QUOTABLE

Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra their win over the Milwaukee Bucks: "I thought this was one of our more impressive wins of the season. Going into it, you want to make sure you have your emotional mental battery recharged but it's quite natural for there to be a little bit of something where you don't have quite the juice and what we talked about in our meeting and walkthroughs, we needed to have a couple people step up."

"Maybe some x-factors bring something different. Bam, what he did the other night, was so inspiring, it raised the level of everybody on our team and sometimes you need to inspire the inspirer. Motivate the motivator, and that's what Pelle [Larsson] and [Kasparas Jakucionis] did tonight."
