3 years agoMiami Heat small forward Jimmy Butler turned his offensive aggressiveness up to another level during his team's Game 1 victory Tuesday, as he compiled 41 points on 19 shots, including attempting 18 free throws. The performance marks the third time this postseason Butler has reached the 40-point plateau, as he also added nine rebounds, five assists, four steals, and three blocks for an all-around massive outing. Arguably the best playoff showing of Butler's career came in the first game this postseason in which he did not knock down a triple. His constant effort on both ends of the floor favor his continued DFS appeal as the series carries on, with Game 2 coming Thursday.--Jesse Borek
