One would expect that the first set the Golden State Warriors would run involving Jimmy Butler would be something that got him into the low post — perhaps after setting a screen for him or him setting a screen for a teammate in order to coax a switch from a smaller defender. That would be the most common-sense approach to get him acclimated to the Warriors’ offense, while also keeping things simple and straightforward. Furthermore, the prospect of Butler scoring against a smaller defender would force the defense to have to react in a myriad of ways.
