Miami Heat Capture Game 4 Behind Jimmy Butler


Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler vowed he would atone for missing the final shot in Friday’s one-point loss Game 3 to the Atlanta Hawks in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs. 

Butler did more than that in Sunday’s Game 4. He scored 36 points, including 13 in the second quarter, to help the Heat to a dominating 110-86 victory to take a 3-1 lead in the series. 

“We had to find a different way to win this game,” Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. “A lot of it was our defensive toughness and versatility.”
