“If Denver wants to tip this thing off at the top of Everest, we’ll do that,” the longtime Heat coach said of the much-discussed altitude that has caused problems for the Nuggets' opponents throughout the playoffs.
“They’ve also got to come back to Miami. If you want to make it about that, we’ll turn off the air conditioning, and they’ve got to play in 90-degree humidity, sap the s*** out of their legs.
