Jimmy if he were a fighter would be that disgusting body puncher that does not KO you to the head in one shot but instead causes your liver non stop server pain and slowly breaks your rib cage apart to the point where you remember everything and never want to experience it again and are afraid of it.

He just took their souls from them rather than ending them swiftly. That was as good as a methodical beatdown as you will ever see in any sport.

I thought so, he’s Been limping and not as explosive. I just figured it was the hamstring issue he’s also dealing with. Get him some steroid shots

Jimmy has three opportunities to close these guys out. The Bucks can't survive another performance like this, so I have to imagine that Jimmy's going to have 3 defenders smothering him at all times from now on to force him to give up the ball and force the Titos to make enough shots to win.

As an outside observer, I must say that I have been laughing at the NBA ever since the All Star team was announced. You're going to pick one guy from the Heat ... and it's not Jimmy Butler? My head still hurts from how many times I slapped it.

You guys are avenging what Giannis did to us two years ago. Please don’t let your foot off the gas and let Bucks fans feel what we felt. And if do get the Knicks, please put two feet on their heads and send them back to purgatory. I will most certainly be rooting for you against the Knicks if that matchup happens.

This team hasn’t played like the Tito’s to Butler. The Tito’s at least played their role besides Michael Jackson. These guys are more like the Pretenders by name only, or the Milli Vanilli’s photo covers without any content of their own. The content is all Jimmy Butler’s voice and performance. They need to at least be Tito’s by performance with guts and stop with the fake player act.

Time to help Jimmy and produce.

Everyone's banged up a bit at this time of the season.

Still gotta find ways to be impactful on both ends.

No excuses.

Bam should have the mentality that he's playing for the right to be on this team next season and beyond.

Looking back, this was easily one of the greatest, if not the greatest, playoff performance of all-time.

Scoring 56 points on 68% shooting for a wing player is absolutely incredible. Doing it against Jrue Holiday, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Brook Lopez (all three are DPOY finalists) is utterly insane. And it doesn't end there - he guarded all three of those guys (and Middleton) on the other end and played fantastic defense. Words cannot describe.

Just go out and drop 50, and shut down Giannis, Holiday, and Middleton while you're at it. That's what Jimmy MFing Butler just did.

He’ll be fine, game 3 when the scoring wasn’t necessary he was highly impactful everywhere else. Last night when we needed some scoring and he was struggling he let it affect his game elsewhere and he wasn’t impactful until the last 6 minutes. If he’s struggling to make shots he has to stay locked in everywhere else, the scoring will come but the other things got you to where you are today

I thought Giannis was the best player in the world, now I see it’s Jimmy when he locks in.
