Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra on the All-Star break: "It's good for everybody just to kind of get away, rest your minds, get ready for the final push. It is a lot of fun, you know, these last couple months. I want our guys to enjoy it. There's something to play for. We have a great group. We're getting healthy at the right time. We know what all the narratives are about us, we don't care. This is going to be a lot of fun."
