Asked that it looked like he was having fun going back and forth with Dillon Brooks, Jimmy Butler made it clear there was no fun. “I don’t like Dillon Brooks.” – 2:11 AM

Rick Noland @RickNoland

That was an entertaining game. When his head is right, Jimmy Butler is invaluable. That was a man’s rebound on Sengun miss – 1:02 AM

Sam Quinn @SamQuinnCBS

Why did Jimmy Butler want to go to Phoenix again? If the Warriors were always willing to give him the contract, man they should’ve been obvious. – 12:58 AM

Jimmy Butler really is HIM – 12:56 AM

That’s Steph Curry’s sixth playoff technical ever. First since the 2019 playoffs. He stuck two fingers up at Dillon Brooks after his second foul and officials deemed it a taunt. Double T on Brooks/Draymond after. Missed FT. Zero points. – 11:00 PM

When the Warriors load up on Jalen Green, guys like Dillon Brooks, Amen Thompson and Alperen Sengun will be tasked with making them pay. – 8:59 PM

At this point, the Warriors are “hopeful” that Jimmy Butler returns tonight. He’ll go through warmups before a final determination is made. – 8:18 PM

Shortly after the trade for Jimmy Butler, an emotional Steph Curry told Draymond Green, “It’s our last ride.” Steph told ESPN: “How many more chances will we actually realistically have at chasing a championship?… We are trying to recreate that magic.” espn.com/nba/story/_/id…4:24 PM
