Total defeat! Spoelstra: Don’t focus on the preseason win-loss record, only focus on the sustained performance of the ideal style of play

In the NBA preseason, the Heat lost to the Grizzlies 125-141 at home. After the game, Spoelstra was interviewed.

The Heat suffered a 6-game losing streak in the preseason and failed to win a game. Spoelstra said: "We will not focus on the win-loss record in the preseason, but will focus on sustained performances that are in line with our ideal style of play."

Heat reporter Ira Winderm An said that this was one of the only two preseason losses in the Heat's 38 seasons - the other was 0 wins and 7 losses in 2007, and that season the team ended the regular season with a dismal record of 15 wins and 67 losses.
