If there was one bright side to the loss to the Pistons, it was the Heat star in Herro who scored a whopping 40 points while making 10 shots from deep, along with eight assists, five rebounds, and four steals. While some may say his performance went to waste, he does not have an inch of doubt about his head coach, as shared after the game.

Spoelstra was assessed a technical foul, and Pistons guard Malik Beasley sank the ensuing free throw, giving Detroit a late lead the club would not relinquish. After the game, Spoelstra took accountability for the mistake that led to Detroit's victory.

What's surprising is the fact that it was not a player who cost the Heat this matchup. Instead, it was a grave mistake by head coach Erik Spoelstra in the dying seconds of the game.
