Jimmy Butler cheerfully sings Alicia Keys ahead of Celtics Game 5

The Boston Celtics must be sweating right about now. “Playoff Jimmy” Butler seems to be feeling just fine ahead of the Miami Heat’s Game 5 though.

The No. 8 team in the Eastern Conference, the Miami Heat, has made it all the way to the Conference Finals, where they now lead the series 3-1 over the Boston Celtics.

They have their star player Jimmy Butler to thank for a lot of that, as he’s been clutch throughout the whole post season.

They could have moved on to the NBA Finals with a win on Tuesday, but the Celtics pulled ahead to force a Game 5, which is tonight. Butler, though, is ready to close it out once for all and head for the championship fight. During his post game conference on Tuesday, Butler came in cheerfully singing Alicia Keys’ song “No One”.

The line he was singing? “Everything’s gonna be all right.”

It’s exactly that attitude and confidence that has gotten Butler and the Heat this far. They are underdogs going on the road against Boston, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they end the series once and for all tonight.
