"We want to get back out there, but we have to have a better version of ourselves in terms of mentality, passion, connectivity. All that stuff that's put us in position to win games this year.

We're trying to figure it out."
"On the heels of back-to-back 28- and 24-point losses, the Miami Heat have hit their lowest point of the season to date. It marked the ninth time in franchise history with two consecutive games resulted in 24-plus-point losses. The two defeats were at the hands of the Minnesota Timberwolves, one of the best teams in the West, and the Indiana Pacers, the worst team in the East."
The Miami Heat suffered consecutive 28- and 24-point losses, marking the ninth time in franchise history with back-to-back 24-plus-point defeats. Those losses came to the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Indiana Pacers. Head coach Erik Spoelstra emphasized the need for improved mentality, passion and connectivity and noted league-wide struggles with consistency. Despite an overall easier remaining strength of schedule, the Heat face a difficult upcoming four-game stretch beginning with the reigning-champion Thunder and including Phoenix, Boston and another meeting with Oklahoma City. Miami is 7-15 against teams at or above .500 and 13-3 versus teams below .500.
