Spoelstra has traveled about as far an NBA lifer can — from The Dungeon to the first chair on the most scrutinized sideline in recent NBA history. But in many respects, his temperament hasn’t really changed. The office might be cushier and he’s no longer chasing cargo planes in the middle of the night, but he’s still fundamentally the same guy with the same habits.
