Jimmy Butler’s Monster 40-PT Triple-Double in Game 3 of NBA Finals

Butler: We won. I could care less about a triple-double

Jimmy Butler had a career night in Game 3 of the #NBAFinals, recording a triple-double by scoring 40 PTS, grabbing 13 REB and dishing out 11 AST to go along with 2 BLK and 2 STL!
Butler’s historic outing helped the Heat take Game 3 in the best-of-seven NBA Finals.

Per ESPN, “I tell Coach all the time, `’I’m ready for this,” Butler said. “The biggest stage, whatever you ask me to do, I can do.”

His coach, Erik Spoelstra, has clearly listened.

“This is what he wanted, this is what we wanted,” Spoelstra said. “It’s really hard to analyze or describe Jimmy until you actually feel him between the four lines. He’s a supreme, elite competitor and we needed it.”

“We won,” Butler said. “I could care less about a triple-double.”

He continued: “I hope the next game I score zero, and y’all talk like y’all wanna talk, and we win, so I can come up here and say the same thing.”
