Jimmy Butler doesn't score on Thursday
Jimmy Butler - G/F - Chicago Bulls
Feb. 21, 2013 - 11:35 PM ET

Jimmy Butler failed to score in Thursday's blowout 86-67 loss to the Heat to go with three rebounds, one assist and three turnovers in 21 minutes.

It may have been the straw that broke the camel's back for his owners. Butler's minutes and usage rates are way down lately and it wouldn't be a bad idea to cut him for a hot free agent like Moe Harkless or Andrew Nicholson. The Bulls scored a season-low 67 points and they'll look to bounce back against the woeful Bobcats on Friday.
