QUOTABLE

Heat head coach Jamahl Mosley"It wasn't the fourth quarter that got us, it was the second quarter ans the way we started the game. It was those pieces. You lose it at the end, but our process and our spirit wasn't right for this game." ... "You can't you turn it on, you can't turn it off. You can't start a game that way and expect that you're just going to pull it out in the end."
