Heat’s Jimmy Butler, Tyler Herro, and head coach Erik Spoelstra talk after the brutal loss to the Nets about losing the lead and more.
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro had a 30-point performance Wednesday night against the Brooklyn Nets in another star display.
Still, it wasn’t enough to combat Brooklyn’s comeback victory, and the Heat lost their fourth consecutive game. Herro stressed the need for change, even just five games into the regular season.
“I thought the first three quarters weren’t perfect, but they were pretty good. We were in control and had the lead, but ended up letting it slip again,” Herro said. “We’ll watch the film tomorrow, and we’ll continue to get better. We can’t feel sorry for ourselves at this point in the year; it’s still early, obviously. But at some point, this has to matter to us, you know. We can’t keep losing games and thinking it’s okay.
Miami is now 1-4 after opening up the season with a narrow victory over the Detroit Pistons.
“The past runs really don’t have any meaning in this season,” Herro said. “It’s a new season, and every year’s a new year, and we have to figure out solutions to win games. We can’t feel sorry for ourselves, and no one feels sorry for us. It’s on us and the guys in this locker room.”
The Heat led the league in clutch wins last season, but now they’re on the other end of those last-minute victories. Herro says the team needs to be more consistent and play better throughout the entire game.
