There is no desire to win at all! With Butler s performance, how could the Warriors win?
6:21am, 17 May 2025【Basketball】
In a previous NBA Western Conference semi-finals G4, the Minnesota Timberwolves defeated the Golden State Warriors who played at home 117-110 again. After this game, the Timberwolves widened the total score of the series to 3-1 and won the match point; while the Warriors encountered a huge crisis, it seemed that they were on the verge of being eliminated.
In this game, the performance of the Warriors' forward star Jimmy Butler was extremely disappointing. Butler played 34 minutes and 22 seconds in the whole game, made 5 of 9 shots, 0 of 1 from outside the three-point line, and 4 of 5 free throws, only scored 14 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block. He also had 2 turnovers and 2 fouls, with a plus-negative value of -30. Butler did not show enough offensive desire on the offensive end at all. He seemed to have no confidence in helping the team win on the court. He lacked basic aggression and his presence was seriously insufficient. He lacks sufficient scoring contribution, nor does he show any passing and organizational skills, and his contribution on the defensive end is also very limited. As the team's star, such performance is absolutely unsatisfactory. The number one star looks like he doesn't want to win, and in the end he only performs like this, it is normal for the Warriors to lose the game.
Since joining the Warriors, Butler has played 30 games for the team in the regular season, averaging 32.7 minutes per game, averaging 17.9 points, 5.5 rebounds, 5.9 assists, 0.3 blocks, and 1.5 turnovers and 1 foul. His shooting percentage is 47.6%, three-point shooting percentage is 27.9%, and free throw shooting percentage is 87%. In the playoffs, Butler played 10 games in the first 11 games, averaging 35.5 minutes per game, averaging 19.4 points, 6.7 rebounds, 5.1 assists, 0.3 blocks, and 1.2 turnovers and 1.7 fouls. He shot 45.4%, three-point shooting percentage 33.3%, and free throw shooting percentage 79.7%.
Butler's performance throughout the playoffs can only be considered a sloppy level. With the improvement in playing time, his data has not actually improved significantly, and his performance on the defensive end cannot meet everyone's expectations. When Stephen Curry was unable to play. Butler should have been the backbone of the team and should have turned the tide and scored 30+ or even 40+ high scores. Only in this way can the Warriors make a bigger breakthrough in such a fiercely competitive game. As a result, in such an extremely critical game, Butler seemed to have no fighting spirit at all. He continued to perform such mediocre performances, and he could not tell at all that he was a core figure with a maximum salary. In the next life-and-death battle, can Butler improve his performance?
