Miami Heat forward LeBron James has insisted that he is not taking his side's spot in the NBA playoffs for granted.
Erik Spoelstra's team are currently second in the Eastern Conference, while the Indiana Pacers are top.
"This is more than a two-team race," NBA.com quotes the 29-year-old as saying. "There are a lot of good teams in the Eastern Conference.
"It's been a slow start for us as a whole, but there are so many good teams, you can't just count on us and one other team. I respect every team we go against."
The Toronto Raptors are currently third in the standings.
