The Miami Heat picked up a huge 108-101 win over the New York Knicks on Sunday afternoon to kick off their Eastern Conference semifinals series at Madison Square Garden.
Butler, however, didn’t do much from then forward. He largely stayed in the corner and tried to limit his movements as the Heat closed out the Knicks. Those free throws marked his last points of the day. He finished with 25 points and 11 rebounds after shooting 8-of-16 from the field.
The Heat, after trailing by seven at halftime, surged ahead in the second half and mounted a large defensive stand that limited the Knicks to just three field goals in the final almost five minutes of the game to take the win. "We're just playing great basketball," Butler said on ESPN."We're together at home, on the road, through good and through the bad. We believe that we can do something special. We're going to continue to play as such, and we're going to see where we end up in the end."
