Heat forward Jimmy Butler on the rest of the season: “I can’t speak for everybody. I don’t care,” Butler said of the standings. “I really don’t. I don’t pay attention to it. I don’t be on the World Wide Web like that. So I can’t tell you who is where. I know in our team meeting we talk about it. All we got to do is get there. We get there, us as a team, I’ll handle the rest.”
