Jimmy Butler Scores CAREER-HIGH 56 POINTS in Game 4 vs. Bucks

[@jordancolon377]

I think people underestimate the difference between having a career high against the best team in the NBA and arguably the best defensive team in the NBA vs having a career high against a weak team. We should give Jimmy his credit on giving an offensive clinic

[@Sevion825]

He was going at Drue, Giannis, and Lopez all night. He was just unstoppable.

56 points in front of Jrue, Giannis, and Lopez is not even insane… those are literally the best defenders in NBA in their positions

[@ronaldtucker8997]

This needs to be amplified because I don't think a lot of people really realize this. He dropped 56 on the All NBA Defensive 1st team in the playoffs with a short roster. This is one of those performances that is so great that it's too soon for us to give it it's accurate ranking. And that's with people already calling it the greatest playoff performance ever. It may go down as the greatest individual performance we've seen in sports, period.

@@ronaldtucker8997 you’re one hundred percent right. Someone (not naming names) lit a fire in him so immense that it brought out the absolute giant of a player he is. If he was ever motivated like this for every game it would be the best player we’ve ever seen. But he picks and chooses when to attack. Liked him in Philly when he facilitated a lot but you gotta love him here when he just straight up attacks and plays the smartest fundamentals.

[@metapeace1897]

What for me makes this Jimmy's performance even more iconic & legendary is the fact that : he had to deal with two elite defenders and future HOF. 1er_ Jrue Holiday = an all - court defender & very good/tough in One on One. 2e_ Giannis Antetokounmpo = a perimeter defender & very dissuasive when it comes to protecting the hoop. And yet, they've NEVER been able to find a way to even slow him down, if not stop it all the game long. That was epic & stratospheric in every way 🔥💯👌✌️. I've always said that : Jimmy Butler was too underrated & and not respected enough in this league. It's really time to give the man his flowers 🎉🙏.

The playoffs aren’t for everybody. Some players shrink, others turn into stars. Some don’t survive, others find a way to thrive. It takes a different breed. A special kind of DNA. A human who’s not really human. But only one man becomes a mix of Michael Jordan and Jesus Christ in the NBA playoffs. It’s not LeBron, KD or Kobe. It’s the man who just sent the best player in the world back home with a 95% chance of getting eliminated. His name is JIMMY “F”an BUTLER.
