Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra on the blowout loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves compared to how they played them on Saturday night: “We showed less of a spirit in this one. The one on Saturday we had a spirit to fight all the way to the end. That’s what is most disappointing to me as a head coach. The last six minutes, it just felt like we let it go.”

“At that point we weren’t going to win the game. When they knocked down those threes, once Randle hit that one, we were 16 of 48 or something like that in the paint at some point and then DiVincenzo hit two more threes, but still, what you have is your spirit, you just keep on fighting, not just let it go there at the end.”
