Seriously though, it's an uphill battle for the Phoenix Suns to win this game. It helps that one of their weapons is unexpectedly out tonight.
Pregame quotes:
Hornacek:
- "You would think so [that the team would be amped to play Heat], but this morning it didn't necessarily seem like it. It seemed like another game."
- "We're just going to play it pretty much straight and if LeBron gets his numbers then he gets them."
- "As long as we can neutralize some of the other players that go out there and not let them have big games we feel we have a chance."
Miami head coach Erik Spoelstra:
- (on what challenges the Suns present to the Heat) "The speed. The quickness. The tempo at which they play. Dragic really pushes it. They push it at every opportunity."
