Jimmy Butler Leads The Heat To A Game 1 Win In The ECF 🍿 | NBA on TNT 

Butler is such a cool cat. He is playing with confidence, running with poise, walking with swagger, shooting with conviction.

One of the rare times I agree with Shaq. The Heat are so dangerous because of their consistency. Everyone understands their role and plays within their system. It doesn’t matter who looks better “on paper.” This is the best team left in terms of coaching and execution.

Jimmy Butler is the modern day Boston Strangler 🔥🔥💯

Jimmy Butler coming to Miami really elevated his game, the Heat culture is a real thing.

Miami lost to Atlanta at home in the play-in, almost lost to Chicago again at home in the second play-in, and then dominate the top East teams, mostly on the road. What a weird run.

Spo is so good at properly using a superstar. Butler’s gravity is just as valuable as his scoring and it showed down the stretch

Ernie: Interrupt me again and it’s gone be some furniture moving 😂 Shaq:That’s was for Kenny and Chuck,I apologize Godfather😂😂

If the Lakers don't advance past the Nuggets, I'm rooting for Jimmy Butler. He deserves an NBA title for the way he has been playing during the playoffs.

Heat got that '11 Mavs vibe and Butler got that Dirk unstoppable aura.

"you could have guarded Akeem better" is comedic genius from Chuck. Perfect timing

Refs helped Boston a lot. A ton of no calls and questionable calls in Boston's favor. Despite that the Heat still won. incredible

Miami has the toughest player and the better coaching staff. Hands down.

Celtics crowd’s last best hope is to chant “Rachel Nichols” to faze a focused Jimmy Butler at this point

As a Lakers fan, Heat is getting this series. They are too good and JB is insane.

Shaq speaks. Chuck disagrees. Shaq: Am I right Kenny?😂

Shaq made sure they remembered what they said pregame 😂

What is so strange is that if Miami would not have lost to Atlanta at home in the first play-in game then this would have been a first round matchup.

Jimmy looks so free out there, the way he finds and creates space is amazing, Curry/Jordan vibes

Shaq was the only one that believed in the Heat 🔥

Between what the panthers did to the bruins and what the heat is doing to the Celtics, I sense an intense hatred for south Florida teams in Boston. Not to mention what the dolphins have done to the patriots lately.

A lot of respect for the Heat doing this without Tyler Herro and Oladipo (combined for nearly 30ppg) As a Miami fan I’ve been concerned all season and I can confidently say this is their best basketball yet. Not only has Jimmy saved his best for the playoffs, averaging like 10 more ppg, but his teammates adopted that mentality too. Coaching has been great too

Nothing but love and respect for Jimmy Butler. What a player! ❤

Underdog fell asleep last night, woke up and remembered he needed to upload this video. What an esteemed gentleman!

I want to see the Heats in the Final against the Nuggets.

If Erik Spoelstra gets to the finals this year then he should be a Hall of Fame coach first ballot no questions if any.

It was nice to hear Shaq give Kenny his flowers 9 threes in the Playoffs is still crazy

You know what makes a great coach is that you turn regular players to role players and make them work as team regardless if he have 1 or 2 all star and that is Mr. Spoelstra.

i hope it goes 7 so we can get more of these guys!!

Butler and Heat are a match made in heaven…

This is the best show on game analysis of all time !!! Love these guys together !!!

Shaq is on the money here. Great job by the big fella.

It takes a team to win and it includes the coach. Coach Spo showing playoff experience rn.

😂we all know EJ runs things around there! That apology was smart by Shaq

One thing we can guarantee is that Jimmy Butler is going to show up. We can’t say the same thing about any guy on Boston

Pat Riley's eye for talent is unmatched in the league.

Still remember when Charles told Kenny that nobody is scared of the Heat and that people should be more worried about the Raptors….now the Heat are 3 games away from a finals appearance lol

Heat in 6! Let's go!!!

Celtics fan here, Playoff Jimmy is a dawg. Props. Celtics in 7 still. Keeping my hopes up for my dawgs

6:32, lol, Chuck is one of a kind with this stuff, he's got such a creative and smart mind. He's had an amazing life and I wish him the very best and I hope this main crew stays on for at least 5 more years, please!! 05/19/2023, 8:23am

Late posting but its cool because its the crew

2:33 who ya flippin off jimmy 😂

This Bulls fan loves and misses Jimmy. We all saw this in him, repeatedly, even when he was not nearly as skilled or composed. He needed a winning org, guys invested in winning as much as him, and people with experience to guide him. The Heat checked all the boxes. It's depressing, but I'm happy for him. Great dude.

I think Miami will win this series because they have the advantage in coaching.

You interrupt me again 🤣

15 each to every Miami role player. Contrary to what the record shows, I think this team is far more ready for this moment than they were last year. Makes you wonder if Tyler comes back, should they use him as they did before and risk the rhythm of the team right now?

I love that Chuck organized Kenny's notes

Ive never seen a player so dominant in the playoffs, his confidence is unbreakable. Jimmy Butler is a savage

So glad the Spurs won the lottery. We get to hear Chuck make fun of the big ol’ women in San Antonio. Everyone wins. 😂

Jimmy's first ring very similar to MJ's first. Like father like son lol

Jimmy Butler ✊🏿💯BEST PLAYER in this series!!!

I just love Jimmys story: similar to my own and we winning that chip too! Just fkn motivational man!!!

Miami has the best coach in the NBA..

Heat got a team full of unshakable killers. They play every possession like its the last minute of the 4th so when its crunch time theres really no adjustment. Lawry and Love are making strong first ballot hall of fame cases with their performances. Last guy to play at Butler level was 2019 Kawhi.

o boy. boston is gonna start guarding the perimeter more and the Heat are gonna start pounding the glass. Butler's comfort zone. scary heat, wild series.

Jimmys the definition of a basketball player on and off the court ..❤

Let’s go HEAT🔥🔥#CULTURE

Kevin Love wit that signature outlet pass

Love it !!!! Heat are dogs !!! The fight til the last seconds. Go Heat !! Shock the world. Lol 😂

chuck: i don’t think they put nails into coffin😂😂😂

When you realize Shaq played with 3 of the teams that's in the conference finals 😳 da goat

Thank you Shaq

I actually really enjoyed the points made by Shaq there at the beginning, good work big fella 👍

Miami always fights to the end win or loss. That effort alone wins you a bunch of games. I see so many teams give up when they can still win. I always liked Jimmy since back in Chicago when he was under the shadow of Derrick Rose at the time. He always had that killer mentality. But now he is more mature about his game and trusts his teammates. I hope we have a Heat/Nuggets final.

Shaq: I don't smuggle grapes. 🤣🤣🤣

Jimmy "Bus Driver" Butler. Dudes a superstar ✨️

Shaq references two things no matter the conversaion. 1. When he played, his teams, etc. 2. Something abt "The Others" Lol.

The man took that 3% personally🤧‼️

Jimmy Butler going Hash Slinging Slasher on these dudes

Excellent take Kenny!

keeny loving the small praise i can see it in his eye twinkle

Shaq can't go full paragraph troll on Ernie hahaha Godfather indeed lol

Jimmy Buckets is legendary

Business handshake always so cold 🥶

"Score 1 on 5."- Chuck😂😂😂

Smart passes is crazy😮‍💨‼️

Shaq actin up again, good to see from ya big fella!

Ernie ain’t taking no more bill from these guys! He’s been feisty lately and I’m here for it! 😂😂😂

Miami is playing team ball .. trusting each other.. passing for the next best shot

is this shaq's best analysis ever

Always bitter sweet.. when the TNT Crew move from the studio… to the Arena. Knowing we’re gonna lose these guys soon… till next season😞

GIVE THE GUYS THE FINALS PLEASE.

Butler is the real thing! Y'all keep heating it up on them boys!

Jimmy B from the city im extra proud of fam.

Strus has been big for Miami while Herro is out.

I agree with Shaq saying how Boston goes hot and cold consistently and that should be an area of focus for the Celtics. They just have enough talent that they always seem to get one more run than the other team and pull it off like they did against the sixers.

Chuck with the nails in the coffin line 😂🤣😂🤣

The Heat IS ON ☀

Butler is todays Kobe. Dude refuses to quit and is an assassin

Shaq knows his stuff!

Never been a huge fan but James Butler is playing out of his mind

"It ain't no stunner, I told you" - Shaq. 😂. He right though

I bet Denver AND Miami both do 4 game sweeps. Miami vs Nuggets will be a epic Finals.

lol - not sure why this stood out but, Chuck not understanding that old pine box coffins used to be nailed shut before they went into the ground to avoid them accidently opening as they are moved around (aka nail in the coffin = all done)....

I love Charles bro lol

Seeing the Heat in action in this first game. It's crazy to me how they get MORE coordinated the longer the game goes on. Like the first half is their warm up and then they actually play for real in the second half. Celtics seemed to not know how to handle it to be perfectly honest and turned it into a no defense all offense approach. The first half seemed to be theirs overall until Heat got warmed up. Also, chuck doesn't know what a coffin is. Funny stuff.

When Kenny said “Defend” I had a Thats so Raven moment and flashbacked to when that mattered

Jimmy Jordan, is what they called him. But man!, I agree now fron what Jimmy Butler showing now is by far the most electrifying performance in this playoffs. We can agree or disagree, if we talk about 2023 Playoffs, one thing comes to our mind. Is that Miami heat and Jimmy Butler. I swear to that. No one is more memorable than this man.

Jimmy Butler is there when you need him , he is for Miami what Lebron was back in the day

Jimmy makes everyone around him better, that’s the difference

6:50 Business as usual. That’s why we going all the way this year.
