Miami Heat forward Kevin Love wants to help solve the problem between his team and teammate, Jimmy Butler. At least, we think he does.
Love went on Instagram on Friday night and posted a video. The video was a clip from 1994 movie, Pulp Fiction. Along with the video, Love shared the caption, “Entering my Winston Wolfe phase.”
In the scene, Harvey Keitel’s character, Winston Wolfe, AKA, The Wolf, pulls up to the house of Jimmie Dimmick. The clip Love shared included part of the conversation the two had.
“You’re Jimmie, right? This is your house.”
“Sure is,” Jimmie replies.
“I’m Winston Wolfe. I solve problems.
“Good, we got one.”
“So I heard, may I come in?”

We can only assume this is in response to the Heat suspending Butler on Friday, one day after his press conference where he essentially demanded a trade. While the situation isn’t as urgent as the one Wolfe approached, things between the organization and player are not well.
Is the problem fixable? It seems bleak right now. But if anyone is capable of mending this rift, it’s a fixer like Wolfe — or Love.
