Jimmy Butler plays an injury while Warriors win the heated game 4

San Francisco – When Jimmy Butler's coccyx still hurt in the end, he came through in a remarkable way and in every respect despite all the pain.

The star of Golden State Warriors returned from an absence with a game and returned to the starting line -up on Monday evening to achieve a victory in game 4 in game 4 in her first round against the Houston Rockets. He temporarily limp when he fell his team a victory from the increase in the semi -finals of the Western Conference.

“Above all, I just wanted to play. This is the best time of the year for everyone. That's why they go through what they are going through,” said Butler. “I don't like it to miss a game. But I'm back. I'm big again.”

Butler converted three free throws with 58.7 seconds that were in the competition, played the rebound with the game with four seconds and made two more bad shot diversions for 40 minutes as part of a 27-point night, less than a week after he suffered a pelvic account in game 2.

“It was great tonight. He went through the injury. It was beautiful,” said Draymond Green of Golden State. “But it is only his presence. What his presence is doing for this team is humming. The first three quarters, he couldn't move. I am not sure how he started in the fourth quarter, but he couldn't move. But he never complained.”

Butler used to take part in the shootaround a day and only had to warm up to be considered good.

“I thought it would win,” said Butler about his game in the track and started “moving a little better”.

During his first route, Butler played only more than five minutes and almost 18 minutes in a heated game that was late in the second quarter with four technical fouls and a flag 1.

The teams will return to Houston on Wednesday evening for game 5 of the Best-of-Seven series, while the seventh Golden State tries to close the 2-replacement rockets on their home floor.

The Warriors know how much they will need butler if they want to get a deep night season.

“We had to have him. If this were the regular season, he would probably miss a week or two,” said Steve Kerr, coach of Golden State. “But they are the playoffs, he is Jimmy Butler, so what he is doing is. The rebound at the end was simply incredible, the height, the strength, then of course the free throws knocked out. Jimmy was just incredible.”
