The Miami Heat might land Kevin Love this offseason, but will they have to clear the air of tension with Jimmy Butler first?

Jimmy Butler was not pleased. He had a response and it went something like this.

“Somebody was telling me that K. Love was like, ‘Oh he does this for show,’” Butler said. “It’s like, ‘Motherf—–, you come do what I do.”

“People don’t understand, I do this s— everyday in the summer. If you know me, and you get up and you work the way that I work, you see that it’s not for show.”

“If it was for show I would have been the one to put it on the internet. I don’t talk about it, I just go do it.”

So, who knows how that situation would work out, because we all know how Butler is if he doesn’t like someone on his team… cough cough… Karl-Anthony Towns. But, that doesn’t mean Love isn’t interested in coming to Miami, as Love has made it clear that he is a huge fan of Bam Adebayo.

Love told Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel that “he’s somebody that I really admire” and that he loves “what he’s about, his story, where he’s come from, and just how great he’s done in this league in a very short period of time.”

As you can see, Love, seemingly, wouldn’t mind coming to Miami and I mean, can you blame him or anyone for wanting to come down to Miami? How would he fit with Miami’s two best players though?
