QUOTABLE

Heat coach Erik Spoelstra on the loss to Indiana Pacers: “They were able to control the big muscle areas of the game. Attacking is in the paint, whether it was drives, cuts, post-ups, offensive rebounds that set the tenor of the game. We made a great comeback there, you know, with shot-making, but at that point, you know, if you’ve gotten so many layups and paint attacks, you know, then the three-ball seems a lot easier.”
