Heat Lose Again, Then Cry About It
Sports Grid - Following their 87-86 loss to the Chicago Bulls, the Miami Heat are upset. So upset, in fact, that a few of them are crying in the locker room.
According to Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra, via ESPN’s Brian Windhorst, “some Heat players are crying in the locker room at the moment.” That tidbit was also confirmed by South Florida Sun-Sentinel beat writer Ira Winderman, who tweeted that Spoelstra said, “There are a couple of guys crying there in the locker room.”
The Miami Heat are going through the roughest patch they have dealt with all season. All of the points people made before the season are playing out and proving to be true. Chris Bosh is soft. LeBron will dominate the game but will come up real small in the clutch. Dwayne Wade, the only clutch player on the team wont demand the ball because he doesnt want to hurt his super best friend LeBrons feelings. The fact that Erik Spoelstra is still the head coach surprises many but if this losing streak continues he might be gone before the Heat have a chance to choke in the playoffs.
As bad as its been on the court for Spoelstra he has been just as bad at the podium. Stating that the Heat could either improve or "collapse" going forward. Collapse isnt the best word a coach should use when talking about his team. Then admitting that his players were crying in the locker room is just to much. I dont know if they really were or this is his crazy way of showing that they care. The Heat can still turn it on and do damage but only if Wade carries them. I predict that they continue to demand attention and fall on their faces and cry while the elite teams take their lunch money and everyone laughs.
