LeBron James doing yoga

LeBron James knew he had to do more than just get his body right between Games 1 and 2 of the NBA Finals.

His mind needed a little work as well.

So that's why, without anyone else with him - no security, no friends, nobody, and that almost never happens - James quietly showed up at a theater a couple miles from where the Miami Heat were staying for a 5:40 p.m. showing Saturday of ''Maleficent.'' And it's also why he and his regular massage therapist joined two strangers for a yoga class at 8 a.m. Sunday, where he focused on his breathing.

''I needed to get everything right,'' James said.
