Miami Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra has steadily earned the respect of the NBA world as he is now considered to be one of the best head coaches in the league today.
Despite not playing in the league himself, Spoelstra has a keen eye for the game and is a masterful tactician who has been able to maximize the potential of every Heat roster
The head coach has managed to lead Miami to several NBA Finals appearances, including this past year against the Denver Nuggets.
With the 2023-24 NBA season on the horizon, Spoelstra will be tasked with trying to navigate the top of the Eastern Conference.
One player who is returning to help him in that regard is Kevin Love who ended up being one of the team’s best pickups last season.
Love may not be the player he used to be, but Spoelstra has been impressed with his leadership presence via the team’s official Twitter account.
“He’s always been able to be a connector in locker rooms. He has a superpower in that regard. Leadership is so many things. It’s influence, it’s also connecting people. He does that as well as anybody I’ve ever been around,” Spoelstra said.
Love has always been considered to be a good teammate and as he’s gotten older he’s grown into a quality leader.
