Butler won’t allow the Heat to surrender in this series. But it’s hard to fathom how Miami can get to four victories without Butler giving four super-human performances. When he plays like an all-star instead of a Hall of Famer, the Heat seems doomed to lose, almost without fail.
He’s averaging 29.8 points, 13.1 points and 10.5 assists. The Nuggets own an 8-1 record when Jokic registers a triple-double.Back in the day, the Detroit Pistons created a set of defensive rules designed to slow Michael Jordan. But there are no Joker Rules. No matter how much a coach as savvy as Spoelstra studies the videotape, it’s difficult to devise a solid scouting report on Jokic because of his “ability to create something off script.
While three losses provide a small sample size, it suggests maybe the best way to thwart Denver might be to stand back and allow Jokic to score. His scoring average balloons to 42.0 points in defeat.
