Golden State Warriors small forward Jimmy Butler signed with the team after his rocky tenure with the Miami Heat. The Warriors played elite basketball after trading for him last year and have only gotten deeper.
“All that noise, all that chaos paid off in a major way”, Butler stated. He mentioned how lucky he is to be part of this phenomenal organization.
This suggests that Butler may not fully acknowledge his role in how those incidents unfolded. Since he was involved in each situation, he could reflect on his actions. This guy wanted out of the Heat so badly and still always finds a way to send a shot towards them. He needs to know when to move on, because the organization has already done so.
Butler even talked about wanting to enjoy playing basketball again, hinting that he was not happy with Miami. He was suspended for seven games due to behavior that hurt the team. The team needed to let him go because he had made things too difficult for everyone.
Butler wanted to be traded to the Phoenix Suns, but the Heat did not give in to what he wanted.
This sounds like a scorned ex who just cannot stop lying when trying to justify herself to the internet for validation. His only agenda was to get paid.
Heat Team President Pat Riley did not want to pay an older star and was thinking about the future. His last season and a half with Miami was nothing but injury-ridden and inconsistent.
