Jimmy Butler was angered by the Miami Heat’s loss to the Denver Nuggets in Game 3 of the NBA Finals; player wants more energy
Jimmy Butler left angry with the defeat of the miami heat for the denver nuggets in game 3 of the final of the NBA. The two teams faced each other at the Kaseya Center last Wednesday night, the 7th, and the current western champion won. With triple-double Jokic It is Murraythe visitors managed a victory of 109 to 94. The home team’s performance was not the best and left their main player extremely irritated.
At a press conference shortly after Game 3, Butler vented about the Heat’s loss and the team’s loss of energy in the third quarter. Until the first half of the match, the score had a slight advantage of five points for the Nuggets. However, in the third half, Miami saw that advantage increase to 14 points and culminated in a collective fall for the home team. So Jimmy sent a message to his teammates.
“I don’t know. I can’t answer that. Maybe we’re home, we think we’ve done something. I don’t know. It simply cannot happen. Will not happen again. It starts with myself. I have to block on the defensive end. Gotta go up and get the loose balls. I think if I start playing and doing this, everyone else will have to follow suit.“, he stated.
Still according to Butler, the Heat will need to find their best version for the remainder of the NBA Finals and this evolution is through intensity. Jimmy wants more energy and sees the mistakes made in Game 3 as mistakes that can be fixed. He also analyzed the match as a whole and assured that something better could have happened at the Kaseya Center if the team had avoided some mistakes.
“I feel like we need to go out with more energy and effort, and that’s fixable. That depends on us as a group. None alone can fix this. So go out, dive into the ground, pick up loose balls, grab defensive rebounds and maybe, just maybe, it would have been a different game.“, completed the ace who scored 28 points in the match. Heat and Nuggets face each other again this Friday, 9, at 9:30 pm (Brasília time).
