Jimmy Butler is the strongest playoff king, a symbol of toughness, because he plays relatively mediocre in the regular season but always explodes with madness in the playoffs, turning the tide. Butler is also the only player in the current league to have eliminated the super MVP superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo in the black eight. Despite the defense of Antetokounmpo and Brook Lopez, Butler can still score 56 points, which is undoubtedly his ability to play hard games. 30+20! 22+22! The entire league mocked him as a softie, thank you for the trade that made him the rebound king. Now, the Thunder in the Western Conference has won 12 consecutive victories and firmly holds the top spot in the West. In the Eastern Conference, the Cavaliers have won 8 consecutive victories, occupying the first place in the East and the league.
