[@Frank-hv7xj]

I think to some extent, Jimmy has earned some superstar rights. You're definitely right that Jimmy is no superstar, and he does play arrogantly at times, which is wrong on Jimmy side, but where I think Jimmy has the earned the right to make demands to an extent is that he's the best player on whatever team he is on, mainly after his Bulls time. TimberWolves; Kat and Wiggins weren't winning anything when Jimmy was there, and while not Jimmy isn't as talented as those two, his drive made him better than those two. 76ers; probably the best situation because he was 2nd behind Embiid, but 76ers front office was too scared to "handle" Jimmy and chose a lesser talent in Tobias Harris. Miami; Jimmy is arguably their best player, which he has carried them into the playoffs and finals. Jimmy has admitted he isn't the most talented or gifted. So, being on teams where he's arguably the best player that can also significantly help in winning. In my opinion, he does deserve *SOME* rights to make demands. Also, as an not rich person, I won't knock anyone wanting to get paid, especially those who have risen from the bottom 🤷‍♂️

PG took a calculated risk at age 34. He declined an extension and played in 74 games, the most for him since 2018. He could have gotten hurt and lost most of what he got. Jimmy has security for next season in a 52M option which PG didn't have. If Jimmy wants to go the PG route, he would need to play, excel, and hit UFA.

Screw all these millions they're making too, players have gotten too much power and money over the years and look where it's lead to. They need to redo how much they get paid and if they miss games they lose money or get suspended, and the amount of 3s being jacked up is ridiculous there needs to be a ceiling of how many they shoot before they turn into 2s or something because right now it's a 3 point contest back and forth for most games and the plays are virtually the same on every team it's gotten pretty damn boring to watch most of them, I have league pass for free and I stopped watching and started mostly watching highlights so I can scrub through if it's a 3 point contest.

Plus Magic was giving you 10-12 apg. Also hate to do the win share argument..but Jimmy only had one year in Miami with a win share over 10. Magic had a win share over 10 every season of his career except 2. Just different levels to being HIM.

Reality is this: Butler dragged a sorry ass team to 2 finals 3 conference finals in 4 years. Nobody as a lonely number one option with no help has done that. The closer we got was 2019 Dame when he dragged the blazers to conference finals. You all are just so used to mediocre "stars" like Embiid, PG, Ben Simmons, Zion that you think Butler belongs in the same category. Reality: he doesn't! Despite a sleepy old man in Pat Riley not giving him help, dude still took Miami to the highest of places. So give him the respect he deserves. EVERY FINALIST besides 2018 Lebron had a co-star or a very solid team to get there or win it all. Butler had...accending Bam, washed Lowry, washed Dragic, injured Terry Rozier, the remains of Kevin Love, inconsistent Tyler Herro and role players who are competent in the Heat system but suck in other teams like Caleb Martin, Strus and Gabe Vincent.

That Jimmy for KD trade gonna hit

[@francisco9679]

jimmys an individual and you dont have any clue of how conversations with Pat went down, Pat doesnt seem like the type of guy who cares about his players feelings, its a bussiness but have that same standard for the players. At the end of the day all of us would be doing whats best for us.

Phoenix is insane to even consider it.

[@aztn19]

As much as I’d love for Jimmy to go to Gotham to reignite the Knicks/Heat rivalry of the 90s, I don’t see Miami trading before the deadline let alone to a likely playoff opponent. Then again, I’m ready to see my Knicks be title contenders again, and a team-up of Jimmy Buckets with Brunson & KAT could be kinda “super” as teams go…hey I can dream, can’t I?? 😅🤔🙃

[@wiltthestilt2468]

Would poison a solid team...dont need him

[@mrTheCRIMINOLOGIA]

No one have loyalty to the game , they only have is love for the money ,, 😂😂😂😂 they all should get pay the same ,

[@JohnDoe-gf5he]

Jimmy Butler vs. Pat Riley is equivalent to a modern soft diva, meeting an oldschool hard no bs Godfather.

[@And.One.Hoops1]

Lol pretty much

[@gabrielesparza2952]

He’ll probably just cry for another trade if he did get sent anywhere 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@dennisruga8603]

100% true he ain't franchise player just watch the NBA finals of Miami and Denver he's predictable when it's crucial time and there's just 3secs left and it's and he has the ball you lose.

[@canttakeanymore]

He's been hurt/off the floor 20% of the time the last 5-6 years. Put that together with his attitude you lay out here, it's understandable why Pat R smacked him down. He happens to have an ego and track record too.

[@darthvader9884]

2 finals appearances as the franchise star.. yeah he had a good damn. Career..

[@richardnelson26]

I see it’s the easy trend to blame Jimmy for everything. Miami has failed Jimmy, not the other way around.

[@doriandenard5846]

Let me tell y'all what the Heat is going to do: keep him. Send him home if necessary or buy him out. Riley has the advantage and non of the assets to make a trade, especially to the Suns for Beal because they know Beal is a grifter. Jimmy just feels like he's owed more, but Pat doesn't pay for past performances unless you're loyal to the franchise. Look at his track record. He's unrelenting. He's always been FOR player economic empowerment, if and only if it serves him. He's a former player himself and he sees how the money AFFECTS these players: the money, life changing money CHANGES them. No matter the sport. And we've seen countless examples of this. So Pat doesn't care. He'll wait him out and let him walk. Pick up your 50 mil and hit the door. Pat is like the old school Mafia Don Joe Profaci: absolute loyalty and NO money for his best guys. Would rather pay the loyal soldiers OK money and keep their EGOs in check.

It's been confirmed MIami is trading butler to the Raptors!

[@fritzbautista1141]

can the heat just move on? let him walk. Miami don't have to do anything. as a fans, we thank you but can we all just moved on?

[@Hustlekids]

Yesssssss I’m so glad u said it bulls central or shoos i say hoops 😂 but thanks cuz i liked the first 3 year bulls jimmy he wasn’t this cocky 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@Allencha1111]

The Antonio Brown diva syndrome 😂

[@davidn5334]

JIMMY IS "A LIST" . . . IS HE "BOX OFFICE" . . . Ageing yes, aggravated yes, but . . he has usage, he should be moved, & take a strong level !!!!

[@paris5831]

Age and understanding ur value is what i feel he’s going through

[@Hicks-g1m]

Jimmy is still good but he's not worth a max contract and should take less money if he wants to win more on a contending team

[@roneteus]

Jimmy might benefit from a visit to the AITA subreddit.
