home. However, Gregg Popovich’s side are confident of becoming just the fourth club to win a Game 7 of the NBA Finals on the road.
　　"We know what we have to do. We know the opportunity we let slip through our fingers. And we’re not going to hang our head and dwell 5 on that. Tomorrow when that ball goes up, we’ll all be ready." Tim Duncan, San Antonio Spurs Forward said.
　　"The experience of Game 7 in The Finals, it’s a great memory. I think we should be happy about that opportunity to try to make history. It’s a great challenge. We know we can beat them here. We just have to do it again." Tony Parker, San Antonio Spurs Guard said.
　　"I said last year it was the hardest thing I’ve ever done, winning my first. Last year don’t even come close to what we’ve gone through in this postseason and in these Finals. So I’ll be there tomorrow night. I’m going to give it my all. I’m going to leave everything on the floor. Whatever happens happens. I’ll be satisfied with that." Lebron James, Miami Heat Forward said.
