LeBron James and Jimmy Butler shine brightest

LeBron James and Jimmy Butler continue to be pivotal in dictating success for their respective teams. While James has taken on a fairly passive role for the LA Lakers, Butler continues to be the driving force behind the Miami Heat.

Butler has been one of the most dominant players in this year's playoffs. The Heat superstar put up an impressive 27 points, six rebounds and 10 assists to lead his side to a win in Game 4 against New York.

Meanwhile, James also had a great individual scoring night. He notched 27 points, nine rebounds and six assists in Game 4. Although James led the scoring for LA, he wasn't the most significant player on the team.

The Lakers saw backup guard Lonnie Walker IV put up 15 points late in the game to secure the crucial win. Anthony Davis also put an end to a lot of criticism regarding his consistency, by putting up a great performance in back-to-back games.

LeBron James and Jimmy Butler battled each other to a stand-still in the 2020 NBA Finals. Should the match-up present itself once more, there is no doubt that it will be an exciting one for fans to witness.
