How long is half-time in the NBA Finals? Duration and more explored

With the intensity of Game 4 of the NBA Finals reaching fever-pitch during the first two quarters, one would think about how long the half-time break is in the NBA Finals. As the Miami Heat and the Denver Nuggets battle it out, let's take a look at the details of the most-anticipated series in the postseason.

Similar to any half-time breaks in the regular season and the postseason, the NBA Finals also give a 15-minute break after the first two quarters. Both teams get a chance to regroup and rest during the 15-minute break.

Additionally, fans get a chance to grab refreshments and watch a special performance during half-time.

Last year, the famed dance group Jabbawockeez performed in front of the fans for the Golden State Warriors. The performers vary depending on the city that makes it to the Finals. Unlike the All-Star Game or the NFL's Super Bowl half-time show, the NBA Finals don't host a grand show as they only focus on the game.

Jalen Rose shared what the Heat needed to do against the Nuggets in Game 4

The Heat lost a crucial game against the Nuggets in Game 4 after Aaron Gordon had an incredible outing where he scored 27 points, seven rebounds, and six assists. Prior to the start of the game, former NBA player Jalen Rose shared what he thought Miami should do against Denver's pick-and-roll offense.

"I think what they need to do tonight against the pick and roll for [Nikola] Jokic and Jamal Murray is play smaller, have four shooters around Bam and just switch. That's what they have to do." Rose said.

Rose added,

"Because that pick and roll last game, whether Murray was handling it, if you double him, guess what he doing? He dropping it back to the Joker, four on three and either score down the lane or drop it off a shooter or somebody in the dunk spot."

The Heat's defense was effective in Game 4 and it slowed down the Nuggets' two stars, Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray. However, they weren't able to stop Gordon's scoring outburst. Due to his size advantage, the 6-foot-8 highflyer hunted mismatches against Max Strus and Gabe Vincent in the low post.

Following their Game 4 win, the Nuggets now have a 3-1 advantage as they go back to Denver. The Heat, on the other hand, will have to try their best to overcome the doubters once again.

Bam Adebayo ended the game with 20 points and 11 rebounds, while Jimmy Butler had 25 points, seven rebounds, and seven assists on the night.
