Damn
He sprained his cock?!
I’ll miss playoff jimmy, last year playoff run was a thing of beauty.
Damn that sucks, and I feel like Butler has been banged up a bit over these past few years. Dude is still a beast but I do wonder how much he has left in the tank.
Shams vindicated.
Damn. Are the heat just out now or can they really compete without playoff Jimmy?
Yeah, but they have the Dame package.
Celtics gonna victimize whomever their opponent is.
And in typical Bulls fashion we will get blown out by 30 tomorrow
My bulls have been gifted a path to the playoffs. They better win.
Heat being counted out? Now I expect them to beat the Bulls honestly
Fuck man
we’re going to see the doctor later today and it just blows my mind that somebody that wasn’t in the arena has somehow come up with a medical timeline
so Shams was right all along, the agent was just pissed off
Good thing they got Lillard last summer.
That fucking blows. Everyone was counting on heat to at least challenge Boston
Thank fuck this season is over. Just an absolute shit show I can’t wait to forget. Rest the starters, field the g leaguers and let the bulls win. No point in risking another injury, might as well get a slightly better draft pick
fade me fam
Well the 1-8 matchup just got a hell of a lot less interesting
I really enjoy seeing Jimmy in the playoffs. This sux ass.
Well, at least you guys had a chance. Enjoy the offseason.
Even if the Heat get thru to the Celtics, there is little chance of a long series. Conversely there is no way Celtics fans will be able to take pleasure in a series win against such a Heat team. It can’t count as revenge.
I’m hearing Spo just picked up Paul Dano and turned him into a 40/15 guy.
They’re making it to the finals arnt they? Then they will say only if jimmy was healthy and it will give em hope for next year
I can’t believe people get sources and relay those sources to the public only to be 100% validated 6 hours after I’m writing this extremely angry post
Why do pro athletes and agents do this runaround for no fucking reason? “Why do you think I might have a broken finger just because the bone is sticking out the side? We cannot possibly even speculate until I see a doctor”
Man so it may actually be the bulls vs Boston?
Last year Butler carried Herro-less Heat team to the finals. This year it will be Herro’s turn to carry the team without Butler.
Awful news. I don’t care we are playing the Heat, we all love Jimmy. This sucks
As a Zion fan, I feel for him
Don’t matter what he said before, I’m with him on this moment
Wish him nothing but a fast recovery. Come back better than ever Jimmy!
Can’t tell whether them not disclosing the grade is a good sign or a bad one
And Caruso also got injured. Its crazy how much injury luck Celtics had this season, to be fair they were the ones that needed it the least.
But his agent said it wasn’t that! He lied to us! What a bad guy!
As a Bulls fan, Jimmy fan, Bulls Jimmy fan, I’m just hear to say sorry for your loss NBA friends.
Damn that sucks. I wanted to sweep them healthy.
Good thing his agent had a tantrum on the radio this morning.
Jimmy is the dog of all dogs for finishing that game
They’re celebrating in the streets of Boston
Everything lining up for the Celtics this year. I wonder how they blow it
that really sucks. basically a season ending injury given the speculation was “multiple weeks”.
hopefully he comes back just as good next season.
Sprain is better than a tear, yes?
Butler about to pull a Willis Reed and play through his injury.
Probably won’t in this day and age but always find it amazing Thurman Thomas tore his ACL in college, never got surgery, and went on to have a HOF NFL career as a running back.
Dang Bro Jimmy Buckets 🪣😓
So Miami back to the finals confirmed
Bill Simmons edging in his podcast booth
A damn shame for nba fans all around.
I need to see jimmy’s agent’s response to this
Injured heat, injured bucks, injured Sixers, injured Knicks, damn east fell like flies 😂 Celtics really gonna cakewalk to the finals fully healthy
