Butler's kind of a one man show with Bam on D

AD had 31 pts, 17rbs, 3 blks in game 2. and 22 pts, 12, rbs, 7 blks, 3 steals in game 1. Where are the Bam monster games in the playoffs? He had 22 pts in game 1 and that was all the glory.

Yes AD has motor problems where he takes nights off but boy even suggesting a comparison between AD and Bam is insulting. AD is 10x the player Bam is.

What made Jimmy's performance spectacular is he did it w/ no real talent around him. He did it w/ a depleted team filled w/ undrafted players, 2 of which starting. Holiday is no slouch on D either.

I didn't expect to win, i did expect us to fight. I still dunno wtf i watched but i loved every second of it. Jimmy is an absolute monster.

What makes it worse is Herro is out.. if Herro was playing he would have lower scoring stats.. meant to be second option now but everyone else is stepping up on the offensive end instead

Don't get me started. I watched the gm at a sports bar. So much criticism on Bam.

Last season after heavy criticism in the PO's Riles publicly rallied for Bam that he shld take players pay checks for what he does. In todays Jimmy post game int. was asked about Bams offense & said Bam doesn't need to score to be impactful. This indicates that they know who Bam is. They understand his game, what he brings & they have an awareness for his lack of offense - They seem to be ok w/ this. As fans we then have to stop expecting him to be able to step up his offense even in situations such as this where we're depleted & we need scoring. If the organization & teammates don't expect it from Bam & they're continuing to be ok w/ it then i guess we shouldn't. He just ain't that guy & we should stop expecting it, as aggravating as that is.

I understand they like Bam's role as the guy that "makes everybody's job easier". Jimmy may not score 56 today if it wasn't for his defence/rebounds, assists & screens. I can dig that as Bam does do a lot of work that is also not on the boxscore. But to me i see a guy who's afraid, who doubts himself so he hesitates & thinks twice. I see a guy who could score more if he had the mindset that wld allow more courage. We've seen that heart & courage in spurts. We just need to see consistency in competitiveness in him.

Jimmy though did end his answer w/ a smile saying "but every chance you get, fire that bad baby up at the rim, that's what i do". To me that may be Jimmy encouraging Bam to just put up the shot. That's something i'm sure we can all agree on. He did have 16 attempts, 2nd highest, they just didn't go in. He got blocked twice by Lopez & fumbled the ball on attacks.

Game 5 should be going early and often to bam.. if he can get going and drop a 30 piece coach budhole won’t know how to adjust. If bam can’t going then I don’t think heat have a chance because their whole team will be laser focused on Jimmy f’n Buttler

Lopez would have trouble playing our defense.

Only because I've kept seeing so many others talk about moving Butler to move towards a Bam/Herro era which is crazy to me but hey, I was hoping they'd get their wishes. You don't get players like Butler that often so when you do you have to go all in, yet since acquiring him in 2019 the biggest move has been a S&T for past his prime Lowry.

Yes AD has motor problems where he takes nights off but boy even suggesting a comparison between AD and Bam is insulting. AD is 10x the player Bam is.

Bam had a very good all around game 1, game 2 would’ve been big if we weren’t getting drilled by 40 due to the bucks hitting the most 3s in franchise history just flinging **** up, game 3 was a very good game and his scoring wasn’t needed, game 4 he was terrible.

Idiots who don’t know ball would tell you he had a bad game 3 because he didn’t score more in a 30 point blowout despite him locking up defensively and leading the team in rebounding and assists while having a very high impact on the game. The uneducated cling to scoring and only scoring though.

Game 4 was bad because he wasn’t scoring but he also wasn’t impacting the game in the ways we’re used to, he had no impact until the last 6 minutes where he finally stepped up and made a big shot and had some huge defensive stops on Giannis plus the steal and assist to Jimmy. Good players find a way to impact the game in its biggest moments regardless of how they played.

Yes AD is better but you all acting like Bam is the only player in the league to have a bad game is hilarious

Yeah, I've gotten tired of seeing move Butler to start the Bam/Herro era and hence NEITHER moved to get help because of this older player in Butler.

Still can't believe a past his prime Lowry is the biggest move since acquiring Butler in 2019.

Move whatever it takes to bring Butler and Bam a real PROVEN playoffs scorer.

Regardless of the outcome of this season SURELY this is the offseason they finally do it.
