Miami Heat Playoffs: Can Jimmy Butler Be Best Player On Floor For 4 Wins?

Miami Heat Playoffs: Can Jimmy Butler Be Best Player On Floor For 4 Wins?

That brings you to an interesting question. Who will have the better players on the floor in this series between Boston and the Miami Heat?

Deeper than that, who will have the absolute best player on the floor? Finally and most specific, to this notion, can Jimmy Butler, the Miami Heat’s best player, be the best player on the floor for four Miami Heat wins?

The answer has to be—a resounding yes.

To be clear, it would only be between Jayson Tatum and Jimmy Butler.

There are several ways to attack this, but the two that will be used here today are the most effective at getting an explanation across for these purposes. The easiest is by looking at the top players in these playoffs.

To be frank, the only other guy that could, flat-out, be looked at as playing better than Jimmy Butler got sent home by Tatum’s Celtics on Sunday, Giannis Antetokounmpo.
