"Jimmy Butler's history of instant success"

Brianna Williams, ESPN

Since he made his debut with the team Feb. 8, the Warriors have gone 13-2 -- the second-best record in the NBA during that span -- including a six-game winning streak ["Heat" 4-13, 6L since the trade]

Before Butler's arrival, Golden State struggled when its stars weren't on the floor, getting outscored by 90 points when Stephen Curry sat and by 98 when Draymond Green was off the court. Since Butler joined, those numbers have flipped -- the Warriors are now +33 without Curry and +39 without Green, highlighting the immediate impact on both ends of the floor.
