Jimmy Butler almost single-handedly willed Miami to victory in Game 3 of the NBA Finals, taking it to the Lakers and LeBron James in a historic performance.

He may have to do it again.

With Goran Dragic still listed as doubtful for Tuesday’s Game 4 and Bam Adebayo questionable, Butler doesn’t have time to be tired or room to rest.

“What we’re trying to get accomplished is the toughest thing you attempt to do as a professional. It’s as hard as hell,” Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said.

With Dragic and Adebayo both getting hurt in Game 1, Miami dropped Game 2 as well before Butler rallied them with 40 points, 13 assists and 11 boards Sunday.

“All I can hear is Spo over and over again telling me how I’m not tired,” Butler said. “That’s literally what he tells me in the middle of the game. I’m just like, ‘All right, coach, I guess you know how I’m feeling. Yeah, I’m not tired.’ … You can’t be tired, you can’t be banged up. These guys need you.

“You know your body is going to be hurt, but you’ve got to tell your mind and tell your body to cut it out. That’s where I’m at at this point.”

Butler had just the third 40-point triple double in Finals history, taking the game right at James and pulling Miami within 2-1 in The Finals.

“He’s our max player,” Adebayo said. “We expect him to do max-player things.”

It’s not the way he’d like to play, preferring a more egalitarian, less Butler-centric game. But the shorthanded Heat aren’t giving him much choice.

“We don’t care what he thinks about that right now. We’re way past that now. There’s no turning back,” Spoelstra said with a wan smile. “For us to be able to accomplish what we want to accomplish, you can’t just be normal; you have to be extraordinary.”

The extraordinarily competitive Butler said he’ll shoulder whatever burden is needed.

“Whatever it takes to get to that point, yeah,” Butler said. “If coach would say, ‘I need you to do this’, our guys say ‘we need you to do this’, I’ve got to go out there and do it. I’ve got to make sure we win.”

Adebayo has been out since suffering a strained neck in Game 1, while Dragic has a torn plantar fascia in his left foot.

“It sucks,” Adebayo said. “It’s hard to hear your coach say, ‘No, you can’t go.’ It’s tough, because I lose my head, start kicking stuff over, get upset. … But it is what it is. I’ve got to deal with it.”

Dragic sounded even more pessimistic.

“I ask myself, I ask the guy above us why it has to happen right now. It’s tough,” Dragic said, adding of his Game 4 odds. “How I feel right now, it probably is low.”

So are the odds of James getting outplayed so thoroughly again. In his 52 Finals games, Sunday marked the first time he’d ever been outscored, outrebounded and out-assisted by one player. Having Butler taunt him by returning the King’s earlier warning and yelling “They’re in trouble!” at the endgame was salt in the wound.

But the Lakers have responded all postseason. They’re 3-0 after losses, with a plus-12.3 scoring margin and Anthony Davis averaging 33 points per game. That’s a far cry from the 15 he managed Sunday.

“It sucks just because you know if you play well and had done your job, you could’ve won the game. It always sucks when you lose, and especially when you don’t play well,” said Davis, who admitted the Lakers’ defensive communication was off.

“We’re able to take a loss and understand why we lost, understand things we should’ve done better and things we can apply to the next game to be better,” James said. “We’re right back at that moment with the opportunity to be better than we were in the game before. Look forward to the opportunity.”
