The Miami Heat spent their evening crying after a loss to the Chicago Bulls. After the game, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra made mention that some of his players were crying in the locker room after the game. After much was made over the comment, Spoelstra came out and said that his comments were twisted by the media.
Chris Bosh also had something to say following the Heat’s fifth consecutive loss to the Portland Trailblazers. Bosh said that he felt that he wasn’t being used properly following the current string of losses. He said that he needs to be getting the ball in the post, rather than being forced to take mid-range jumpers.
Personally, I think this was so predictable. It was inevitable that one of the “Big Three” would be unhappy with the number of touches they were getting. And as far as the crying goes, Spoelstra said that it isn’t a matter of desire to win, its a matter of working harder. Well isn’t that obvious. Anybody can want to win, but very few are willing to put in the time and effort to ensure victory. That’s what has made Kobe Bryant so successful. That’s what made Michael Jordan so successful. That’s what led to Kevin Durant being the youngest player to win a scoring title.
