The Miami Heat are a team that is always looking to compete for the whole thing. You have to imagine that’s a reason why Jimmy came.
The Miami Heat play for titles and it’s really that simple. That’s what Jimmy Butler is playing for now.
Win A Title
Sometimes, simplicity is the best. The old saying goes KISS or “Keep It Simple… Stupid”.
Jimmy’s last goal for the 2021-22 season should be the ultimate goal that every NBA player, team, and organization has or should have going into every year. That’s to win it all.
He should be looking to win the title next season. That’s his last goal.
By coming so close in his first season with Miami, the Bubble year and then losing early as he did this past season, that presents a very unique situation but also a unique dichotomy of circumstances that could breed something great. He’s seen the bottom, motivating him to get back to a place that he knows that he can take this team, because he did it already and all in just his very first season.
It’s actually not the worst place to be, at all and as stated, truly a pretty remarkable one for perspective’s sake. You can be sure Jimmy Butler is a guy that understands and appreciates good old-fashioned perspective.
You play for trophies and that is no different for Jimmy Butler. The first two goals would go a long way towards helping to accomplish the third one though.
That, one can be sure of. If he can accomplish the first two, with just a little help from his front office this offseason and the rest of that team that they assemble during next regular season, the third goal will be a reality.
At the very least, he’ll have a strong chance to make it one.
