Butler led the #8 seed Heat to an iconic win over the #1 seed Milwaukee Bucks during the 2022-23 NBA playoffs. In game 5, the Heat trailed during the fourth quarter. However, some late heroics from Butler cut down the lead which led to some back and forth with Jrue Holiday.
Despite trailing, Butler told him, “I own you”. Now that is some next level of confidence. This is not all. In the next round of the playoffs against the New York Knicks, Butler and Kevin Love were seemingly sweeping the floor to point out Knicks’ Obi Toppin stepping out of bounds, which left fans bewildered.
