Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra on what went wrong against the Golden State Warriors: "Well you have to credit their defense for sure, it was active, but we're just coming off a few games where we face teams like that. Our decision-making was not great tonight and they made us pay for that, and it wasn't just the turnovers."

"The turnovers definitely hurt, especially at any swing moment, but some of our shot selection too, during moments where the game was starting to go the other way. Combination of that and then it was one of our poorer defensive games in a long time."
