Miami Heat: Will Jimmy Butler and the Heat EVER Turn it On THIS SEASON?!

Welcome one and all to the defa show with lby here on the five reasons Sports and we’re brought to you by water cleanup of Florida the rains are here which usually would do a number on your home or office and would usually leave most of us including myself stressed to

The gills however knowing that water cleanup of Florida is there your home and office will be fine and your stress levels can come down all you got to do is call 954579 0356 that’s the number you call water issues fire issues with your home or office with well over 60 years of combined

Experience Michael Robert George their entire team are there for you to not only fix those issues but make them look brand new because they have certified insured licensed contractors on staff 954579 0356 will be your Cure All to keep your home office looking fantastic and your

Stress uh to go away you can also check them out online wcu.com Atwater cleanup on all the socials believe me I worked with them they are fantastic to me the entire process look dealing with service companies can be be fun to say the least and that I’m being very sarcastic the

Communication just getting a hold of them getting them to come out getting them to get the job done getting it to look anything close to okay let alone look brand new water clim Florida beginning to end it’s night and day from any service company I’ve ever worked

With 954579 0356 if you have the Schmutz they have the guts the Miami the Florida Panthers have been gutsy all year lately eh struggling against some of the best teams give up believe vers the Rangers give up B lead versus the Bruins and now find themselves third in the Eastern

Commerce behind those rangers and Bruins the the Miami Heat have been gutsy for 20 plus years not this year this year has been an inj real Affair look the last few years they’ve been in the playoffs where like if they were just healthy and they made finals runs it was

Like if they were just healthy well this year the entire year if they were just healthy they play The Warriors Tuesday night close game until the second half no Jimmy Butler no Duncan Robinson no Tyler herro no Kevin Love No Josh Richardson all guys are supposed to be

In their top eight players not there eventually the Warriors pull away wi by 21 the Miami Heat sitting there in the eighth spot we’re only a game out of the six and within three games of the five of the four right there to get a nice

Seed yes they’ve shown you can move far in the eighth seed but do you really want to be in the playin no you don’t we talked about the Miami Heats recent struggles and what does that mean for them going forward the D.A show lby here on the five reason Sports Network bad

Night for the local teams you had uh the Panthers go down uh we’re not worried about the Panthers AR we I don’t know they playing worse lately it feels like I don’t know if they’re feeling their oats I their defense late look they did with the rangers they had

A lead late and they gave up the lead and then lost like I I you don’t want this to become a theme like we’ve seen the really good teams last few years struggle in the playoffs like you don’t want that to be you you finally got to

This place you don’t want to start fing your roats like and that was the one good thing about them was their defense was strong they were playing good on on goal the goal ending was strong and then they also could score they def like the

Way that game went they got up 2-1 then they allowed it to 22 okay they got up 3-2 then they allowed it to get to 3- three I guess with the penalty and then two minutes later it goes 4-3 with two minutes left in the game at home you

Don’t lose that game was like you don’t lose that game the heat I don’t heat get blown out they didn’t have anybody on the floor again they’re missing Butler they’re missing Kevin Love they’re missing Robinson Richardson it’s just and oh and Robinson wow so they’re all starting fers pretty much and and what’s

Funny is and I give b a lot of credit they were in they had a lead at half that’s what’s weird about the Pelicans game was the same golden states you know they’re very much a fringe team they’re sitting they’re number 10 and and there’s a good chance they get knocked

Out of the playoffs allog together in spite of the fact that Espen would have you believe they’re in first place yeah exactly but um yeah Houston has won nine in a row and is tracking right in there behind him now just one game back for the 10th qualifying position for the

Postseason so that would mean no Steph Curry that they’ll find a way to get golden state in there they’re trying I I mean look they have their whole team and they won by double like ended up being by 21 yeah but I I just I just to me I

Don’t know what the heat I don’t know what I just don’t know what’s going on like by this point Butler L was playing games he was starting to play good again I was like okay they would have kicked the Warriors ass if they had their team

Last night like they were in it until you could just tell the Warriors had their whole team and he were missing five dudes like at some point like you’re getting beaten by overwhelmed yeah looks like Wilt you get overwhelmed and you you just can’t hang like there

Don’t know what they doing it like Butler literally they elicit it as illness what [ __ ] illness he was out like the night before there’s videos of him like hanging out he was playing the game before and then suddenly just misses the game like there’s 10 games

Left they were they’re only a game out of the six like what to me as long as they’re anywhere from one to six they have a really good shot to do some interesting things in the playoffs you don’t want to be in the playing again

It’s an extra one to two games like you don’t want that yeah it worked last year for whatever the [ __ ] reason but that’s not a look at FAU it’s not a the putting your back against the wall strategy is not an overwhelming successful no usually that team gets thumped that they

Don’t make it to the NBA finals that that was a very improbable run by the Miami Heat last year and um you know like we saw as you said good reference FAU did you not have a feeling that that was not happening again in spite of the

Rhetoric that was going on before the season that whoa look at this man they brought everybody back except for like one or two guys no they’re resting on their law which was great they did but they weren’t as good and uh they got into a different conference they they

Got throttled a little bit there yep um even the games they won towards the end of the regular season they they were very suspect in all of these games it wasn’t like they were a dominating Force which they were at times when they were rattling off to 21 wins in a row last

Year that that was great but like with um I mean uh was there not a lot of optimism about the University of Miami coming into the season they had a disastrous catastrophic season where people were starting to think maybe Jim Lena doesn’t have any yeah yeah I mean

It was bad unbelievable yeah it was bad yeah I I think we have a lot of faith that that the heat will rally somehow uh but they don’t they don’t appear to have a championship team they didn’t last year and and ultimately they did not win the championship in spite of the fact

That that we would have like to see them carry off Del Larry O’Brien they they they weren’t nearly as good as the Denver Nuggets no the Nuggets they weren’t on the same level but my my problem with heat is I don’t know what team they have like I actually if they

Had their entire health team which the rest of the East is finally getting yes I’d put them up with anyone because whenever they’ve had close to their healthy team they played well against everyone my problem is they haven’t had herob bam and Butler haven’t played together the entire year and it feels

Like Hero’s a lot of people are speculating that Hero’s actually out for the year they’re just not saying it okay with what he has a fo whatever body injury they’re doing it like hockey like it didn’t tear an ACL or they don’t give you a body part like he’s only played 30

Something game what does he have that allow him at 25 23 play less than 50 40 games like what the [ __ ] is wrong with him like and that’s the problem is at some point that stuff does catch up with you like it just does and the Jimmy

Butler he’s not the competitive guy that we thought he was did he lose his um you know Drive I don’t know I I really don’t know because the fact that he’s every other one of every like four games he just misses come on like it’s not in

He’s just missing games that you’re in your last 10 games you’re not in a good SP Ka yes but Kawai at least had had major injury issues in his career Butler hasn’t I I I don’t know what Butler’s issue is and you need him to be that sort of driving force Catalyst leader

Like Brunson has been with the Knicks where you’re saying wait a minute if that guy’s going to play his eyeballs out like that even in a losing effort even in a game that appears to be hopelessly lost in the fourth quarter he’s still hustling if you’re going to

Set that kind of heat culture example I mean I I think it’s been said many many times and and written about I’m sure Dave Hein has addressed this uh Jimmy Butler has been anointed uh from the time that he was acquired to to be that guy yes and if he’s going to kind

Of Lolly gang his way through the season it’s like you know what you’re doing shows for years and years and then you go through a period of time where you ask yourself hey am I mailing an in what the [ __ ] am I doing right and you have

To sort of reexamine yourself and say hey I I need to put more effort into this otherwise uh you know it’s going to of become obvious to people that I just don’t give a [ __ ] anymore and I I don’t know that that’s the case with Jimmy

Butler but he would be a difficult guy to read anyway lby yes the one thing that you anticipate with him and where he sort of was philosophically I guess throughout his uh tenure here with the heat he came here because he wanted to be challenged and he wanted to prove

That he could be a guy that could carry a team and then this year his approach does not seem to reflect that kind of determination and sensity right Pat Riley needs to get in this guy’s ear but it seems like they’re a little afraid to ruffle feathers with you cuz that’s the

Thing in years past it actually felt like he did have injuries because he is a physical dude who’s probably under sized for the way he plays so he would miss games but it felt like he was legitimately injured they would name the injury and he would be out then he’d

Come back and play you’re right this year it feels different this year it feels like he’s intermittantly just missing games and and it’s like the it is the kawhai Paul George thing where it’s like why is he out now like what is he not playing now like and it’s the day of the

Game like people are assuming he’s playing and then he magically isn’t playing like so that’s when you’re like okay is he just no it’s weird when you look at the Box SC and you see like all of these guys were out and they’re all hurt no Richardson Robinson Tyler hero

Hero and Butler are the two that I don’t understand the other three are actually her Robinson believe me he wants to be out there he was actually becoming a key coog it’s funny with with just Robinson last night they may have actually won yeah considering he plays really well

With bam and when these guys are out he this year has become like their fourth or fifth best player it’s just you can’t have that many guys injured this late in the year and and play decent teams the Warriors are still decent they have talent like should you uh have printed

On the ticket and you know the desire to be transparent that U you’re buying a ticket tonight to see Golden State play sou Falls yes that’s was really what the team was he would Heist and like all the Jamal Kane I’m like who are these you

May as well be in the dtas my friend like what is happening it’s such a really weird year look they’ve had injuries in the past but again like we were just talking about they were injuries you knew what the injury was the guys would go out the

Guys would come back and the injury was done that’s not been the cases year Tyler Hero has been out for a long time it’s not look it’s not like he tore an ACL tore an Achilles Like It whatever injuries he had usually the kind of injuries you’ll come back and

Play he came back played a little now he’s been out for another two three weeks he’s he’s played less than 40 games as a guy in his early 20s and this is every season and he’s supposed to be a top three player on this team Jimmy

Butler was always a guy that played he miss games here and there but he played now he’s just missing games and we don’t know what it is literally Tuesday night he was set to play people presumed he’d play then he’s out with illness what does that mean he played the games

Before he was out and about supposedly with with on videos on social media the day before now he’s not playing with illness like it’s just weird and they’re a team when they’re fully constituted I would put them up against anyone the Celtics aren’t scary the Celtics just

Blew a 30-point lead the other day the Bucks aren’t scary the Bel the that was to the Hawks a bad Hawks team the Bucks just blew a 19point lead to the Lakers without LeBron like the none no one’s scaring these but at least these teams are healthy and you presume in the

Playoffs they’ll play together the heat we’re under 10 games now and they’re still screwing around with lineups it’s still scoring around with injuries we yes we have seen this team come together in the playoffs we’ve also seen this team two years ago be ravaged by or three I’m sorry three years two years

Ago they were in the finals and Jimmy Butler who was hurt and the whole team was hurt fell short on a three-point shot in game seven against the Celtics last year they pulled it off in game seven against the Celtics and got to the finals so not two three years ago

Following a finals appearance they were injured they were tired and they got swept by the Bucks that’s what this year is starting to feel like not like last year it’s starting to feel like three years ago where they can just never get healthy and again I gave Butler room the

He didn’t give Butler room but I figured okay now he’ll play 10 games left let’s go on a run because whenever he’s played hard they’ve gone on runs this season they’re go on a run they’ll find themselves for sure in a six spot but the magic are attainable I think that’re

You’re within three games there three or four from the Cavs Knicks in that 3 four spot four five games it’s all actually doable maybe you don’t come but you you make it interesting they could get to that five spot that’s a perfect spot you just want to

Avoid like the Bucks and the Celtics in the first round like why make your life harder and you want to avoid the plane for sure you don’t want to play more one to two more games like you’re already hurt you’re already an older team by the way you’ve had injuries all year long

And they’re really not an older team they’re actually pretty young team but you’ve had injuries all year long every guy on your team has missed yic has missed with injury yo hakz Junior has missed with injury like everyone’s missed game Ro missed some games and they just got the fraking guy everyone’s

Missed games decent amount of decent amount of games with injuries you don’t want to play more games so I’m like all right Butler will play the last 10 they’re going to reel off some wins they’ll catch the Pacers they have a really good shot at catching the magic I

Think they play the magic a couple times cool all right get into that Five Spot play a Nicks or a a Cavs in the first round both very winnable series and then you would take on a bucks or a Celtics cool all right fine makes perfect sense and then misses the game

It’s like okay so what is this year and I we don’t know it’s a really weird place for the heat because they’re always hurt hustle guts you know heat culture heat culture look I understand in this day and age guys miss games fine you’re not playing 82 you’re not playing

75 you should play 65 Butler neither Butler nor hero will play 65 and I get bam a lot of credit he’s out there playing his ass off he actually had a lead at half but eventually the Warriors whatever the Warriors are are I know they’re a 10 seed they’re around 500

Under 500 but they had their whole team yesterday like they’re still Allstar level guys at some point they’re still guys that play okay like you’re missing five of your top eight guys they have their whole team that’s what happens they lose by 21 I I don’t know what SPO

I’m sure spoler pulling his hair out because there the talent is there for this team like that’s not they are a better more talented deeper more well-rounded roster than they were last year they are the problem is guys aren’t playing and I’m curious when that’ll happen

We shall see I think we have we’re down to like nine games left going to be interesting uh for the Miami Heat it’s going to be frustrating I hope it’s I hope Butler finally is like all right let’s go for it we haven’t seen that yet and and hero is

Interesting a lot of you a lot of the Heat fans a lot of heat people are are surmising he’s just out for the year and we really don’t know why but he’s out for the year they just won’t say it why like play him or don’t like I don’t know

  1. Why is Spo so fixed in his ways.
    He❤consistently plays the same players and expect to get a different result.
    Why not play Cole instead of the other shooter Mills.

  2. Jimmy is all about Jimmy. As great as he can be sometimes, he’s a terrible leader & this isn’t fair to his teammates. Specially Bam
