Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler refuses to shy from his confidence. 

He always thinks the Heat are going to win. After Thursday's loss to the Boston Celtics in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference finals, Butler once again said he is confident his team can bounce back. 

The Heat have lost two straight in the series. 

:We're always going to stay positive knowing that we can and will win this series," Butler said. "We'll just have to close it out at home."

It was the latest in the long list of Butler's guaranteed victories. The Heat would be better off winning Saturday because a loss means a Game 7 in Boston. 

"Because the last two games are not who we are," Butler said of why he felt the Heat will recover. "It just happened to be that way and we stopped playing defense halfway because we didn't make shots that we want to make. But that's easy to correct. We just got to come harder from the jump. Like I always say, it's going to be all smiles. We're going to keep it very, very consistent knowing that we are going to win the next game."
