QUOTABLE

Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra on Jaime Jaquez Jr. after their second consecutive win over the Brooklyn Nets: "We’re arguably at our best when Jaime plays well. I mean there’s a lot of different guys that can impact but when he’s our downhill guy and making things happen in the paint, we become a more dynamic offensive team.”

“Just really rugged and physical with his attacks and we need that. We don’t want to just play around the three point line."
