It seems the San Antonio Spurs are taking every step possible to make sure the air conditioning fiasco that happened during Game 1 of the NBA Finals at AT&T Center never happens again.

According to Fox Sports, 19,000 fans were in attendance when the air conditioning failed on June 5 and the hot temperature caused LeBron James to cramp up.
