Jimmy Butler It is expected to start to Miami Friday when he hosts Denver NagszAnd it is a game that will be its first since the Hit team confirmed that he wants to trade and that they are trying to meet this request, according to a report from Chris Heinz.
Batler was suspended by the Heet team in its last seven games, due to the behavior he considered harmful to the team. Miami went 3-4 in those competitions.
When the suspension was issued, it was not clear whether or not Patler would play with Miami again. But with no reciprocal deal – it is clear that there is no commercial deal in the foreseeable future – the Heat Patler team did not include in a report of his injury during the match with Nags.
In short, if it is not present in that list, this means that the Hit team expects to play Bater.

Batrler was not with the team on a six -game wild trip to Sacramento, Golden Stepet, Utta, Portland, then Los Angeles for matches against Kleippers and Lexers. The Heat team did not train on Thursday and they were planning to roam Friday afternoon before the Denver match.
Bater is expected to meet with some team officials on Thursday and Friday. It is possible that he will also meet with coach Eric Spacestra, due to the comments made by Bitler at his last session with journalists after losing to Indiana on January 2. He expressed his frustration with his role and said that he lost his “joy” on the field. In Miami.
“What I want to see is happening? I want to show me to restore my happiness from playing basketball, wherever that is – we will discover that here very soon.” “I want to restore my happiness. I am happy here, outside the field, but I want to return to a dominant place. I want to play and want to help this team win. At the moment, I do not do that. Who – who.”
The relationship between Bater and Hit – Hadith Point weeks ago – It was not worse than ever. Hit lost to Indiana 128-115 On January 2, Bater scored exactly nine points and played exactly zero in the fourth quarter of the second consecutive match.
The next day, the Heet team issued the comment and reflected the path from a statement made by the team leader Bat Riley in December, pledged not to circulate Bater. The team has participated in trade talks since then.
But Bater trading is complicated, with new rules in the collective negotiation agreement that sets more problems that the teams have to address when obtaining large contracts – and it earns approximately $ 49 million this season, with an option to earn $ 52 million next season.
He is 35 years old and is 17.6 points this season. On the one hand, this is its lowest rate since its third season in the American Professional League more than a decade ago. On the other hand, it achieves the best 55% in his career this season.
Bater was the best player in the Hit team who reached the American Professional League Finals. He was eligible for a two -year extension of $ 113 million, starting last summer. The relationship between Bater and Hit was strained when this deal was not presented to it.
