With the Heat facing elimination, Game 5 was bound to be a physical contest with Butler and company not giving up an inch to the star-studded Lakers.
It remains to be seen whether this physical play will favor the Heat against a Lakers squad that seems to be determined to close out the series while wearing their Kobe Bryant-inspired jerseys.
