People always complain about the bubble not being real basketball because the Heat made it to the finals and the Clippers choked.

They weren't up against impossible odds that game though.

Facts

[@RM-ut9wy]

Making Giannis stop was brilliant, as I've always noticed most teams (in the few times I've seen him play) 90% of the time back away and let him fly to the basket (afraid to take a charge or strongly contest his will to get to the hoop).

[@jfacts192]

It’s insane what playoff Jimmy did against the best defensive team in the league.

[@rogeliolozano2399]

Buckets is just sick. That was full all out sicko. Go Heat.

[@philvenn576]

My 8 year old daughters favourite player. Very very impressive. Gotta love Jimmy. I will say though Jordan’s record against that celtics team is also very amazing….maybe even more so. Especially where they were in their careers

Jimmy Butler has that lebron James type impact low-key he is a tough minded hardworking individual that doesn't take off possessive he not a shooter he a logical player that play bully ball Jimmy Butler is one of those players you got to respect he a leader of men and doesn't go down without a fight if that not a top player then you must be blind this guy loves the challenge to prove the doubters wrong jimmy is a perfect example of hard work beats talent 💯💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽.

They aint wanna give us a Segment when we won Game 3 (THey def had one after we got blewout game two) Now they FORCED to give us a Segment

[@mascot2007]

Remember all Butler is worried about is getting a ring that’s why season doesn’t matter just does enough to get to the playoffs
