[Barry Jackson] By rule, Butler can’t be considered for one of the All NBA teams if he misses 6 more games this season. “You think I’m worried about some reward? The only reward I give a damn about is those banners over there. That’s all I told Spo, I told Pat… I’m going to help us get” that.

Goddamn I’m crying in Publix. Love this man.
One of the only stars in the league who I’d actually believe when he says that
And this is why this man does well in the playoffs.
And yet we all know that he will inevitably choke and shit the bed in the end of the playoffs as evidenced by him not even getting a shot up in the final 20 seconds of Game 5 in the Finals down by 1 when guarded by 6’4 JAMAL MURRAY and inexplicably turning it over; and then bricking the game tying 3 afterwards. This comes a year after he bricked the go ahead 3 in the final 20 seconds of Game 7 against the Celtics. Unless Herro takes over as the first option and finally plays well/stays healthy in the playoffs, I’m not falling for this playoff Jimmy crap again.
I tend to believe him when he says that.
He doesn’t have All-nba numbers anyways.

Gotta get” that.
Call me crazy but what Butler did with Miami as a playin team was more impressive then all of the KD / Warriors playoff run lol
Love this guy. Works his bollocks off, sacrifices for his teammates, and ups his game for the postseason. Only few in the NBA have a similarly strong mentality.
Bro doesn’t give a fuck about all-NBA lol. Like dude could be averaging the best numbers of his life and be at 64 out 65 games and if the last game was the 2nd night of a back to back, he would DNP
New rule going to save some teams some money
To be fair hes kinda old and close to being cooked. He looked his best during the photo session with the perm on, not on the court.
Stupid Sixers
Passionless Toby
Fultz over Tatum
Omg I can’t even
I have a lot of respect for Jimmy. I just wish the Heat got him the guy they need to legitimately have a chance to win a chip, bc that isn’t happening with this group. They reached their ceiling. Getting dame would have made them the favorites, have to go all in and get one of “those guys”, otherwise they Heat will return to what they were after 06.
I mean, if you want supermax you do need some all-nba teams right?
Spoiler: he also won’t get that “reward”
Also he’s not deserving.
How many times does he have to say or prove it before non Celtics fans believe him
lol he’s not getting either
Safe to say he doesn’t have any bonuses in his contract tied to all-nba honors?
It’s scary that I actually believe him.
I want him to win a title so badly
Love Jimmy but it ain’t happening
If Embiid said this its harassment but since its Jimmy its flirting lmao
Butler is all talk, and it’s so annoying. He gets humbled every year in the playoffs.
Then says some bs about the following year. Rinse and repeat. Butler you ain’t winning shit.
“And fuck your in season tournament”
I’m for sure in the minority but I think it’s fine to care about other things in the NBA than just winning a championship. Like I promise it’s okay to care about and enjoy little things along the way to a bigger goal lol
I don’t like this growing culture of treating things like being an All-Star or being All-NBA as these menial things to scoff at – that’s how you get guys not caring about the All-Star game and ultimately the All-Star game being garbage.
His schtick is getting old. He ain’t winning shit. He can’t ‘will’ his team to shit. He had a cute run last year where he absolutely fell apart but people still want to crown him as somebody that backs up what he says.
Jimmy just talks
Win a championship banner then, that ECF shit do not matter if you really big dawg
Idk how anyone can see this and hate on it. You’re just looking for shit to be upset about at that point. All he wants is the ring and doesn’t give a shit about anything else, how is that not respectable?
