Miami Heat Can Bounce Back With A Statement Against Warriors

Led by the guy that, very well, might be the MVP of the league when it’s all said and done in Stephen Curry, the Golden State Warriors are a tough test for anyone.

While Klay Thompson is set to come back any day now, a home game in January per reports and also immediately back into the starting lineup, he won’t be there on Tuesday for this Warriors team.

That doesn’t mean that they still don’t have plenty to contend with.

With a healthy mix of springy wing guys, size, defensive toughness, and of course the long-ranged shooting from Steph Curry among others, this Golden State team will still be a ton for the Miami Heat to deal with.

Their league-leading record says as much. As for the Heat, look for a big performance from their best player, Jimmy Butler.

While the facts that he’s as gritty, determined, and inspiring as they come with a chip the size of his home state of Texas on his shoulder are enough, there is something else.

Well, also other than the fact that a guy like him loves the opportunity to relish in his underdog mentality, such as this scenario that sees his undermanned team facing off against the NBA darling Warriors.
