NBA star for the Miami Heat, Jimmy Butler was not shaken by the start of the season and even nailed the possibility of taking the title in the current edition
Jimmy Butlerwhich defends the Miami Heat at NBA, was candid about the franchise’s chances of winning the current season. The winger was not intimidated and sent a message to critics, noting that the squad intends to take the trophy home, even with a not very fruitful start to their campaign.
“We’re still going to be champions of the season, so I don’t care what anyone is saying out there. Then they can count us as eliminated. I tell you that we will certainly take the title.”fired Butler in an interview with “The Athletic”. “And I don’t give a damn if we’ve only won two games and lost five so far. For me, for example, we will win the next 75”.
The star added: “I know our campaign is not good, but we are playing for real. And above all, we have time. We need to play with a little more sense of urgency and, beyond that, trust each other. At the end of the day, it’s about playing basketball correctly on both sides of the court. There are a lot of positives in our team as well, so I’m not discouraged.”
In addition to Butler, the coach of the Miami Heat, Erik Spoelstraalso defended a more optimistic view of the scenario: “I see a small trend in our early games because the defense has not been satisfactory. It is quite clear that we can improve a lot. The positive news, however, is that this problem is not space science for us. We can grow and evolve, first of all. And I feel that we are not that far from our ideal for this moment.”
BETTER LATE THAN NEVER
