Post game:
The Heat fell 118-104 to the short-handed Golden State Warriors, suffering their second straight loss and the fourth in their past seven games — suddenly, Miami’s grip on the top spot in the Eastern Conference is tenuous at best.
Tempers flared on the Miami bench in the second half, when Golden State started the third quarter on a 19-0 run. During a timeout amid that Warriors’ flurry, Butler and Spoelstra had things to say to each other. Then Butler and Haslem exchanged words, both eventually needing to be held back by teammates.
What happened with:
After the game, it took Miami about 35 minutes to emerge from the locker room for postgame interviews, roughly three times as long as usual.
Heat guard Kyle Lowry chalked the incident up to passionate players who are frustrated with losing. Wednesday’s loss cut the Heat’s lead in the Eastern Conference race to 1½ games over Milwaukee and Boston.
Trade:
“Listen, our guys really want to win basketball games and we have guys that work extremely hard,” Lowry said. “The passion comes out. The fire and the emotions come out sometimes. But like I said, to us it’s nothing. We conversated and had a conversation and we continue to build.”
The Warriors — who were without Stephen Curry, Andre Iguodala, Draymond Green, Otto Porter Jr. and Klay Thompson — surged ahead in the second half and opened the third on a 19-0 run to claim the 14-point win. Jordan Poole led Golden State with 30 points, and both Jonathan Kuminga and Andrew Wiggins added 22 points.
Wife:
Rumor has it, Jimmy Butler and Kaitlin Nowak have been dating since 2019. Kaitlin Nowak not open about her relationship with the media, and they don’t even follow each other on social media platforms.
Lowry led Miami with 26 points and nine assists, and Bam Adebayo added 25 points and nine rebounds. Butler put up 20 points while shooting 7-of-15 from the field. The Heat have now lost two straight, but still hold a 1.5 game lead in the Eastern Conference.
