Miami Heat guard Jimmy Butler warned the Denver Nuggets on Saturday that they should expect to see a much more aggressive performance from his team in Game Two of the NBA Finals.

Having crashed to defeat to Denver in Game One earlier in the week, Butler said that by being more aggressive in putting pressuer on the rim, that would "make everyone's job a lot easier."
