Observations and other notes of interest from Friday night’s  135-122 loss to the Denver Nuggets: – Almost from the start, it was as if the Heat were auditioning for a role on Wayne’s World. – As in, “We’re not worthy.” – (Google it, lots of neat GIFs.) – Because when it comes to elite competition, quality wins continue to evade Erik Spoelstra’s team. – As was the case, again, in this one. – And for more than Jimmy Butler being lost for the night in the first quarter with an ankle sprain. – Yes, they fought to the finish against the Suns. – And two days before that against the Kings. – But the reality is the Heat remain stuck on three wins. – With those three wins against the Pistons, Hornets and Wizards. – Yes, the first two of those three have been particularly scrappy this season. – But still not exactly the stuff of a contender’s resume. – Next up are the Timberwolves on Sunday in Minneapolis. – So another chance to make a statement. – Or, possibly, now with Butler ailing, another “We’re not worthy” moment. – Almost as if the Heat’s lineup features Wayne Campbell and Garth Algar. – With all due respect to Mike Myers and Dana Carvey. – The Heat remained for the eighth time in as many games with an opening lineup of Butler, Bam Adebayo, Nikola Jovic, Tyler Herro and Terry Rozier. – Out again for the Heat were Kevin Love (return to competition conditioning), Jaime Jaquez Jr.
