Jimmy Butler regularly gives 100 percent of his God given abilities. Plays through his opponents? There is no opponent!!
From Dwayne Wade to Jimmy Butler. The Heat is so fortunate to have this type of player that other teams may not have recognized their talent, grit, determination, discipline and leadership. Mastermind that is Pat Reilly to build an organization like the Miami Heat.
Jimmy Jordan
MVP
Iconic performance
Crazy how people switch up on you when you have a bad series… this man has 2 less playoff wins in his career than Charles Barkley already and he’s not even close to finished. He’s a HOF simply put
Heat heat heat 🔥
He is Him…Himmy Butler
Let’s go heat
Shakira Shakira ❤❤❤
I didn't notice at first, but has the net material been looking "stiff"? How long has that been? I remember those type of nets to be more responsive to impacts and such.
himmy is so sick!! so special! very talented player, a one of a kind! hope to see him win a chip this following seasons i think he'll get his in 2025 because i feel the Joker and the Nuggets will dominate again this season.
It's insane to me that LeBron spent some of his best years with this organization and this was the first 50 point game in their history
i come back here from time to time
This still gives me goosebumps man what a performance.

An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.

Players like butler who does this when it matters are very rare, usually its the contrary which is common, players who are regular season idols and shut off on playoffs.
