Caron Butler: Will Stay In Starting Lineup
Thunder coach Scott Brooks said Butler will stay in the Thunder's starting lineup moving forward, The Oklahoman reports.
Analysis:
Butler moved into the starting lineup for Game 6, replacing an ineffective Thabo Sefolosha, who didn't get any playing time Thursday. This probably could have been assumed, but Brooks' words leave no doubt. Butler finished Thursday's contest with seven points (2-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four boards, three assists and a steal in 29 minutes, as the Thunder easily played their best game of the series.
