Heat coach Erik Spoelstra on Monday's win against the Brooklyn Nets: “I think this is good for us. This is what I wanted, to see if we could win some games with different solutions when we weren’t necessarily making shots, where it potentially could be a little bit ugly, and then you just figure out how to win at the end.”
