Is anybody having more fun than Jimmy Butler?
The Heat’s do-it-all superstar put up another classic Finals performance in Miami’s thrilling Game 5 victory against the Lakers, just barely outdueling LeBron James in an instant classic. The series will now head to a Game 6 after a 111–108 win for Jimmy’s squad.
“It was hard this game and it's going to be even harder next game,” Butler said during his postgame presser about trying to topple the Lakers, before adding, “but I like our chances.” As those last five words came out of Butler’s mouth, his expression quickly changed to a knowing grin, reflective of the attitude he’s embodied all postseason.
