HEAT Keep Up Winning Ways, Take Down Warriors 116-109

Hey, look, another dub.

Thanks to some strong defense and six double-figure scorers, the HEAT defeated the Warriors 116-109 Thursday night at AmericanAirlines Arena.

Let’s get right into it, shall we?

1. Jimmy Does It Again

Another game, another big third quarter for Jimmy Butler.

After a pretty good first half, Butler kicked it into high gear in the third with 12 points, two assists and two steals to keep Golden State at bay.

Naturally, aggressive takes to the rack in transition were part of the equation.

As the game progressed, Butler set up his guys very well down the stretch and played hard-nosed defense as usual.
