Jimmy Butler, the needy scorer for the Warriors
When Jimmy Butler he threw up Warriors last February, in particular, he was better able to deal with situations in which Stephen Curry was not present on the floor. So, in the absence of an All-Star point guard, ashamed of his thighthe All-Star winger currently has no choice but to activate “shooter mode.”
Without getting completely twisted: “ Sometimes (I will have to work more offensively), but I will continue to play the right way » he insisted therefore, after victory of Golden State against New OrleansSATURDAY. ” If you’re open, I’ll give you a pass. And I don’t care what people say, because it’s the real thing. And I expect the standout to shoot or create something for someone else, because that’s basketball. »
However, to be as effective as possible on offense, Jimmy Butler also needs his teammates – as Gary Peyton II – put him in the best conditions, not just to watch him play.
“He reminds me a lot of Andre Iguodala”
« We tried to push him into attack at the start of the match, but he kept telling us that the defense was tightening and we had to create movement » revealed Draymond Greenthe team leader barks. ” So when everyone started moving around him, spaces opened up and he was able to do what he was doing. When Stef is not on the field, we really need him to be more aggressive in attack. »
Capable of raising his level of play in the playoffs, Jimmy Butler was never the type to do so sustainably in the regular season. Steve Kerr he knows his player is a natural facilitator, adept at well-executed systems, not a pure scorer.
That’s why it reminds her of an old acquaintance: Jimmy doesn’t necessarily want to shoot, he really prefers to do the right thing » said the coach of the Warriors. ” He reminds me a lot of Andre Iguodala at this level. He is very rigorous in his approach to the game, he wants everyone to play the right way and he wants everyone to make the right pass. But there are times when we just need him to take over the game, attack and look to score. »
Pour Steve Kerr, Jimmy Butler « he’s not a superstar for nothing » and, before facing the Thunder on Tuesday night, appreciated his masterful performance (24 points, 10 assists and 8 rebounds) against the Pelicans: We gave him everything and he responded. That’s all we expect from him. »
