Heat’s Jimmy Butler said his team will have to play extra hard against the Knicks in Game 5, but thinks they are “very capable” of closing out the series.
The Heat know what they’ll have to do to win“We’ve always got a shot to win when we’re guarding or just playing together,” Jimmy Butler said. “This is a game of runs for both sides. But if we talk through everything, we’re having fun more than anything, I think it’s going to end well for us.
But the Knicks don’t have Nikola Jokic, with their own star Julius Randle being dominated by Bam Adebayo. Jimmy Butler, scoring on a reverse layup during the Heat’s Game 4 win, says he believes Miami can close out the Knicks in Game 5 at the Garden.He and Adebayo are surrounded by a group that has smothered the Knicks’ isolation-heavy offense, hit clutch shots and has plenty of experience winning.
