Jimmy Butler has OFFICIALLY Requested a Trade From the Miami Heat... | INSTANT REACTION

[@Jhokher-bd6jy]

Time to move on for Jimmy Butler! 🔥🔥🔥

[@anthonyd_heat]

Still sad times

[@oliversantos-ui7ol]

agree as a heat fan im so sad but it's going to be good for the team get more draft picks f we trade Jimmy and our young guys can really develop into a star

[@Midaz_Mains]

it hurts tho.

[@mosheyuval350]

From Pat Riley

[@framptonhendrix530]

Never ever be Sad about Jimmy leaving! Players Come & Go! He is washed & often injured father time is fast catching up on him, he's got 2 more years and then he's done...Pat is Great he knows Jimmy's body is breaking down! I salute u Boss Pat Riley! ❤😊

[@somebody9785]

Watch Pat stick Rozier to Butler in a trade package to Utah and get the final laugh 😂

[@anthonyd_heat]

Just don’t do it before we play them on Saturday

@anthonyd_heat how epic would that be? 😆

[@thehandsomenerd6719]

Bingo I would be too if I carried them in the playoffs and they get paid but I don’t.

[@Xoltik]

ngl were gonna be better off without him in the long run, not saying he hasnt been a great help but we have young talent that need to improve, i say we go for fox and try to do what the cavs are doing but instead of donovan and garland its fox and tyler i feel like its risky but it could work, and let jimmy, demar, and terry run sum in Sacramento

[@anthonyd_heat]

It’s just who knows how long until we get another player of Jimmy’s caliber

[@Xoltik]

@ might sound crazy but i always believed in jamie, his game reminds me of jimmys but thats just me though, obviously he hasnt been playing the best this season but i feel like that could change in a few years

[@mrwassef]

Not in Pat or Jimmy’s corner. But he did a COMPLETE 180 between yesterday and today with his comments. Went from “I promise you I’m happy here. I will compete and I will win” to “I can’t be happy here, put me anywhere but here”

[@markc1839]

Pat will find out when he wakes up from his nap some time on Friday. He will then do nothing. Jimmy is right in requesting a trade - he knows Pat cannot build a contending roster.

[@anthonyd_heat]

Pat really failed him

[@vivianaaular7333]

Really?!?!😂

[@mosheyuval350]

Pat Riley failed any Heat Legend ever passed here.

[@danspanneut1108]

Jimmys “new role” is BS he’s making spo look bad and take the heat

[@mosheyuval350]

I'm heart broken and done with this Team Front Office. done. Yet another Heat Legend leaves like that. As long as Pat is in charge I will never fully believe in this franchise

[@marqsmith3187]

Mike, Kobe, magic, bird, Isiah, Kareem etc etc would never cheat the game like this! This is why viewership is down….the game is watered down and the players are divas….this mfka is always out and has the nerve to complain about his role….how about you act like the highest paid player on the team which you are and lead your damn team!

[@RobertWatkins-xu9xw]

Jimmy Butler quit

[@C_B212]

This feels more personal than a contract extension, not getting other stars, or even the Pat Riley presser. Feels more than that (probably behind the scenes). The leaks all along may have been coming from Jimmy as well?

[@anthonyd_heat]

definitely a lot going on that we don’t know

[@Vflame219]

Yes trade Jimmy for a star. Jimmy doesn’t play it’s that simple, and we need someone who’s a scorer and plays games. to play alongside Tyler and bam

[@Therantguyyeazy]

Bye🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@RobertWatkins-xu9xw]

Could you ever see Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant quitting on their teammates

[@NiteOwlVibes]

Kobe did quit on his team, go look it up, he asked for trade privately so yes, Jordan no.

[@Kingofleos822]

My homie Ant 😎 keep your head up bro its ok I hate to see you so down like that but I'm with you HEAT NATION FIRST

[@Hammer-eo8vx]

Send him packing - doesn’t fit our young core and he is draining the energy in the building. Find a way to get Fox while sending Butler out.

[@AlexTechie]

Jimmy is not opting out even if the Heat don't trade him.

[@anthonyd_heat]

I can see that

[@MrJar1rad]

I think hero messed up jimmys plans of making heat look extra trash without him

[@somebody9785]

Heat Culture died when Haslem left and we made Bambi Abumyoooo team captain

[@anthonyd_heat]

That’s fair

[@OverZel]

I knew once I saw they were playing memories of Jimmy during the broadcast, they know it's a wrap.

[@juliogonzalez4764]

Jimmy half assing it, and Spo's commitment to smallball was a recipe for disaster. Spo should be held accountable for running another star out of town.

[@pigeonbass11]

At what point is Haywood Highsmith a power forward? Simple. HE'S NOT

[@Hammer-eo8vx]

Starting lineup of Herro, Fox, Bam and Ware

he was great for us, but it clearly is time to move on

[@CASHOUTSHERMTM]

For a ring you need a 1A/1B HE ALWAYS NEVER HAD A 1B

[@wooh777]

I think we should do the Heat Report’s trade with GSW and SAC now, but this sucks man because I liked Jimmy and wanted to see him win a Chip with this team, but if the relationship can’t be fixed then it’s sadly time to move on 💔

[@anthonyd_heat]

Sad times

[@wooh777]

@ could lowkey be a blessing in disguise, now the front office could pick a direction and build around Bam and Tyler, and if we get a Fox or Zion then we could be back in the next couple of years 🔥 (wish he won that chip in 23, but it is what it is at least now he could be happy somewhere else ❤️‍🔥)

[@RobertWatkins-xu9xw]

Jimmy Butler is jealous of Tyler heroes success

[@millennial9835]

Tyler didn’t even shoot much last night that’s the crazy part lol

[@thehandsomenerd6719]

What has Tyler done here better than Jimmy?! Please stfu

[@Rustdot9]

Can we look at teams that have Heat draft picks that Miami can try to acquire back for Jimmy?

[@solracblonde9480]

Naw Anthony, Jimmy loves us so much, allowing us to get the best package for him from any team.

[@anthonyd_heat]

He’d be out there hooping his ass off if that was the case

[@mrwassef]

That is quite the spin. I think he knows that his leverage is pretty low considering just holding him out, and waiting til the summer for him to opt out will allow the team more flexibility is better than almost any realistic trade they could get for him right now.

[@solracblonde9480]

@mrwassef i think there will definitely be suitors for him. Jimmy is still a beast. He just can't do it every night anymore.

[@antdarant1]

If there's a way where you can trade for Fox, do it. I'm utterly sad that the Jimmy era is over and I even have his jersey too which sucks man. Getting Fox will be a fresh new start at least and keep the heat relevant

[@anthonyd_heat]

Fox is our last hope at this point

[@getabuck]

i’m very sad man 😢

[@anthonyd_heat]

I shed a few tears before recording, ngl

[@Rustdot9]

To add insult to injury he made Mickey, Pat and his agent look dumb by shutting down trade rumors and tried to throw Spo under the bus 😪 I can’t blame Tyler he hasn’t been on social media this definitely blind sided him

[@lethaldj13]

watch spo's responses i dont think Spo intended him to stand in the corner. Spo even mentioned something about getting jimmy activated. i dont get why jimmy said this about his role. and dude its 2 games since he last played for miami.

I’m very confused about Jimmy complaining about his role

[@CoolingwitAC]

This sucks smh. I was hoping Jimmy retired here....but he did do the front office a huge favor by not having a preferred destination. Now we can take the highest bid for him. I wouldn't want to send him to Utah, but let's get a couple 1st round picks and a 3 and D guy. We need assets and expiring contracts!!

[@billyd7887]

Losing Bron hurt more but Miami tried. They even got what they didnt want -Kyle Lowry, who wasted three seasons when Jimmy was still in his prime

[@00soysauce]

Pat failed this man. Refused to get him help and ran it back for 6 years

[@javi10872006]

It has nothing to do with a role change. He’s trying to put out a statement

[@billyd7887]

If Im mickey, im asking Riley why he keeps scaring players away - Bron, Wade, Butler. Jimmy shouldn't feel entitled to another contract by Miami. He was paid handsomely for his time and even for not playing full seasons. Riley just doesnt want to commit that many dollars to a 35 year old player that has availability issues.

Thanks Pat! yet another legend player gets so frustrated from your attitude that he leaves sour. Retire!!

Jimmy Butler's jealous of Tyler hero success. Period

[@anthonyd_heat]

I don’t think that’s true

[@thelongnguyens]

Wrong. If anything Jimmy has been the biggest supporter of Herro. Blame it on Pat and the overrated coach Spo, he got his bag now, just wait and take over Pat once he retires.

[@jaya6329]

Its part of it. Herro took the leap after Jimmy said he wanted a star. After Jimmy wanted them to trade herro for that star. That relationship has to be fractured. I think this will Hurt Jimmy a lot reminds me of sprewells presser that ended his career

[@anthonyd_heat]

@ Jimmy also said that he would’ve got himself suspended for standing up for Tyler after the Houston game

[@LeonCook34]

He’s not he’s mad because he took the team to two nba finals and they brought no one in but Terry Rozier. They do nothing but bring in g league players and try to lowball superstars. He pissed Wade Lebron and now Jimmy off when are y’all going to understand Pat should step down

[@dbox9120]

welp boys…. we ain’t gonna see the finals for a while boys……

[@DonaldSherman-hm1tn]

Breakups aren’t usually pretty. This is no different. Jimmy is in the twilight of his career and either wants to contend right away or get Maxed on a legacy deal and Miami is looking to go young/to the future. The more I look back the more that Emo Jimmy stunt feels like where things were really going off the rails a lil. Followed by the “shut your mouth” fiasco. And here we. It seems to be in Miami’s interest to hold out for a great deal or to let this thing ride out and Jimmy wants to be gone asap. Going to get a lot uglier lol.

[@jdmwizzard9730]

Thank god.. jimmy should’ve been gone 2 years ago. Trying to please jimmy has sank this franchise for too long. Time to get younger and build the right way

[@itsyeboi631]

This is not on Jimmy, this is on Pat Riley of not being able to build a legit championship around Jimmy and Bam

@ I just never seen jimmy as a player in that tier of a dwade or even a melo. Jimmy is a great player but was never suppose to be the best player on the roster if you want a championship

[@itsyeboi631]

@ it’s cool if you didn’t see him as that type of player but it is undeniable that if you had someone who knew how to build a roster around jimmy and Bam, they could have won a championship during this build

Nope my brother it is Spo it's Pat. .. First off Heat ran it back with the same Team with a few changes. Spo does not know how to Coach without small ball. Yes Jimmy misses game but the Heat known this is before they got him. Now it's a known fact around the whole NBA that Heat do not believe in loyalty for it's player's. So yes players should have the right to leave them as well

[@thelongnguyens]

Let's look at this subjectively. Wade got to the final 5 times with Shaq, Bosh and LeBron where he was 3/5. Jimmy got to the finals twice with the Heat that had Bam, Goran, Herro, Duncan & old ass Lowry. If you put Jimmy in the team with LeBron, Bosh and Shaq he would have the same number of championship. Again, I'm not suggesting Jimmy is Wade but the Pat failed to get Jimmy a team he needs to get over the hump. Yet you all crown Pat and Spo GOATs. Sad day for the Heat, D Wade deja vu.

Let me just say this. Do you really think Jimmy involved that 4th quarter no shows in the past few years? He's getting old and the smaller and weaker we get, he is more exposed. And if you're the genius you say you are, Pat, you could have turned down Kyle Lowry. No one anticipated Jimmy getting hurt in the play-in, we bought 3 or so years of this culture crap. Honestly, I only bought into it cuz Zo promoted it. You're not weak or cheap, Pat. You're arrogant, even if you're right.
