Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra spoke about how the emotions of the team are that they are “disappointed” and “frustrated” with their performances. However, Spoelstra still has a half-full-glass approach and is confident they will turn around their season.

Dante Exum had eight of Dallas' final ten points in the half, but two straight buckets by Tyler Herro, who had 19 points in the first half, gave the Heat a 56-55 edge at halftime. The Mavs finally got some three-pointers to drop, but they were turning it over far too often.
