I can't say they are the first people to cry after getting Luol's Dong but probably the first group of males. The Chicago Bulls moved ahead of the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference Standings today after a one-point win in which Luol Deng put the game on ice after nailing down 3 free-throws to put the Bulls ahead for good.
On a Yahoo.com Article....
According to Heat coach Erik Spoelstra, several Miami players were reduced to tears following the team's 87-86 loss to the Bulls. The defeat marked their third close loss to Chicago this season, and it tops off a frustrating week that started last Sunday with the squad's tough defeat at the hands of the New York Knicks. The Heat now have lost four in a row. After Dwyane Wade's last-second desperation jumper rimmed out, a catatonic Heat team sulked to the locker room. The Heat's season-long clutch struggles were made even more obvious with Sunday's national TV showing while Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau said after the game that Chicago has "guys who can close."
And whether he was trying to relay his team's frustration and obsession with winning, or trying to point out a weakness, Spoelstra dropped a dime on some unnamed players. According to The Associated Press:
And when it was over, Spoelstra said some in the Heat locker room were moved to tears.
"Just to come up short again and again, it hurts," [Chris] Bosh said. "We all want to win. We all want to win very badly." Bosh also told ESPN's Brian Windhorst that while he wasn't among the players who were crying, he was nearly in tears after yet another close loss.
Wade? He took a different, snottier, approach. From the AP:
"The Miami Heat are exactly what everyone wanted, losing games," Wade said. "The world is better now because the Heat is losing." Are the Brohams the only ones that are getting sick and tired of Wade and Lebron's against the world approach. Give it break man. Not Brohamsish at all dudes.
