Heat coach Erik Spoelstra: "This group is, you know we mentioned it during the losing streak, that we felt like we were alive. It looked, on the outside, that everybody thought we would be dead and go in our separate ways, but we felt alive by the challenge and the frustration of that. And then what you hope is that you develop a sense of connection, and we developed that during the losing streak, ironically enough. And you need that connection to build that mental toughness. The connection comes first."
