Following the Miami Heat’s first-round playoff loss to the Boston Celtics, all eyes are set on their offseason plans this summer. Early on, reports have suggested the team could trade franchise player Jimmy Butler<\/a>. This is due to his reported contract aspirations<\/a> and injury that kept him out of the playoffs.
