Spoelstra does not expect the Nets to go down without a fight.

He expects, "something similar to what we saw last night.  We wouldn't expect anything else.  They're a deep, veteran team it's not the first time they've been in this situation.  Both teams know what's at stake and it's great competition."

Miami won 102-96 in Brooklyn.

Game 5 is Wednesday at 7 p.m. at the American Airlines Arena.

If Miami loses, Game 6 would be back in Brooklyn on Friday night.
