7:12pm, 18 May 2025Basketball
The series between the Warriors and the Timberwolves is over. After a season of hard work, the Warriors reached the second round of the Western Conference, which is already quite good!
The Timberwolves had 4:1 in a row. First, the gentleman swept the Lakers, and then the gentleman swept the Warriors, pulling the two powerful men off the horse in a row. It can be said that the team was very successful.
The Timberwolves have reached the Western Conference Finals for two consecutive years. Unexpectedly, this team, which is not very famous, is the only team that has achieved this feat in recent years. The young Edwards is leading the Timberwolves to stride forward!
When it comes to the Timberwolves, we have to mention that James and Butler were both eliminated by the team led by Edward, and were both former big shots in the playoffs!
Playoffs, as usual for James, he has multiple statistics and ranks first in the playoffs. It can be said that for him, the playoffs are similar to playing in the regular season.
Butler also achieved the Black Seven and the Black Eight Miracle in the playoffs. He is very strong. He is a representative of grassroots figures. He is not famous in the regular season. In the playoffs, he is like a tiger out of the cage, extremely fierce!
So who performed better in the game against the Timberwolves at 40-year-old James and 35-year-old Butler?
Let's take a look at the data of Warriors star Jimmy Butler, in 5 games, his highest score was in Game 3, with 33 points per game, averaged 38.2 minutes per game, and scored 20.2 points, 7.4 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 0.2 blocks, and 1.2 steals, of which the shooting percentage was 43.6%.
It can be seen that Jimmy Butler's data is not outstanding, especially his shooting percentage is less than 45%. As a forward player, this shooting percentage is indeed a bit low!
After watching Jimmy Butler, let's take a look at James' data. James also played 5 games with the Timberwolves, so what is his data?
According to statistics, James scored the highest score in 5 games with 38 points, averaged 40.4 minutes per game, and scored 25.4 points, 9 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 1.8 blocks, and 1.8 steals. Among them, the shooting percentage was 49.2%, close to 50%.
From the comparison of the data between the two, it can be seen that James' playing time is 40.4 minutes, which is greater than Butler's 38.2 minutes. In terms of scoring, James' lowest score per game is 19 points, while Butler has 17 points, with a highest score of 38 points, versus 33 points, and averaging 25.4 points vs 20.2 points. James is still better than Butler.
In terms of rebounds, James has 3 games, double rebounds, and averages 9 rebounds per game, which is greater than Butler's 7.4, and James' data is better. In terms of assists, the two are equally matched in assist data, both of them are 5.6.
In terms of blocking, James has blocks in almost every game, while Jimmy Butler only has one block in 5 games, while James averages 1.8 blocks per game, which can be said to be far stronger than Butler's 0.2. In terms of steals, both of them did well, but James averaged two per game, Jimmy Butler averaged only 1.2 per game, which obviously James performed better.
In terms of shooting percentage, James' shooting percentage is close to 50%, while Jimmy Butler is only a little over 43%, and the difference between the two sides is close to 6 percentage points. It is obvious that James is much more efficient than Jimmy Butler!
It can be said that James has fully encircled Butler in terms of 7 data, and the two are 40 years old and the other is 35 years old, and they are 5 years old. It can be seen that James' performance is not an exaggeration to describe it as a high energy in the front!
There is another problem. The Lakers basically have no inside line. James often plays as a center on the court, which consumes more physical strength. Although Jimmy Butler does not have a tall inside line in the Warriors, Drummond Green is an elite defender and can help Butler share many defensive tasks. Therefore, in terms of physical energy consumption, James consumes more!
This is more than that. Let's take a look at this year's playoffs. In the ranking of efficiency values, Antetokounmpo ranked first, Jokic ranked second, Tatum ranked third, James ranked fourth, and Butler ranked only 22nd.
When seeing Jimmy Butler and James, I can only sigh that James is a miracle. The 35-year-old Butler has tried his best to play well, while the 40-year-old James is stronger than him in all aspects of data. Is he still a human?
High energy in the front! 40 years old vs 35 years old! Against the Timberwolves, James 7 data, surrounded Butler
