Jimmy Butler is going to have that picture-perfect chance to contend for the next title run as Miami Heat makes a place in the NBA finals.

Since Bam Adebayo took responsibility for his performance for the Game 5 loss, Butler said, “He didn’t let anybody down. We played bad as a whole.”

“But I love the fact that he wants that pressure. He wants all of that on his shoulders. That’s why he’s the heart and soul of this team.”

However, the Heat successfully held the control of Game 6 and took the final step toward the finals with a 125-113 victory.

Comparing Adebayo to a star player, Butler commented, “He’s put himself on the map since he’s come into the league, and he’s huge for us, will continue to be that for us, and he knows how special he has to play in these next four wins.”

Coach Erik Spolestra has agreed that it has been “a great series” and “competitive.”

He further commented, “I mean, in many ways, this was a seven-game series, just how competitive it was. Extremely well-coached and well-put together and we are just honored to be a part of that type of series in the conference finals, and then we get an opportunity for the next stage. Our guys will look forward to it. We’re going to try to enjoy it for a night.”

On the other side of the story shows Coach Brad Stevens to appreciate the Heat. He said, “They’re super physical, super tough, very, very savvy. I think they’re the best team in the East and deserve to be representing the East in the way that they have played.”
