Heat Starring in Episode of 'Lost' With 5th Straight Defeat

Filed under: Heat

CHICAGO -- Give Miami a road map. Give the Heat a compass. If you really want to splurge, how about a GPS?

"We've lost our way right now,'' said Heat coach Erik Spoelstra.

Indeed Miami has. The team is somewhere in the middle of Siberia without a Coleman stone.

Wait a minute. The team is the Heat. Make that in the middle of the Gobi Desert with an empty canteen.

Miami lost its fifth straight game on Saturday night at the United Center, falling 95-91 to a Chicago team that was without center Joakim Noah, who has plantar fasciitis, and forward Tyrus Thomas, serving a one-game suspension. The dry spell also is seven of eight.

Spoelstra added he believes the Heat is lost "temporarily, and we will find our way again.'' But, while Spoelstra did vow not-exactly-spelled-out changes, there's not yet evidence he has been nicknamed "Nostradumus'' by his friends.
