The Miami Heat have done something this postseason that no one thought was possible.
They entered the Eastern Conference playoffs as the eighth seed and have made it to the NBA Finals.
Despite the Heat not having the most talented roster in the league, they play well together.
Every man understands his role and does it to the best of his ability.
That is the sign of a great team.
Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr had high praise for this Heat team.
According to NBACentral, via Draymond Green’s podcast, Kerr said that no one is complaining about their role, “They’re just all about winning.”
Steve Kerr applauds the players on the Miami Heat for accepting their roles
“None of those guys on Miami are sitting there saying, ‘Well I didn’t play’ or ‘Man, they put in so and so.’ They’re just all about winning.”

Miami deploys a rotation of four undrafted players.
Each has played a significant role in the playoffs and continues to play well when called upon.
Kerr knows what it takes to be a championship team.
He has won nine rings combined as a player and coach.
While many of these teams he was a part of had superstar players, the Heat’s style of play is refreshing.
Also, many fans think these comments by Kerr were a subtle message to some of the players on the Warriors.
There were a few Warriors players who were upset with their role this past season.
That could be one of the reasons why they are not still playing.
Winning a championship in the NBA is hard, you need everyone to be bought in.
It is clear the Heat are bought in and now they head home for a crucial Game 3 where they can take the series lead.
