Jimmy Butler: “I feel like that we put together this roster to win a championship,” he said. “It feels like a championship-caliber team. It does. We have lapses at times. We got a couple more days, games to figure that all out, but when we’re clicking, when we’re guarding, when we’re making shots, when we’re sharing the ball, I think we’re going to be really tough to beat.”

Jimmy Butler, very much in favor of the Heat’s rotation changes.
“It corrects a lot of our spacing. It lets everybody know where the ball has to go and where everybody is supposed to be at on the floor.” pic.twitter.com/YUNN9HHpUd – 11:25 PM

More energetic minutes from Jimmy Butler right away. He’s attacking his man off the dribble, and his drive just led to a PJ Tucker 3 (who has been struggling with his shot). – 7:53 PM

Marc Berman: Taj Gibson, former mate of Jimmy Butler, said of JB-Spoelstra-Haslem bench dustup: “That’s normal when it comes to championship style basketball. You’re going to have little outbreaks. Not everybody’s going to have a cool head all season. That’s just a test of camaraderie.” -via Twitter @NYPost_Berman / March 25, 2022
