We need more of Danny Green
Please, please, please, please don't trade Jimmy.
Keep his money.
Indefinite means indefinite.
Length of the rest of his contract.
Set an example.
Jimmy Butler is a poor example of a man and athlete.
Keep his money. All of it. For the length of his contract.
From Cham’s report re the team huddle, sounds like Spo set out to embarrass Jimmy in front of his mates. Understandable why he walked out. Had he been informed of the plan to keep him on the bench privately (which is from team perspective forward-thinking), maybe drama would be avoided.
Caving in, let the dude bench it for a while.
😊
Sheesh who actually WANTS "cancer" tho 🤔🤷🏾♂️ ijs lol w 🤦🏾♂️

Heat culture…hahaha
Jimmy butler for Mitchell Robinson
he would have already been traded if he didn't insist on going to one team
I would trade Butler to a team overseas jimmy is a wash up, too old, slow and injury prone. The heat would probably get nothing for this clown….
You know Jimmy, its ok to feel how you feel, but be professional about it.
His career is more known for dramatics versus basketball excellence.
Quitting on his team…lame
Shams is always going to be known as the Jimmy Butler guy. He only reports about Butler 😂
Beal for Butler
Ingram for Butler
Klay for Butler
Only trades I could see happening outside of 3-4 team trades…
NO NOT WARRIORS LOL😂 THIS GUY IS NOT A WARRIOR! HE'S I DON'T KNOW😅
do not take this spoiled attitude punk, he doesnt care about any team, he just wants money to ease his way into retirememnt, he had problem with all the teams he was with. what a greedy piece of bleep
Lol he's gonna fall off , he's absolute bad investment for any team
Danny don’t know nun y would jimmy n chef wouldn’t put us over the top tf
Ooo good call with the grizzlies, that would be nice
get rid of him already
The Suns are a joke.
Bring Jimmy to court for breach of contract. Instead of Miami paying him, make jimmy pay miami.
Trade idea: Heat, Suns, Kings, and Thunder.
Heat get: De'Aaron Fox, Trey Lyles, Aaron Wiggins
Suns get: Jimmy Butler
Kings get: Isaiah Hartenstein
Thunder get: Bradley Beal
This worked in Trade machine.
JB is much disrespected. Taking 2 teams to the finals is being treated like nothin burger
I'm a heat fan and I can assure you Jimmy Butler is not a Max player Y'all too busy being fooled by ESPN garbage, They keep feeding y'all Max contracts should only go to the one who is winning the rings
He think he's waaaay better then he actually is lol
I could never play with a mouth guard… That’s wild AF to me.
I hate the way Shams pauses randomly mid sentence before going to a word that’s not even complex
Warriors NEED Jimmy… Suns have the players to trade for Jimmy so it’s all on how bad Miami wants him gone
Put it in
Benching him for that trash. Now that’s just spitting on his face! Any player of his calibre would walk out.
Jimmy to the Golden State
When JB does get traded, I wonder if the heat will do a video tribute for his first game back in Miami 😆
Heat shouldn't accept a trade offer for Butler worth pennies for a dollar.
Teach him a lesson, humble these so-called stars and make them honor their contracts.
If he dont want to be there, take his money. He expect to get paid but not do the work? He wants to get traded, but he sabotage his value by acting like a child? Keep suspending him.
At this point Miami would take a handful of rubber bands and paper clips for the cap relief. Aside from Jimmy and Rozier who has been awful this season their team is all very young up and coming players. They’ve been arguably the best drafting team for the last 7 years relative to pick selection, have a reputation of making solid role players out of G league guys.. a full strength and motivated Butler is a loss and they aren’t a top tier contender right now but when you see games like their last one you can tell the future is still bright with their core. Especially with 50m off their books.
Just keep the Bulls are your mouth Shams! The Bulls don't want or need either one of those overrated losers. Let them trade trash for trash with hugely overrated contracts for each other, Zach Lavine is having a WAY BETTER season than either one of those washed fools. HARD PASS on Beal and Jimmy. Besides, they already had the Jimmy Butler Circus in Chicago, and once was more than enough. And that was not just a one-off situation, just look at how it ended in MINN, PHIL, and MIA. Why would ANY team want to be in the Butler or Beal business is beyond any logic
The problem is with the coach. Miami Heat should treat its start players better and make sure he retires as a Heat. We found a lot of success with Jimmy and he gave us everything.
With D’Aaron Fox on the market, Jimmy just became Buzz Aldrin, second place.
THE WARRIORS DONT NEED HIM
It's not about the name on the back of the jersey, it's always about the name on the front .. GO HEAT
Don't do it warriors!
Neither the Suns nor the Warriors need Butler.
Hard to put price on cancer.
About time BigFace Coffee opens in Taiwan
Hell no, Grizz don't want that headache.
Make a big trade. Who up for being moved? Who gets what?
BULLS: Beal, 2 2nd round picks
LAL: LaVine
SUNS: Jimmy
BUCKS: R Williams, J Grant
BLAZERS: 1st round pick
HEAT: Coby White, Kris Middleton, 2 1st round picks
Whoever gets Jimmy has to deal with Jimmy's drama.
Fox for Jimmy.
