QUOTABLE: Heat coach Erik Spoelstra after Sunday's loss to the Indiana Pacers: “You want to end up playing games of meaning, but when you say they are games of meaning, that also means they are games of consequences. That's the whole point of this right now in both conferences. There's going to be wild swings of emotion.”
