It looks like Jimmy Butler [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/jimmy-butler/] has finally found a home in Miami Heat after jumping from team to team in the last couple of seasons. He made a great showing for his team in the NBA Playoffs [https://stats.nba.com/playoffpicture/], helping the Heat take a 2-0 lead over the Indiana Pacers. The hot shooting from beyond the three-point line was too much to handle for a Sabonis-less Pacers team. Moreover, the Miami Heat’s 17 long-range bombs set a new franchise record [https://twitter.com/Anthony_Chiang/status/1296526270738640897] for three-pointers made in a single playoff game for the franchise. While Butler struggled a bit from the field, it was Duncan Robinson who was on fire today. He drained 7 three-pointers to give Heat a comfortable lead over the Pacers. Also, TJ Warren’s exquisite Bubble form has disappeared during the playoffs. Could it be that Butler has got into his head? [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/USATSI_14781750.jpg] IS JIMMY BUTLER A MIAMI HEAT FOR LIFE? Last season, Butler joined the 76ers to ensure success in the playoffs, but Kawhi Leonard had other plans. The 76ers were eliminated in the Conference semi-finals and Butler joined the Heat. At the time, NBA fans heavily scrutinized Butler’s decision. But as it turns out, things worked out perfectly for Jimmy. He is known as one of the most dedicated players in the entire league, and Miami Heat [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/miami-heat/] is the perfect place for a player like him. In an interview with Taylor Rooks [https://twitter.com/TaylorRooks], Butler was asked about the reason behind his success with Miami. Butler replied, “I get to be me.” “We don’t take nothing personal because everybody knows that, whenever I say something I mean well, it may not come out the right way but I mean well and it goes that way across the board. “You don’t skip over people to get a message you go right to them and I think here that’s how they want it, we thrive like that and we play great basketball.” It seems Jimmy Butler has finally found himself a home with the Heat. The major issue he faced with his previous teams was with the work ethic of his teammates. But the situation is different in Miami. Should he remain in the Miami Heat? 

Jimmy Butler has nothing but praise for the Miami Heat. He revealed how the Heat
have helped him thrive on success and play great basketball

The 2020 <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">NBA</a> Playoffs will take place at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida. Due to the severity of the coronavirus pandemic, there will be no fans in attendance for the entire playoff series.

<img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-344955" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200817235157/EYxJVM-XgAMyNUR-1.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="675" />

However, there will be no changes made to the tournament structure. This year’s postseason format is the same as that of the 2019 Playoffs or any other year since the tournament’s inception. The significant difference is that there will be no fans and every team will play in a neutral venue.
<h2>The teams that have qualified for the 2020 NBA Playoffs</h2>
Qualifying for the postseason is a difficult task. 30 teams from both conferences play out 82 games in a stretch during the regular season. But this year has been a unique experience. No team got to complete their original schedule as the pandemic caused chaos and urged the NBA to take a four and a half month hiatus.

However, the league managed to organize a <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/orlando-bubble/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">massive bubble</a>, in which each invited team played eight seeding games to determine the playoff table. With all regular-season games done and dusted, eight best teams from each conference have made their entry into the 2020 NBA playoff bracket.

<h2>2020 NBA Playoffs Schedule and how it works</h2>
This year’s playoff structure is no different than any other year. Barring the fact that the players will be competing for the championship inside a closed bubble, everything else is the same. The teams will be following the same format, playing out a best-of-seven series to determine the winner of each playoff round.

There are a few teams in contention for lifting the championship this year. But one thing is for certain. This is a game that we’ve never before experienced. We really can't predict the outcome this year. The bubble, the lack of fans, and the number of restrictions in place. Here is a photograph of the playoff bracket:

The 2020 NBA Playoffs schedule is always a jam-packed one. This year is no different as well. The schedule is commencing on August 17 and we can expect to see the conference finals kicking off by September 15. The tentative date for the 2020 NBA Finals is September 30 and is expected to stretch no longer than October 13.

ESPN and TNT dominate the TV broadcast schedules as expected. These two networks enjoy a major share of the first-round and second-round games. But, the TV broadcast doesn’t end with these two networks. ABC also has the right to broadcast a small portion of the first and second-round games.

The conference finals’ broadcasting rights are split between ESPN and TNT. The Eastern Conference Finals will exclusively be televised by ESPN, while TNT holds the rights for the Western Conference finals.

Duncan Robinson is a 6’7” shooting guard/small forward who plays for <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/miami-heat/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Miami Heat</a> in the NBA. Robinson was born on April 22, 1994, to Elisabeth and Jeffrey Robinson. The Maine native went undrafted in 2018, but later signed with the Heat.

Robinson attended two different high-schools; The Governor's Academy in Newbury, Massachusetts, and the other being Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire. The talented guard received signed up for a Division III college after putting up incredible scoring averages as a senior. 

Duncan Robinson had immense potential and Division III Williams College just wasn’t the proper place for him to be. As a freshman, Robison guided Williams to the Division III championship game and led them in minutes played, points, three-point percentage, FT percentage, blocks, and steals.

A string of quick decisions saw Robinson transfer his talents to the University of Michigan in 2014. He vastly worked on his shooting techniques, and the improvements were visible in his game. Robinson mostly started off the bench for Michigan, but his efforts ranked him as the fourth player on Michigan’s All-Time three-pointers list.

Michigan lost to Villanova in the 2018 NCAA Division I championship game, and it was a heartbreak for Robinson once again. He achieved a rare feat of having starred in both a Division III and Division I championship game in his college career. 
<h2 style="text-align: center">Duncan Robinson NBA Career</h2>
Robinson was eligible for the 2018 <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/" rel="noopener noreferrer">NBA</a> draft, but teams passed him on.

The franchise then signed him up on a two-way contract with their G-League team. Robinson just played 15 games as a Heat rookie and just averaged 10.7 minutes a game. However, the fortune turned when the 2019/20 season dawned. 

Robinson shone bright with his shooting during the initial games of the 2020 season. A few injuries left Miami wounded, and the Maine native proved to be an effective backup. This impressed head coach Erik Spoelstra.

<h2>Jimmy Butler’s Net Worth 2023, Family, House, Cars, and More</h2>
<h2>Jimmy Butler’s Net Worth 2023 (Update)</h2>
Jimmy Butler currently has an estimated net worth of $80 million. Despite being homeless during his teenage, Butler has made a fortune thanks to his grit and hard work. For the 2022-23 season, the superstar earned $37 million in salary. Over the course of his 12-year NBA career so far, the forward has reportedly received over $200 million in salary. Furthermore, Butler pockets around $10 million per year from his endorsements.
<h2>Jimmy Butler’s Early Life </h2>
Jimmy Butler was born on September 14, 1989, in Houston, where he spent most of his early years. He graduated from Tomball High School, Texas in 2007, where he was a basketball superstar. Butler then attended Tyler Junior College, since he was not considered a huge college prospect. After his freshman year, the 6'7" star accepted an offer from Marquette to play college basketball in 2008. Butler graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in communications from Marquette in 2011.
<h2>Jimmy Butler’s Family and Personal Life</h2>
Jimmy Butler's parents are Jimmy Butler Senior and Londa Butler. The 6-time NBA All-Star had a very tough childhood. His father abandoned the family when Jimmy was an infant. Also, according to various reports, Londa kicked Jimmy out of the house when he was just 13 years old. The teenager was homeless and spent years alternating between friends' couches. He did not have a stable roof over his head until he was 17 when he met his close friend, Jordan Leslie, at a basketball camp.

They soon became very close friends. Jordan's mother, Michelle Lambert, and stepfather already had seven children to take care of.

<h2>Jimmy Butler’s Basketball Career</h2>
Jimmy Butler was a high school basketball superstar at Tomball High School, despite being homeless. However, he was not a huge prospect and so he decided to attend Tyler Junior College. He then attracted interest from various Division I schools after his freshman year, including Marquette. Jimmy accepted Marquette's scholarship and continued his development by playing college basketball for the next three years. He won multiple accolades for his performances in college. After graduating in 2011, he declared for the NBA draft.

Again, Jimmy was not considered a big prospect, and many teams passed up on the opportunity to draft him. The Chicago Bulls selected him as the 30th overall pick in the first round. In his rookie season, he did not get much playing time. His patience paid off in his sophomore season as he saw a considerable jump in playing time. However, Jimmy had to ply his time and prove he can be a good asset to the team. So he worked hard on the defensive end and earned the starting spot in his third year in the league.

The next year, Jimmy averaged 20 points per game and earned his first All-Star appearance. He continued his ascension and became the main man for the Bulls. In 2017, he was traded to the Minnesota Timberwolves. After just one season, the Timberwolves traded him to the Philadelphia 76ers. The trend continued as the 76ers then traded Butler to the Miami Heat after just one season.

Finally, Jimmy found his home in Miami. It is arguably a match made in heaven given the mentality of Butler and the renowned Heat Culture. In his first season with the Heat, Jimmy led the team to the 2019-20 NBA Finals. Unfortunately, the team lost the title against the Los Angeles Lakers. Fast forward to the 2022-23 season, and he has again willed his team to the Finals despite being the 8th seed.
