The Miami Heat have an intriguing remainder of the season before them. While there are still names out there to be had on the NBA buyout market, the Miami Heat already have several of the necessary pieces that it takes to go all the way but if you’ve been watching this team for the last couple of years, that should be no surprise.
What also isn’t a surprise is the fact that there are those out there that continue to question this team, the leadership, the coaching, and their stars regardless of what we have seen in the last three years or so.
But speaking of what was said there, the last two contests and no matter the competition, show you exactly why you should always trust Jimmy Butler to get this Miami Heat squad where they need to be when all things are equal.
The Miami Heat still have strides to make, internally and externally. But as long as Jimmy Butler’s there, you trust that he will carry them a long way.
And to that notion of all things being equal, you do acknowledge the second-year sweep in the playoffs by the Bucks, however, you also have to acknowledge the circumstances.
There was more time between the two periods of the bubble than there was between those two seasons. The results were what the results were but the surrounding factors matter as well.
Now, back to Jimmy Butler and what he has overwhelmingly been able to do during his Miami Heat tenure, which is will this team to victory by coming to life and being one of the best players, if not the very best on the floor, during money time.
And in the Heat’s last two victories, over the Rockets and the magic, this factor came to life in a very exuberant fashion. Struggling for the most part, not having “Jimmy Butler “ type games, when the Miami Heat needed it the most, winning time, Jimmy Butler did with Jimmy Butler does.
He showed up to get them crucial buckets and that ultimately led them to victory. While, you can continue to expand, explain, pick, and pry, this is the case when it matters the most.
Because no matter the circumstances, Jimmy Butler’s going to come through more often than he isn’t. And these last two wins show exactly that.
