Heat forward Caleb Martin on winning Game 2: "I just think it speaks more to the mentality of the group. We've been in these situations many times before. Just staying with it through bad games, through slumps ... A lot of it is a mentality thing. We've always been able to do stuff like that. The approach is there."
