The Miami Heat are off to a 7-3 record through 10 games in this current and young NBA season. Though many had the Milwaukee Bucks and the Brooklyn Nets firmly ahead of the pack in the conference to start the year, the Miami Heat have, since, begun to make everyone think about those predictions a bit.

Though still very early in the year though, to that point and the grand point of this whole thing, you take those things as they come and on a game to game basis.

Speaking of a game to game basis though, Jimmy Butler has continued to lead the Miami Heat this season.

Though they have accrued new talent and watched some of their other great pieces further develop coming into this year, the lead dog is still Jimmy G. Buckets. That’s from a mental perspective, a team leader perspective, and one last perspective of mention.

The “G” stands for gets and that’s also just what he’s been doing for the Miami Heat. For their sakes, his own, and the right minds of Miami Heat Faithful everywhere, he needs to keep it up.
