Jimmy Butler After Game 5 Win: 'I Left It All Out On The Floor' 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sat Oct 10, 2020 3:59 pm

Jimmy Butler finished with 35 points, 12 rebounds, and 11 assists in the Miami Heat's 111-108 game 5 win over the Los Angeles Lakers.


Butler played 47 minutes and 12 seconds in the game.


"I left it all out on the floor along with my guys. And that's how we're gonna have to play from here on out. Like I always say: It's win or win for us," said Butler after the game.


Butler has played 45 minutes or more in 15 playoff games, the third most in the league behind LeBron James and Kevin Durant.


"His will to win is remarkable. Every young player coming into this league should study footage on Jimmy Butler. The definition of a two-way player," said Erik Spoelstra after the Heat pulled within 3-2 in the series.


Bam Adebayo added that he has to play better and help Butler carry the load in game 6.


"On my part, I got to be better for him, so he doesn't have to carry that load as much. So my mindset is I got to be better for Jimmy, for my team."

That's true, Adebayo needs to get better. AD owned him in Game 5. Bam looked scared often.
