Jimmy Butler and the Miami Heat shocked the NBA world with their 119-114 win over the Milwaukee Bucks in Game 4 of their first-round matchup.

The Heat incredibly rallied from 15 points down to secure the victory. Miami did so behind a career-high and franchise playoff-record 56-point performance from Butler.

The Heat’s impressive comeback had NBA fans going wild on Twitter, with many praising Butler for his legendary performance:

“He's him ... Owner of Milwaukee,” one fan said.
“Playoff Jimmy the greatest to ever do it,” another said.

Meanwhile, others roasted Giannis Antetokounmpo and the first-seeded Bucks for falling to a 3-1 deficit against the eighth-seeded Heat.

“Giannis after winning his fake hospital ring in 2021: 2nd round exit & a 1st round exit against a play in team. That seals it, I speak for everyone when I say the league SHOULD revoke Giannis’ Mickey Mouse ring and hand it over to a real superstar in James Harden,” one fan said.
“Bucks Downfall 😹😹,” another said with a photo of Jayson Tatum and Derrick White of the Boston Celtics.
