Credit: The Associated PressMIAMI — Gone are the days where Miami coach Erik Spoelstra would spend the final few pregame moments wolfing down hot dogs while pulling on his suit jacket and hurrying to the court.

Chicken fingers and coffee have been replaced by green juice and yoga, part of the reason why he's probably more fit at 47 than when he took over the Heat at 37. Spoelstra is happier and healthier — and he's bracing for an intense next few months, with the Heat chasing a playoff spot while he and his wife get ready to become first-time parents.
