Nick Nurse

Nick Nurse, head coach of the 76ers, talked about what it will be like to face the Heat and about Joel Embiid: "Of course we've had some great battles with them (Heat). We always expect that against them. The mentality is that we want to keep playing well and we have to give it our all. That's more or less how we see the last month of the year. We're committed to getting our guys to play the way we need them to play and do everything they can to win. I think we have a good mentality and we'll take that into Wednesday. He's on the court, as you know, but we don't have a program yet. I think there's a good chance he'll be back before the playoffs. We did a non-contact practice and he was able to do that. We've always said that we hope he'll play again. He's on the court - I don't want to say every day - but almost every day now he's on the court doing basketball-related things. All the check-ups have been positive. He's more or less in the recovery phase."

Jimmy Butler!

Jimmy Butler also spoke about what it will be like to face the 76ers in the play-in: "That's a question I don't have the answer to. I wish we played better at home. I don't know. Whenever we travel, our backs are against the wall. I think we get out of our comfort zone and start making things happen, so I'm glad we're on the road."

Erik Spoelstra

Before the final games Erik Spoelstra, the Heat's head coach, spoke about what he wanted from the team and, considering that qualification came, the coach managed to get the best out of his squad: "We're going to focus on the next 48 hours to get ready for another battle. I don't care one bit about what's happening in the standings. I just want our team to play the way it's capable of playing, and that's what we're going to try to do in these last two games".
