Erik Spoelstra Has Some Choice Words For Those Who Think Miami Heat Have Lost Control Of Series Against Celtics
Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra rarely uses profanity when answering questions during interviews.
But he couldn't help himself when asked about the many analysts who are picking the Boston Celtics to win the series. No team has ever rallied from 3-0 deficit but the Celtics can move one step closer with a victory tonight in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals.
"We don't give a shit," Spoelstra said. "We're trying to compete. This is a great opportunity and our guys love these kind of challenges, love to compete, love the playoffs, love playing in an environment like this. This is what it's about. It's not about getting ahead of it. You want to be present for the competitive nature of what we can expect tonight. That's how our guys are wired."
