꧟Butler arrived at Golden State from the Miami Heat before the trade deadline.
ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚThe Warriors are 3-1 since Butler's arrival after they beat the Houston Rockets 105-98 on Thursday.
൩Butler finished with 19 points, eight rebounds and four assists.
🐻"He's a franchise changer," Green said of his new teammate.
ไ"He's done that everywhere he's gone and he is helping revitalise what we got here.
𒈔"The belief amongst this team, now that he's arrived, as opposed to what it was before he got here, it's night and day."
🅠The win over Houston came on the back of a tight turnaround following Wednesday's defeat to the Dallas Mavericks.
𓄧"We let one get away [against Dallas] but this one tonight, we would've lost," Green said.
🌱"But just having a guy like that changes everything for us. So after four games, the assessment [on Butler] is, it's great."
✃Warriors coach Steve Kerr was equally as effusive in his praise of Butler.
♛"Jimmy, he's a real deal," Kerr said. "Just a complete basketball player, methodical, under control all the time, plays at his own pace, never turns it over, sees the game and then can get to the line frequently.
💯"Great closer, not in the traditional sense where he's going to be Kevin Durant and make four straight midrange jumpers, but it's more of a complete game.
𒐪"Get to the line, make the right pass, get somebody else an open look, get a defensive stop, get a rebound. He's a fantastic player."
