Heat forward Trevor Ariza on the remainder of the season: “We have to focus on these last 10 and play ‘em like our playoff lives depended on ‘em, because they do. The seeding is important. So whatever we do, we have to do it knowing that we can be in the play-in situation or we can be seeded and set and ready to go.”
