LeBron James said he was upset about the hard fouls of the Chicago Bulls last night ending Miami Heat's winning streak.

James passed the comments to reporters that were waiting around his locker in Chicago, citing two specific plays he thought merited flagrant fouls, one involving Kirk Hinrich in the first quarter and another by Taj Gibson late in the fourth.

"I'm not sitting here crying about anything," James said. "I play the game at a high level, I play with a lot of aggression, I understand that some of the plays are on the borderline of a basketball play or not. But sometimes, you know, I don't know ... it's frustrating."

The winning streak of Miami Bull's was the second-longest in NBA history, ending six games shy of matching the 33-game run set by the 1971-72 Los Angeles Lakers.

"First of all, Kirk Hinrich in the first quarter basically grabbed me with two hands and brought me to the ground," James said. "The last one, Taj Gibson was able to collar me around my shoulder and bring me to the ground. Those are not defensive ... those are not basketball plays.

"It's been happening all year, and I've been able to keep my cool and try to tell [coach Erik Spoelstra], 'Let's not worry about it too much,"' James said. "But it is getting to me a little bit because every time I try to defend myself, I got to face the consequences of a flagrant for me or a technical foul, whatever the case may be. It's tough. It's tough. It's very tough, and I'm not sitting here crying about anything because I play the game at a high level."
