Kyle Kuzma is not going full Draymond Green and saying that the Miami Heat will reach the NBA Finals, but if they do, he is excited to see one specific matchup.
Nope, it’s not Jimmy Butler versus Stephen Curry. It’s not even Udonis Haslem versus Green. Instead, he can’t imagine how the series will go with Erik Spoelstra and Steve Kerr trying to outwit each other.
Man Kerr vs Spo would be a crazy NBA finals chess match🍿♟

Kyle Kuzma has every reason to be excited about that potential NBA Finals match-up. The Warriors and Heat are both storied franchises, and their coaches have championship experiences. They know what it takes to win at the highest level, so their showdown could be decided on which team executes their game plan better.
For now, however, Erik Spoelstra and the Heat cannot think too much about Steve Kerr and the Warriors. They still have a Game 7 to play at home on Sunday against the Boston Celtics, and they have to win that contest first before anything else.
As the Heat have learned so far, the Celtics are no easy opponents. They have two stars leading the way in Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, and they are well-supported with Marcus Smart and Robert Williams anchoring their defense.
It will be a tough battle for the Heat, and while they would love to set a date with the Warriors in the NBA Finals, they have to clear their minds of that thought for now.
