The question mark goes inside the quotes. Just like a full stop or a comma. It looks odd, but still. (In any case, a full stop, followed by closing quotes and a question mark is wrong.) It seems obvious to place the question mark outside the quotes.
As for the singular/plural issue, I think the fact that a team is a singular subject makes it possible to say "The Heat is coached by Pat Riley." The underlying notion is singular, "a team". You can't say "The police is here." because "the police" does not refer to a singular entity. But you can say, "The Police is here," when referring to the band The Police (at least, I think you can). Again, underlying notion is that of a single entity, "a band".
