Bam Adebayo on Jimmy Butler's play late against Clippers: The ball finds the right places. (Thursday) it was Jimmy. Jimmy had the hot hand. He scored our last eight and that's what he does. At the end of the game, if he wants to keep doing, I'm fine with that. I have no problem with him shooting step-back, one-footers."
