Brooklyn made sure they'd play at least one more game in Miami after winning Game 3 on Saturday, 104-90. For Nets veteran Paul Pierce, who acknowledged his respect for the Heat, the rout on Saturday proves the two-time defending champions aren't invincible.
"You've got to have that type of mental ego against a juggernaut," Pierce told the Associated Press. "You go against the best, a lot of series are won on fear factor, like, or non-belief. When you have that non-belief, then you have no chance.
"What I try to do in this locker room, or with my teammates, is just try to give them belief that we can beat this team. They're not unbeatable."
Brooklyn dropped the first two games of their postseason series against Miami after sweeping them during the regular season. Game 3's win gave the Nets a chance to even the series on Monday, and it proved they could still beat the Heat.
"We just had a little success against them during the regular season. We played them well and we feel like we match up well with them," Nets guard Deron Williams said. "And if we're on top of our game, we're playing defense the way we're capable of playing, like we did the last game, we put ourselves in a good position to win."
The loss was Miami's first of the postseason.
"The defeat was complete," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. "It was both sides of the basketball. It was like trying to plug in holes in a leaking dam. There was so many things that were not in our favor really on both ends of the court."
