Butler gets the boot the Heat make the playoffs period. Jimmy is a sickness sadly a brat. Pat Riley IS the Miami Heat. He administrates a franchise. Heβs very good at drafting players and one star away from competing to another level. Miami is a good place to play that spent their draft capital. They are getting some back and will rebuild quickly.

I’m not gonna keep a man who will not play for the team. NBA does not revolve around Jimmy Butler.

What does Phoenix do with Butler? Unless Beal okays a trade to Miami Butler plays the same position. What Phoenix needs is an aggressive big.

I wish no team would get him and that the Heat would suspend him infinitely without pay until his contract expires.

The heats should let him go he’s a good player but he’s not the piece to get you a title he always fall off at the end not worth it

Its his last contract and after getting Miami to the finals wuthout getting help twice cost him a ring and the bag. I dont know who is more at fault Miami or Jimmy. Houston looks good. He can take Houston to the Finals.

First of all, shout out to Steven a and smiley. Shannon and forgive me the other person ‘s name. Always a great production. Great analytics of what you’re talking about secondively Pat Riley you do what he got to do and Jimmy do what he got to do. I hope Jimmy is saved up his money. Maybe he’ll retire. Maybe he won’t. Oh well that’s my position on it. I understand and I get with you guys are saying about being afraid of being afraid of Pat Riley blah blah blah blah blah. It makes sense but it doesn’t make sense. People get too emotional all the time if it wasn’t for the NBA Linton a few situations letting these situations get like it is. These guys couldn’t move around like like they do. Now they can put a stop where like hey you guys got to play contract then it might be a different picture. Oh well I’m out here. You guys keep up the good work. Great production always. Take care. Everybody peace. I’m out of here
