[@DenniDownBad]

As a heat fan, I don't know why Pat Riley is messing this up the way that he is. Jimmy came in as a free agent when nobody wanted to sign with us during the whole "league of duos" trend was going on. He took us to 2 finals series when we were nothing but dark horse candidates/ "dangerous loomers" in the playoffs and now Pat punishing him for requesting a trade when anyone with a pair of eyes and common sense can see that NO help is coming to change this team into at least a LEGIT contender is absolutely infuriating as a Heat fan. Even from a business/front office standpoint, why not trade him? Try to get something back for him instead of letting him walk in the off-season for nothing at all. And you know he's not going to resign, not after this treatment. Hell, if the literal FACE OF THE HEAT FRANCHISE in Dwayne Wade didn't resign in 2016 after getting lowballed, what the hell do you think Jimmy is going to do? As a fan, I'm glad Jimmy came to the Heat. Gave me some memorable playoffs moments I'll probably never forget and whether he walks in the off-season or is traded I just want to say Thank You.

[@BOnYTB]

I think they’d be happy to trade him if they could get any value for him. They should’ve more seriously explored trades this offseason though, bc making a trade in season for a guy making almost 50M is very hard. The whole apron thing makes it way harder than it used to be. The only trades that make even a tiny bit of sense involve stacking up a bunch of players contracts to trade for Jimmy, or one bad contract like a Beal. I think the best offer they’ll get would be like Beal and a 2031 1st round pick or something, and that’s if Beal would waive his NTC which I’m unsure if he would. Beal and Herro isn’t a good fit, and they’d be taking on some bad money all for one (albeit valuable) pick. They really made the biggest mistake when they traded for Terry Rozier. That made it to where they no longer have the assets for a star or near star trade package. Terry never made sense on this team either. I think they’re kinda stuck. Unless someone comes out of the woodwork, idk what they can even do. Also, Jimmy would be in an awkward spot if they don’t trade him. Regardless I don’t think any team is going to want to give him the max for 2 more years. Him opting out is tough bc nobody that makes sense will have the FA $ to sign him. The only way I truly see him getting an extension is if he opted out of the 52.4M, and took a lot less in 25-26. Something like 38.1M (so 14.3M less) then took 5% raises off that. That’d be 3y/120M.

[@chef.ramesses]

Don't forget that Jimmy needed pat, just as bad as the heat needed Jimmy. Jimmy's reputation was in the gutter when he came to the heat.

[@InV1sible9688]

I don't disagree with what you said. I think Pat Riley was thinking of trading Jimmy Butler as well. But i think the optics and the antics of Jimmy is very bad publicly. JImmy also didn't need to say it to the press or kinda put little effort on the court and be a distraction to his team. He coulda just played optimal and he woulda been traded. No need to say im not happy here and etc and etc.

People defending Pat Riley’s lack of moves during the Jimmy Butler era are so ignorant. Just like players eventually become washed, so do GMs and presidents. Pat has to face the backlash too because he’s so complacent with a roster that everyone and their mom knew wasn’t going to beat the upper echelon of teams. Jimmy needed help and he didn’t do shit. Tyler Herro has only scored over 20 points in the playoffs 3 times since 2020, which is terrible for a guy who’s biggest strength is his scoring.

[@cdeleon3494]

Facts... Riley needs to step up or retire cause this Godfather thing ain't gonna work no more. They are lucky that dwade influenced jimmy in coming to miami. If anyone noticed, no star has been coming to miami ever since. Smh

[@cole4939]

​@weswith360s this again falls on Pat, whose last successful draft pick was Herro in 2019. He hasnt drafted well or done smaller trades to keep attractive assets in half a decade, so no teams are going to want to trade big stars to the Heat who have no one and won't part with their best young asset

[@konzza]

​@@cole4939mid-team hasn't got early picks. Maybe Heat could had traded Jimmy 2-3 years ago, when he still had some trade value to tank for early picks, so this wouldn't be an issue. Isn't part of the "Heat culture" about turning undrafted players and unvalued picks into usefull players?

[@alieucamara8525]

So far the most fair analysis i have heard. Clearly butler is ridiculous and pathetic saying he needs his mojo back while earning 50 mil per year, but also, you are the first to mention pat being stuborn and arrogant and costing miami in the long run. Imo they actually overachieved last few years and at some point they will recieve the other end of the stick, even if they make more competitive team.

They didn’t lose the Celtics rivalry if anything the Celtics catching up!

[@chrissennfelder7249]

It's simple. They should have traded him when there was a real market for him. I get that you don't trade your best player after you've just made the finals. But not trading him in the offseason of 2024 was a huge mistake. This era of the Heat is over, it's time to rebuild around Herro. Not cashing in Butler might become really costly down the line, especially if Bam keeps playing like a bum offensively. That being said, Jimmy also handled the situation terribly. Be a fucking pro and go to work. Forcing your way out by playing like ass is not a good look. Certified diva behavior.

[@dannyllerenatv8635]

Running back this team would never result in a chip, and I say this as a Heat fan. It was so frustrating to see them flop several straight offseasons while everyone else in the East got better despite the clear-cut flaws. I do understand there's a cap, luxury tax, and contract constraints. However, historically, at least, Riley THRIVES when there are challenges to the cap and contract constraints or any unfavorable position to land other players.

[@jasonnapper6076]

With the heat under riley they are gonna forever stick as a lower seed that sticks closer to .500 every season. Only times they really pushed above is when the lucked out and got a star. Riley needs to drastically improve his roster construction,but they refuse to trade away certain young players to get a star.

Jimmy doesn't actually deserve to win if he told the Nuggets not to trade for him. Denver has the salary to match and a player the Heat would consider a great fit next to Bam (MPJ) and Jimmy would essentially return to his role on the 76ers where he's playing off a generational big man alongside Jamal Murray. if he insists on playing out the last leg of his prime on that superteam frankenstein abomination in Arizona, then he's not the winner he thinks he is.

I don't quite understand why Butler asked to be traded preferably to Warriors, Rockets or Mavs when he clearly doesn't care much about regular season. The Western Conference, where teams with a positive record might even be held out of the Play-in, doesn't seem exactly like the right place to relax until the playoffs come around.

[@BenjaminDHarrison]

8:15 Seriously Dom? You didnt expect the Front Office of the Heat to take Jimmy making his own trade talks as offensive? If anybody is gonna tell a player "I'm paying you $50 million dollars. You do what I say." It would be Pat Riley. Conduct unbecoming. Conduct detrimental. Its awesome. Jimmy is gonna cash zero cheques while he considers the consequences of being cute with the Heat. This is a good thing. Brooklyn couldnt stop KD or Kyrie. Lakers cant stop LeBron. Philly cant stop Joel and couldn't stop Harden. Finally someone to stop these superstar trade demands that are destroying teams. The Lakers, the Pelicans, the Nets, the Suns. All teams twilight hours if they saw the sun at all.

Nah pat is just too full of himself too even at the expense of something great and dynastic. What did he surround jimmy with all these years? Duncan Robinson? G leaguers?

All the years jimmy not been complaining, only this time cause of his contract and if pat really put effort in surrounding jimmy with the proper help then maybe he'll play and shut up

[@OGAshton]

This argument doesn’t work because Jimmy was by far their best player and got them to the finals twice. He always left it all out on the court but even Miami fans knew a trade had to be made to get them over the hump. Sure he took a bad shot at the end of the 2022 Celtics series but that doesn’t change the fact he had almost no help. They couldn’t have won a chip with just Jimmy and a bunch of g leaguers.

Morals for what? Just don't gamble then lol

[@raidersofsteak2227]

@ of course but you can still make money without selling out and promoting a horrific service, bet he wouldn’t promote a cigarette company, but it’s no better than gambling is

@@AB-sw4kb lol it’s not the easy man many people are addicts and can’t simply stop…they all start somewhere and promoting gambling only makes it easier for people to fall into gambling addiction

[@BallPlayer17127]

I don’t see the issue, this guy paying u millions of dollars, unless he telling u something immoral, unethical or illegal , he your boss, if he telling u guys to come in 2 weeks early or to keep your mouth shut then I don’t see why that so hard

The NBPA/Player empowerment has been a net negative for the league and product on the court imo. Just my hot take.

[@AfricanH3ro]

Yea its kind of hard to argue that player empowerment hasn't been a negative for the league overall even though I agree with it ideologically

[@kinghunternick1365]

@@AfricanH3ro It's one of those things where it sounds great in theory, but horrible in practice. Especially for a business.

deep dive for nuggets please?

I say let jimmy go. Get that cap space and you wont have to trade any core players away either. Cap space is important especially with this apron stuff now

Pat Riley has really let him down and disgruntled many stars

Pat Riley drops the ball during the finals with the heat that’s his criticism he sucks

[@troykilby5394]

It’s 2-2 and When jimmy was on the court it’s 2-1 Miami you have not won this rivalry

[@croatiankid6595]

I m not shocked at all by this jimmy thing cause he usallly leaves a franchise on a sour note lol

[@toppseasonszn2342]

Heat Culuture is not based on Loyalty , AT ALL , look at how pat riley did D.Wade , No matter what you have done for the organization Pat Riley will not take care of aging stars , but potential free agents and stars in the age range 29-32 to see this, the lakers Overpayed kobe his last 2 seasons, but he deserved it amd other stars see if they have success with the lakers they will be taken carenof later, you got to be crazy to go play for pat, the worst part about him not takig care of Wade , is Wade took paycuts for years of his prime and Pat didnt pay him back , you got to be crazy to go there in yourate 20s
