Dwyane Wade grabbed the headlines when he signed with Chicago in the summer, but Jimmy Butler is reminding everyone that hes a force for the Bulls.The 6-foot-7 Butler has put Chicago on his shoulder the past week. The Bulls have won five of their last six games overall, and they are 3-1 on their current road trip, which continues Tuesday night in Denver against the Nuggets.Butler continued his strong play with 40 points, seven rebounds and six assists in Sundays 118-110 win over the Los Angeles Lakers at Staples Center. It capped a week in which he averaged 27.3 points, 9.3 rebounds and 3.8 assists.It earned him NBA Eastern Conference Player of the Week honors.Overall, Butler is averaging 25.1, 6.6 rebounds and 4.1 assists this season and has blossomed with the departure of Derrick Rose as well as the addition of Wade.Hes playing with a tremendous amount of confidence, Bulls coach Fred Hoiberg told The Chicago Sun-Times. He feels like every time he steps on the floor that hes the best player out there. More often than not hes right.Butler has helped Chicago (9-5) dig out of an early hole this season to provide a challenge to the world champion Cleveland Cavaliers in the Central Division. He has taken to his expanded role and is learning from his new teammate and three-time world champion with Miami.Im talking to D-Wade before the game and hes just telling me how I have to approach the game, Butler told CBSSports.com. You go out there with a killer instinct every night. Make them adjust to you. Go out with a full head of steam and show them why you are one of the best players on the floor. Thats what I try to do every single night. If its coming from him, there has to be some truth to it.The Bulls have a chance to finish 5-1 on their road trip that wraps up in Philadelphia on Friday. First theyll have to get past the Nuggets (5-8), who have won two of their last three and are getting strong play off the bench from Wilson Chandler.Chandler, who missed all of last season following hip surgery, is averaging 22 points and eight rebounds over the last four games. The Nuggets have also started to get good production from rookie guard Jamal Murray. He had a team-high 18 points in the win over Utah on Sunday and is starting to feel more comfortable after a tough start.He just continues to grow in front of our eyes, Denver coach Michael Malone said. When he gets confident and he puts that ball up I think its going in every time he shoots it.The Nuggets are getting healthier, too. Guard Will Barton returned against the Jazz after missing nine games with a sprained left ankle. He had seven points in 19 minutes and is still feeling his way after missing so much time.I knew going in he wasnt going to be the Will Barton we love and want back because hes been out for so long, Malone said.Bartons presence will be needed against the Bulls, who rested Wade against the Lakers. The key to winning might be to stop Butler from having another great game. LeBron James Shoes Deals . You can watch the game live on TSN at 7:30pm et/4:30pm pt.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles understands why fans were booing during Sundays 33-16 loss to Oakland at EverBank Field. He said he learned long ago that fans like winning more than they like the players.If a team loses for a while, I bet everybodys probably pretty frustrated, Bortles said. I was fortunate enough to figure out at a young age that fans dont like players. They like winning. ... You know that theyre going to cheer for you when youre winning, and want you to sign autographs and take pictures. And when youre losing, theyre going to boo you.Thats the world we live in and thats what fans do. Its irrelevant to anything that goes on in this building.The Jaguars are 2-4 after the loss to the Raiders and just 14-40 in three-plus seasons under coach Gus Bradley. The team hasnt had a winning season since 2007.There was an outcry on social media among Jaguars fans Tuesday because of comments made by wide receiver Allen Robinson, who was asked?what he thinks when he hears that some people want the Jaguars to bench Bortles.Robinson told ESPN on Monday that the Jaguars have a better home-field advantage during their annual game in Londons Wembley Stadium.When you hear the atmosphere of when we step out on the field, when we go to punt or before halftime when Blake takes a knee and you hear the booing, its kind of funny to me, Robinson told ESPN. Its funny that we get our best home-field advanntage when we go to Wembley.ddddddddddddBortles has followed his breakout season of 2015 with nine touchdown passes and 11 turnovers (nine interceptions) through six games this year.

Hes struggling, too, with just 26 catches for 296 yards and three touchdowns.People from the outside are going to make their opinions, Robinson said. Again, as an offense were struggling. Not just Blake struggling. Not just I am struggling. As a whole, were struggling. This is a team thing. At the end of that, people are going to say what they want to say.Fixing the offense -- which ranks 30th in rushing, last in third-down conversions and 24th in scoring -- would be a good first step in eliminating the boos.When it comes down to it, nobodys trying to make a mistake, Bortles said. Nobodys trying to hold. Nobodys trying to throw an interception. I dont really know how else to put it other than we have to do better. I think at every position weve got to play better [and] find a way to play better.One thing that is good about it is we have [played better]. Weve seen it before. Weve done it this season. We did it last year. We have the ability and the right guys in the locker room to be successful and be a good powerful offense. Weve just got to find it. ' ' '
