I'm sure people who thought the Pacers would have an easy upset series against the Bucks assumed that Miami's success is somehow transitive
Jimmy Butler in the 1st round last year averaged 37.6 PPG on 67% TS a stat line that not even Jordan ever matched in a series
people assumed the Butler that averaged 25 PPG on 55% TS the rest of Miami's Finals run was the same guy that beat Milwaukee... because they didn't watch the series
Jimmy butler was just average in the Celtics series. He got ALL the credit for the heat beating Boston. But it was Caleb Martin that did most of the damage.
