Warriors' Unexpected Revival with Jimmy Butler

The Warriors have shown remarkable improvement since acquiring Jimmy Butler, boasting a 5-1 record in his early games with the team. This success can be attributed to Butler's significant contributions on both offense and defense, as he averages 20 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 5.5 assists. Their newly formed chemistry is evident, particularly in lineups featuring Butler and Draymond Green, which have outscored opponents significantly in a small sample size. Despite this progress, questions remain about the team's consistency and ability to compete against stronger opponents as they eye a potential playoff position.
