Jimmy Butler

SG, Miami Heat

Jimmy Butler posted 24 points on 8-of-20 shooting along with nine rebounds, three assists, a steal and a block on Wednesday to put the Heat on the cusp of the NBA finals.

The talk coming out of Game 3 was that Butler needed to be more aggressive on offense. He certainly took more shots tonight than in the prior three games but missed the majority of them and clearly began deferring to Tyler Herro, who was on fire offensively. The Heat are a game away from the finals with Butler playing a more supportive style, so critiques of his play seem to justifiably be falling on deaf ears.
