Tyler Herro goes for 3 instead of open layup, costs Heat late

CHICAGO -- The Miami Heat were just about down to their last gasp trailing the Chicago Bulls by five in the closing minute.

Tyler Herro opted to pull up for a 3-pointer rather than drive for a wide-open layup. He missed, and the Heat lost to the Bulls 119-111 in a game with major seeding implications.

"I was feeling that shot," Herro said. "It's as simple as that. It's the shot I was feeling. Looking back on it now, obviously, after missing the shot, I should have laid the ball up.
