It's amazing to see Jimmy Butler play at such a high level and really lead his team to the finals. If only the Bulls had a player like him.... yeah wolves fans and sixers fans all say that too. honestly though feel like he's even taken another step in his game ever since he got to miami. the media loves to call it "culture" but they do seem to be above a lot teams in terms of coaching and developing players. idk if its the cocaine or weather, but something definitely helps their player development. i mean a good chunk of their rotation guys this postseason were undrafted. Pat Riley and Eric Spolstra doing good work

I agree but I also don't. Jimmy always had that dog in him. With the Bulls he lost faith in the front office, they didn't do enough to help him which is 100% true. What could have been.... Wolves, he felt like Wiggins and KAT were not as into it as he was, which shows with where their careers have gone. He didn't think they had the hustle. Philly never had true faith in him, they were so set on "trusting the process" that they were too quick to plug and play stars to mesh with Embid and, at the time, Ben Simmons. Spolestra is easily the best and most underrated coach in the NBA. He gets a knock on him because he had the big 3 when he first started coaching but look what he has been able to accomplish since then. You have to give a ton of credit to Riley because he found the best role players to put around his "big 3" of Butler, Herro and Bam. THose 3 also have very different games so it never meshed with Jimmy's game or anyone elses. They put themselves in a position to have success and let Jimmy be Jimmy.

Spo is great, but he isn't easily the best coach. I'll take Pop. If he wins a title with this team, I may change my mind.

Pop may be the GOAT. BUT at this time and moment, in the last few NBA seasons, Spo has been the best coach in the NBA. You can argue Kerr or Pop but Spo has done a lot with very little in the last few seasons, he deserves the credit

Honestly I didn't know Spo was STILL the Heat coach after all these years.
I was one of those people that assumed that big3 heat team would have won a few rings with any coach. He was young and had no reputation at the time.
But he's still the coach after a decade and looking for another ring with a totally different team

If the Celtics can push it to 7, the Heat will likely be down to three players available. 🤪
