"This is a business trip for me. I'm not messing around," Butler said. "Everyone wants to have their family, without a doubt. But we've been doing this for this long, what's another couple of months? It is an individual decision and I respect that decision that my teammates make, but I'm here for business."
The all-business mentality seems to be working for Butler.
He had a huge performance in the Heat's Game 1 win over the Bucks on Monday night, scoring a playoff career-best 40 points.
