Haslem’s Halftime Speech
Apparently, according to Dwyane Wade after the game, Udonis Haslem rallied the Heat with a halftime speech. As is expected with this Heat team, we’ll never know what was said, but it probably isn’t suited for children.
Erik Spoelstra on Haslem's halftime tirade: "It was absolutely awesome. That's what leaders do."

What happened at halftime for Heat? Goran Dragic: "U.D. gave a speech."

Dragic's interpretation of Haslem's speech: "Come on, guys, this is embarrassing." I feel like that's not verbatim.

Haslem: "I can be harsh, but it's a harsh reality."

Haslem: "It just kinda erupts and whatever comes out comes out."

Haslem says "about 75%" of his words were profanity. Threw some water bottles.

Wade said in a post-game interview with Fox Sports Florida that Haslem’s speech was full of expletives. “Bleep bleep bleep bleep bloop.”
It’s one of those moments that can turn a game, and turn a season.
