MIAMI -- Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler vowed to set a better tone for his team in the wake of Wednesday's 109-94 loss to the Denver Nuggets in Game 3 of the NBA Finals, acknowledging that the Heat, playing in their first Finals game in front of a home crowd in nine years, needed to come out with more energy and effort, especially after getting out-rebounded by the Nuggets, 58-33.
The Heat now trail the series, 2-1.
"I don't know," Butler said, when asked why the energy is lacking.
