Heat coach Erik Spoelstra on no movement at trade deadline: “There was a lot of clarity this morning. It's the same group. This has basically been an organizational philosophy since Pat [Riley] got here. You see it through. Each team has a lifespan to it and we have not seen this one through. And we feel like we have a great opportunity moving forward in these next 27 games and then on into the playoffs.”
