Reading some of these comments cracks me up.

The franchise has 8 winning seasons since KG (1995) walked through the door and that includes teams with Cassell, Marberry, Sprewell, Billups and other key veteran players.

I don't even have to look at their roster to tell you the franchise is a joke.

Very few players can change a franchise by themselves and I would argue it is even harder for a non ball dominate player to do it.

KAT just needs to get the hell out of dodge and sign up to play in Milwaukee, New York, Phoenix, LA, Boston or somewhere he can get aligned with some good talent.

Teams don't win in the NBA with 1 or 2 good players anymore.

I might be remembering incorrectly, I know of his drama in Minnesota obviously, but what drama did he bring to Chicago, Philly, and Miami? I havent read anything that is a major red-flag regarding it.
He got into it with D Rose in Chicago. He didn’t like the Rose was the prodigal son and he’d get pissed of that no one thought he was a star.

In Philly he got into it with Ben Simmons and Doc Rivers. Jimmy wanted to be the primary ball handler. Unlike in Minnesota with KAT.....Ben isn’t going to let him do that. Ben told the organization that he wasn’t letting a Jimmy handle the ball constantly. Jimmy gets pissed during his free agency decision.....comes back to the states after being in Paris for months and then he tells Philly he wants his money so they need to sign and trade him.

It’s always weird to me that no matter who the player is that people are trashing, there’s always someone who is a huge fan of said player. They’ll defend him to the death it seems.

I don’t care one way or the other but here are two facts:

1. Butler has always been a turd.
2. Butler is struggling MIGHTILY. As in, I almost feel second hand embarrassment for him with some of the shots he’s taking....almost.

UK fans enjoying it shouldn’t be a shock to anyone.

Yea true but like TO......Jimmy is or was an awesome awesome player who just had attitude issues.
My point isnt that Jimmy is terrible at basketball. It's that Jimmy is a terrible teammate, is not nearly as good as he and his fanboys think, and he is heading for a sharp decline bc he isnt elite anymore and team's know he is a mental basketcase. 2020 bubble Butler was a one time thing and its long gone

You’re wasting your time. He made KAT cry and let everyone know he was butter soft physically and more worried about money & video games than winning, so a lot of UK fans hate the guy. They’ll take a bad series, when no one could throw it into the ocean, and act like it’s a guys whole career.
More worried about video games than winning? LOL, 99% of NBA players play video games but when you have a toxic team cancer like Jimmy Butler, he uses it to tear down teammates to excuse his failures. How simple do you have to be to fall for the BS this clown leaks to the media? Butter soft, you clearly don't even watch games, just lazily adopt narratives like lazy sheep who can't think for themselves do.

Just a FYI, butter soft players can't put up 25 and 10 in the NBA. Real butter soft is dudes who can't apply context logic and reason and are controlled by propaganda.

Bam and TH being indecisive and losing confidence doesn't (or at least shouldn't) have anything to do with Jimmy. Bam is getting paid $163 million and Tyler is a high-level scorer off the bench. If they are somehow scared of Jimmy to the point where they are missing and/or not taking open shots, then there are serious questions regarding their mental toughness.
Bam is still on his rookie contract making $5 million this year and is taking as much blame at 23 years old as 10 year vet, $34 million a year face of the franchise Jimmy Butler. It's always someone else's fault. Maybe Jimmy has mental toughness issues. He is a team worst -68 and made 7 FGs in a must win game at home.

Dude should be a politician the way he controls the media and narratives that fans buy into.

Great points.

And all I’m saying is, that his pattern of bad history appears to be reappearing on the Heat’s team. I have even defended Jimmy B here before. No one is excusing anyone’s play, but I’ve watched the game for decades and you can just clearly see something is going on internally. And I’m far from the only one stating this.

The wanting to be the primary ball handler is clearly happening in Miami. When Butler is in the offense, 90 percent of the time the offense starts with Butler either bringing it up court or receiving the first pass on the wing to run any sets or do ISO’s.

It’s just making more and more sense now. It’s like a contagion that spread wildly and these last two games it really showed.

Just did a little digging. I stated a week before this playoffs that Herro and Bam had their “green light” revoked and it had actually happened to Simmons too, the first link is exactly how I envisioned what went down:

I watched Butler in the 3rd quarter last night and he was awful on everything he did. Airballs. Wandering around leaving people wide open for 3 pointers. Air balls. I was thinking that's a lot of mouth for somebody that can't play a lick half the time. I know the guy can play his arse off sometimes, but my goodness he was terrible.

Yea the Sixers wanted to commit to Ben not Jimmy and I don’t blame them for that. Last year I was angry but it was an overreaction to what was a fluky playoff bubble run. Jimmy would throw fits during team film sessions because of plays that he felt should have went to him. He is the ultimate diva. But of course he wants everyone to know he’s working harder than anyone and that he’s getting up for practice at 2 am every day and that he wants it more. That narrative has worked well for him up until this point.

It’s just uncanny. So many similarities. KAT young, becoming prominent, Jimmy tries to tell him how to play and publicly calls him out. Simmons being younger, gaining spotlight, fan fave, Jimmy tells Simmons how he should play. Now, Bam young, getting max contract, DPOY mentions along with Herro young, becoming a fan fave, strong rookie year, it’s a cycle.

There’s really no need to say anything more. In the end, it’ll come out. It’ll be interesting to see how Riley handles the off-season. I’ve got this laughing feeling it’s gonna catch every one in Miami off-guard.

Anyways, after the Heat exit, I’ve still got plenty of ex Cats to root for and hold me over enough for UK Football!

I think Maxey is about to get more playing time for the Sixers on the bright side! He has been balling and they need another guard to step up. Maxey is just a natural crafty scorer. I think he becomes the 6th man next year.

I think Maxey will become the steal of his draft class. Depending on how the next series goes, he very well could get more minutes. Next year, I do definitely believe he will be a rotational piece.

And as far as some of us, including me, saying AD looked disinterested, the coach for the Suns may have said:


December 7, 1941 - never forget.

Jimmy didn't want to be in Philly, he always wanted Miami. He asked to be traded to Miami when he was in Minnesota but they didn't want to give up Bam for a guy who gonna be a free agent that they had no guarantees of signing.

I get that but they traded away 2 promising role pieces in Covington and Saric for him and were constantly showing loyalty to him by letting him run the offense in the playoffs. If he wanted to prepare for retirement in Miami he should’ve just said that but instead he constantly talked about coming back. I’m glad he decided it to leave though because he was taking away from Ben and Joel. If he’d rather play with Bam than Embiid......well that says more about him.

I don’t have athletes for heroes because I’m a grown man. You quoted me and started coming at me first. I never said Butler was great, just that people get butthurt because they worship UK guys. I’m not crying about you being angry. I’m making fun of you for getting angry over rich, spoiled basketball players who could care less about someone like you or me. And let’s be honest when we can all watch Butler tell KAT to his face he’s soft as baby s_ _ t and KAT just takes it, he’s soft. Any guys from the 80s- early 00s taking that? No. Now move along little buddy. I’m not spending my day arguing with a kid. Go be angry at your mom and punch holes in your drywall.

You came in this thread guns blazing spewing ignorance about KAT playing video games and not wanting to win. LOL you now acting like you don't care. You cared when you called him butter soft when you clearly don't even watch T-Wolves games. You're soft, thats why you running and crying about me being angry. How dumb do you have to be to trash a beloved UK player with ignorance and false accusations on a UK board and not expect blowback? You're a Uncle Rico fake tough guy living in the 80's, no one buys your schtict.

Stop being soft. How are you gonna call KAT butter soft then start screaming let it go? Weird how some of you love and celebrate this behavior until its directed your way.

My apologies, I was just trying to be a tough guy like Jimmy Butler.

Some of you are extremely fickle. KAT plays the game the way it is supposed to be played, so you call him soft. However, if he responded to Butler the way he most likely would if he was at the park, you would call him a thug.

Heat are having hard time getting a STAR player to pair up with Bam and Butler. Gotta wonder just what it is that’s keeping them all away. Now rumblings are about getting Kawhi to Miami. It’s getting interesting.

Led the league in double doubles and was 2nd in rebounding all while being soft. If only her had your toughness he could make 3 straight conference finals with 2 different teams and 3 different coaches.
I have a feeling that many of these same people on this board will be having the same take on Moreno as they did on KAT......their comments on Moreno wont age well, just like KAT.
