Former NBA player gives credit to Butler and his squad ahead of Heat vs Nuggets series

Miami Heat v Boston Celtics - Game Seven

Experts have chosen their picks on which team will come out on top ahead of the NBA Finals. While most have picked Denver to win the championship over Miami this season, there are those who have highlighted what the Heat are capable of.

Former NBA player Kendrick Perkins gave credit to the recently crowned Eastern Conference champions. He shared that Jokic and co. hasn't seen a team quite like the Heat.

"Denver hasn't seen a team like the Miami Heat. We don't give the Miami Heat enough credit for all the misdirection and multiple actions that they run." Perkins said.

Perk brought up a valid point in the Heat involving Jokic in most of their pick-and-roll plays in the series. The two-time MVP isn't known to be the best defender in his squad and the Heat could exploit that advantage to their favor.

The Heat vs Nuggets Finals showdown will showcase an extremely competitive series. Both teams have continued to compete despite not being favorites to make it to the NBA Finals at the start of the postseason.
