Erik Spoelstra "frustrated" by Miami Heat loss

Erik Spoelstra has admitted that the Miami Heat are "frustrated" after throwing away a 19-point lead in their defeat to the Chicago Bulls.

Last season's beaten NBA finalists appeared to be heading for a comfortable win at half time, but Pau Gasol led the comeback to set up an 89-78 win for the Bulls, which keeps Miami outside the playoff places.

The coach told ESPN: "We're all frustrated. We're all embarrassed when you're in those situations and you can't stop an avalanche like that."

The Heat are in action again tomorrow when they host the Toronto Raptors.
