Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra after win over Chicago Bulls: "On the second night, we brought a disposition. You could see the activity, the intent defensively. We have great respect for Chicago, how quickly they can put points on the board. That kind of set the tone for the game and then the second half, it was just back-and-forth. We never were able to get the lead, seems like, to 15. Every time we got it to double digits, they would chip away at it, but, considering everything, it was a heck of a win."
