Lots of teams have young cores. They got into the finals because butler played way over his head then lost like he always does. There leading scorers are butler (32) Dragic (35)...

By the time their young core gets good enough butler will be too old...It's about timing
Since when is 32 too old to play in the NBA... Lebron is 35 and just won title

In an unrelated move, the Clippers are impressed with Mike Brown....

These finals losses are getting easier and easier to take. Maybe it's age or maybe it is how they went down.

2011 vs Dallas- I was devastated for quite a while since they choked game 2 away and gave away game 4 or 5 as well. The lockout or the Heat hate at that time didn't help either

2014 vs Spurs- Even though i went into that series expecting another win especially after we stole home court in game 2, the writing was clearly on the wall after the Spurs embarrassed Miami in Miami in games 3 and 4. No way would they lose 2 of 3 including 2 in San Antonio

2020 vs Lakers- Season was already a success so just wanted 2 things from them. Don't get swept and to compete. They didn't get swept and competed in 4 of 6 games. Also watching Jimmy Butler lead Miami to 2 wins with 2 of the best single game performances in NBA finals history was good enough for me. I was over this game by the time the Lakers went up 20 or so late in the 2nd.

Age is the thing...my level of passion and deep feelings about these things is so much less than in my teens and 20s and early 30s.
