I’m like David I cared I felt like they was mocking jimmy rather than giving flowers

[@davidriedy5977]

same

[@JohnEsco305]

That's what I said

[@aubreysellssofl]

Now Jimmy has to make Playoff Jimmy an offical thing…bc that commercial was blasphemous!!!

[@Mikehunt50]

There was playoff pg13 before there was playoff jimmy. So should pg13 sue too, or better then that playoff rondo before him. I mean seriously now you guys are trying to claim it as yours when in fact it aint.ain't. Maybe rondo and pg13 should sue jimmy.

[@big_vic305]

Jimmy really should sue whoever made that commercial

[@Mikehunt50]

Seriously maybe pg13, and rondo should sue jimmy. You guys and claiming things that aren't yours. It was the media that started it, and not jimmy. It was a thing long before jimmy.

[@Andrew-un5jj]

And they didnt even use playoff jimmy in that commercial

[@robingipps7192]

That is what makes it even more blatantly obvious that they are biased against the Heat. Not to show Jimmy at the end of that stupid commercial shows how they disregard Jimmy and the Heat. Both ESPN and TNT commentators are also blatant with lack of knowledge of what Miami has dealt with, having countless injuries to important players throughout the entire season.

[@Rustdot9]

I’m with David. Felt like they were trying to force feed big market players at the same playoff tier of jimmy, that jimmy dismantled senselessly last year Felt like a cheap imitation

[@davidriedy5977]

💯

[@JohnEsco305]

Dude drop the ball...

[@QSAV92_]

That playoff whoever commercial lowkey left a bad taste in my mouth.. i hope jimmy goes off on all of them!! Show them the real!! 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@ervincuarteros735]

Butler is doing this since his time in Bulls.

[@evannatland5151]

THEM USING THE BUCKS CELTICS AND KNICKS IS FUCKING CRAZY BRO. We better go scorched earth these playoffs

[@therealdarrell282]

What changes if you play Denver again? Jimmy would the Jim Kelly of the NBA. You want to get hyped over going 0-3 in the NBA Finals with Butler?

[@robinshaul4069]

He is gonna soar and win ,book it!!! Miami heats beautiful Miami princess 👸💄💋

[@MG-yj6lo]

What did Brunson do in Dallas? He was good, he wasnt the main man in that ECF run

[@JohnEsco305]

Agree 10000% He just D*** riding him .... He not a Heat fan

[@BillDoa]

I'm with David that's our thing 🔥🔥🔥

[@jammer9941]

Adding playoff before someones name didn't originate with Jimmy.... paul george got called playoff p as early as 2018. Rajon Rondo got called playoff rondo like as early as 2010 who btw also didn't like being called that and denied its a thing. Jimmy is just the latest to be called that....

[@jasonpauda4204]

Short memories people have

[@Andrew-un5jj]

If Tyler wants to start being the face of the heat tomorrow is your chance

[@gsheverything_2716]

I'd sue their azzes about that commercial

[@ceopoet]

Playoff Jimmy better be a thing he don’t do nothing during the season that’s why we in the play-in now …

[@Nunyabiznessboi]

That and the pseudo first scoring option missed 42 games, 3rd option completely went soft, front office didn’t make any significant changes and the conference got better

[@floridaboy5606]

Heat and 76ers both top 4 seeds if not for injuries

[@giovannimigliore8220]

This grown man crying about the nba not giving his favorite player his "flowers"

[@shanecarnegie6157]

If Duncan gets hot it’s over

[@floridaboy5606]

I think Terry will be back for game 1 of the playoffs he's our Xfactor in these playoffs

[@johngonzalez5605]

I’m with David, Wes is a fraud they stole Jimmys thing. NBA got 0 creativity

[@LockedOnHeat]

Being called a "fraud" in the comments of my own show because I didn't lose my shit over a commercial? Maybe I shouldn't be surprised by the internet in 2024. We can respectfully disagree but I ain't a fraud. - WG

[@jasonpauda4204]

The whole playoff player thing didn't start with Jimmy

[@Mikehunt50]

​@@jasonpauda4204it didn't it started long before jimmy, and it was the media's thing.

[@dchew001]

the problem is it's not imitation; it's thievery. my conspiracy theory is JIMMY also took a video, but because we are not currently in the playoffs he probably got edited out. no shot they picked tatum of all people to start this "playoff _________" if jimbo wasn't available

[@mattjg74]

If we had Dame we wouldn’t be in this situation again, this is literally our ceiling lol. Gotta get it out the mud the hard way

[@ndnow12]

I'd be shocked if Delon doesn't get minutes, if there was ever a game we could really use him it's this one where we need a guard who can stay infront of maxey.

[@Ace-Clif]

Caleb and highsmith

[@daltond190]

Playoff P was a thing before playoff Jimmy

[@evannatland5151]

Playoff p is a fucking joke playoof Jimmy is the real deal som

[@jasonpauda4204]

PG gave himself that name. Playoff Rondo was before both of them

[@luisquinteros7492]

Wayoffff P is the thing

[@ramseywedlaw6795]

I just seen it and there wrong for making that commercial. Now I hope Jimmy see this and go on another run

[@LockedOnHeat]

This is a fair and reasonable take. If anything, maybe the NBA just gave Jimmy some bulletin board material. - WG

[@ramseywedlaw6795]

@@LockedOnHeat even if they did Jimmy is going to go off for 30 or 40 points tonight

[@user-bp1vu4dz6b]

I get what he's saying but to say an NBA starter has no talent but jumping is a little disrespectful....Go Heat

[@angelofuentespina6186]

The way i saw him still not yet

[@megadriver23]

Jason Tatum put 50 pts in a game 7 if you didn't know it

[@davidriedy5977]

There's this interesting dynamic where the media asks Jimmy if Playoff Jimmy is a thing, Jimmy denies it but everyone doesn't believe it. You know, I think the NBA could really run with something like that. Maybe they should make a commercial about this dynamic. Oh wait... 🤡🤡🤡

[@billylittle7229]

Yeah the girly boy takes half the season off while other players may miss a game or two he should go off! Unfortunately it won’t be enough this year!😂😂😂😂😂☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶☔️☔️☔️☔️☠️☠️☠️☠️

[@jasonpauda4204]

​@billylittle7229 girly boy? Why are you hate watching another teams channel. Another example of the Heat living rent free in bostons head

[@Mavrock954]

IM SICK OF THE MUD!! Lmaoo why not prioritize getting easy buckets and SPACING damn!!!!!

[@angelofuentespina6186]

I dont know tatum if when he get mature

[@angelofuentespina6186]

But still hes not able to to bring heat to primise land

[@topherklimek2259]

Heavy "get off my lawn!" energy

[@megadriver23]

And we are not going anywhere this team has run its course

[@shawncain882]

The Heat need playoff Bam and Herro. They're younger, and it's their turn to level up in the playoffs

[@angelofuentespina6186]

May somebody will believe jimmy if he git hes cham

[@MiamiHeatHype]

Kelly and macey … Alll Are Available … this heat culture is methodical and weird … poor sixers they are sooo humble but think they got us DELON !!! everyone’s available but watch who you trust … we need spacing … that means locksmith 🔐 I think leave Jaime out unlesss it’s an emergency and “ listen , listen , listen “ … face lock maxey and especially Kelly humble jnr

[@Averagedre]

14:24 Tatum puts up better numbers in every stat than butler head to head career Tatum always has better numbers than “Playoff Jimmy” lol

[@Nunyabiznessboi]

2-1 should be 3-0 in the playoffs. When it matters Jimmy has gotten the best of him AND Brown while carrying an inferior team each time. And if we talking averages, Tatum is ONE point better than butler in their 34 total games against each other including playoffs.

[@Averagedre]

@@Nunyabiznessboi its about to be 2-2 please lose to Philly tonight so we can get yall round 1

[@Averagedre]

@@Nunyabiznessboi yall gonna be in cancun by 4/29 😂

TATUM JUST TURNED 26... HE'S WAY AHEAD OF SCHEDULE. JIMMY BETTER BE PLAYOFF JIMMY, HE'LL BE 35 REALLY SOON... WITH NO TITLES... UNLESS HE WINS THIS SEASON

[@dchew001]

IS HE AHEAD OF SCHEDULE? WHERE ARE TATUM'S TITLES? HE'S BEEN IN SUPER TEAMS HIS WHOLE CAREER EVER SINCE HE WAS A ROOKIE

[@Averagedre]

@@dchew001what superteams? only 2018 and this year Tatums rookie year Kyrie and Gordon were injured and he still took them to the ecf

[@jasonpauda4204]

​@@Averagedrehis teams have been loaded with contending talent. Gotta commend Boston on continuously putting out contending rosters yr after yr for the last decade or so, but even contenders have match-up issues and mental lapses

[@Averagedre]

@@jasonpauda4204 for sure but theirs a big difference between contending rosters and super teams we call teams like Minn OKC NY contending rosters which Tatum has had majority of his career vs super teams like KD GSW Heatles Boston big 3 2024 Celtics

[@jasonpauda4204]

@@Averagedre idk if I can call this year's team a super team. Super teams have multiple current or former real top 10 players. The new cba basically makes teams like that impossible to pay for

So sirry i do t believe him

Definitely don’t like the new intro. I miss the old one already

Miami is still not in the playoffs

[@miamitesla5500]

Add is awful. They used Jimmys motto and he’s not even in. Ridiculous.

[@HarvelBrooks]

Thank you David, I told you all Wes is a huge hater Of Jimmy Butler.....Wes your podcast will fail!

[@LockedOnHeat]

I hope not, it’s my podcast, too - DR

[@shanecarnegie6157]

That man Wes is a clown definitely unsubscribed

[@seabass9043]

Gross that you're on the side of the NBA on this Wes. Complete BS without Jimmy being in it

[@LockedOnHeat]

I'm on nobody's"side" I just don't think I need to get upset over a commercial

[@cosmicquest7746]

Wes is a hater of Jimmy Butler. I knew he was a fraud. What do you expect from a member that comes from the Warriors' media base.

[@LockedOnHeat]

Born and raised a Heat fan in Broward county and been covering the Heat since 2013. Started this podcast in 2014. Covered the Warriors for a few years in between because it was the right career choice. But would love to know how you think I'm being a "hater" and a "fraud" because I didn't get upset over a lazily-made commercial. - WG

[@donjohnson3195]

PPL DON'T COUNT THE BUBBLE, BECAUSE IT WAS A 5 MONTH BREAK, THEN THEY PLAYED, AT A YMCA GYM, WITH NO FANS... THAT'S NOT NBA PLAYOFF BASKETBALL

[@floridaboy5606]

Heat and 76ers both top 4 seeds if not for injuries

[@giovannimigliore8220]

Not trying in the regular season and then trying to turn it on in the playoffs isn't a positive maybe if he tried all year they wouldn't need to try and win a championship from the 8th seed

[@mjk9674]

Miami pathetic again, just like all season. Butler will be traded this summer
