Jimmy does this on a regular basis where he mentally checks out. Riley would be a fool to pay him a max salary because once he has that guaranteed money he'll still request a trade the following season...
Ben Simmons still getting paid is ridiculous...the commissioner should be fired for allowing these guys to make buckets of money for free. They're literally spitting in the faces of the fan base. It's time for a change
A contract is a contract, homie.Would you rather their money not be guaranteed, a la the NFL? Wtf does the Alien, Adam Silver, have to do with teams being dumb enough to offer Ben Simmons a contract?
This is just Jimmy being Jimmy. He gets his feelings hurt and will whine and complain until he gets his way. No matter where he goes, this will happen again
Brother. Jimmy Butler is 35. Giving him another big money contract is a MASSIVE mistake. He already barely plays more than 50 games in a season anyway.
Notice how NBA players today whine and cry the minute they're called out. They'll demand a trade or have the coach fired or even have fans ejected from tne arena any time their enormous egos are bruised. I can't believe how soft these players are now. They refuse to be held accountable and will blame everyone else for their faults. They're all overpaid divas.
Shaq is wrong I'm not paying him based on what lesser players are making you have to run your own team. I'm not running my team based on what another idiot is doing. The teams that overpay are usually the teams that can't anybody to come there so they overpay that's why the bad teams stay bad
He not wrong. 1st off, he's talking about the players stance and you talking about the owners stance. 2 different topics. But u made some good points but not 100 percent relevant for this video/situation
Shaq said other bums are making max money, that just means those GMs are bad ones. Pat Riley is not a bad GM/President, he is one of the top ones. He is not going to pay a player just because he demands to be paid. Butler is a must have player, he is a B+ player. He is just a role player, not good enough to be the Alpha of a team.
I love Pat Riley for what he did for the game. I don’t enjoy some of the arrogance especially when you really haven’t done anything since LeBron left a decade ago. Imagine being a player coasting off your stats from 2014 in 2024
Sorry. Its hard for me to comprehend how someone is unhappy making 50 million in one year. And, throughout his total career has already made over 350 million just NBA money.
@@stonefacedninjathat much money should be worth more than pursuit of piece of mind. These players today are nuts. You got people working their whole lives away for very little wealth and they complaining despite making millions. The players today are psychos.
@@stonefacedninja Its ALWAYS about money in pro sports. Butler wanted an extension last year and Riley didnt give it to him. Now, here's Butler wanting to be traded.
Ohhhhh the NBA this is what happens when you give players all the power they don’t even want to play or play every other day and getting paid a shit load of money but wait .,,,, here’s the best part because of this people are not watching the game
People don't realize how important a person's appearance is to the public. Pat Riley, old school dude has been thru it with Jimmy Butler with his gender bending hairstyles is a distraction. He's had to deal with Dwight, Shaq, Wade, etc and who knows how many players who are not promoting the team the way Pat wants to portray. It's Pat's team. Plus, Jimmy hasn't delivered in the playoffs. Pat says he is 85 but he ain't Jerry Jones. Pat ain't giving no extensions based on PAST success.
It was a short interview but everyone keeps cutting out the part where he explains he has been instructed to play DEFENSE only! He also said he’s doing that but that’s not his game or the way he enjoys playing.
He was eligible for a two-year contract extension worth about $113 million. He turned it down. He’s betting on himself In free agency this year if he turns down his player option. the heat could offer a 243 million dollar contract or 171 million dollar contract with another team
@trutru9018 It's the same in my opinion at regular 9 to 5 jobs. I've left many jobs because of being paid the same as people that can't hold a candle to my work ethic. Jobs should pay on merit. Everyone shouldn't make the same because everyone doesn't put out the same.
Whatever happens please don’t bring Butler to Cleveland, no hate on Jimmy he’s a great player but I’m just content and happy with what the Cavs already have and what they’re doing right now
If you pay these players then most like the team is going to suck because you can’t afford more players but if you don’t overpay for the player then you will be called racist …
Quite frankly, thats just not true. The NBA doesn't have a hard cap. If you are willing to pay the luxury tax, you could give 12 guys max contracts. This is how Phoenix has a payroll of $220 million and the cap is $140 million.
“Get my joy back “. Such a victim. Let’s let him get his way. God forbid he lost his joy ! Awww Heard of Stella getting her groove back? This is Jimmy getting his joy back lol
Butler gotta realize hes not one of those Elites that can carry teams anymore. His ability was his physicality and mid range and both have clearly gone down. These new young guys are taller, faster, and shoot pretty well so it would make more sense to go for them instead of paying Butler
Pat Riley is the one who made Lbj career relevant. Lbj needs to grow up. Everyone is not going to let you ruin their organization by hiring all of your friends and your son. Grow a Basketball IQ and then you would know these things and then post educated info instead of the crap you just spewed.
Die hard Heat fan. I’m not mad that he wants trade. We haven’t built a team around him. We always getting role players. Yea we went to conference championships and finals but realistic do u think we had a chance at anything
There is a lot of negative comments about jimmy. Dont forget he took 2 sorry roster teams to the finals. He is old but feels like he should get paid for what he did for the heat kinda like klay before he went to the mavs. Its just business and if miami cant pay him let him go elsewhere.
What ego players can't GET through their BIG HEADs , U have a BOSS , Its a company , When u decide to hit that button on these stupid phones , U should never talk about team things on the internet. PAT Riley has been a millionaire before you were born Jimmy Just THINK about that for a Minute, Pat Riley don't give a damm about your feelings ,,,, WHAT SO EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!! Just saying JIM BO 😂
Look at all these soft fans mad at a player that done a lot for an organization that wasn’t suppose to make the finals with that team. If he one one of them then this whole predicament would change and everyone wouldve been like he’s the best player in the world. Ungrateful fans siding with Pat Riley are the goofies. One thing I hate more than anything is fake people, especially on this soft azz RUclips
you're the one who sounds soft and deep in his feelings. Jimmy hasn't won anything ever... Riley on the other hand has won plenty. Go look and the mirror and try not to hate yourself
You talk about the top 30 or 40 names in the NBA and Jimmy Butler‘s name does not even roll off the tongue. He’s been in the league this long, he’s never going to win a championship. You don’t win a championship around people with attitude problemsyou don’t wanna work for the heat, your employer, you’re fired. See you at Walmart Monday morning.
Playoff Jimmy is fantastic. I wish Jimmy would go play with Wemby and Cris Paul in San Antonio. Can you imagine what they could do? Of course, I'm a Spurs fan, so I'm biased. LOL
Your right it's been sour,, Charles Barkley should know ,,when it's over actually ,,didn't he try to say it was over ,,,, for a certain,,,NBA player for watching a film in HIS own spare time,,,, were he Said it's over for him and they should keep HIS money 💰 for disrespecting them like that ,,,My daughter is married to ONE of them people LoL,, ✌️ peace it's over Charles we'll never forget about that one,,,,

That’s why the nba is dying! These players getting paid max contracts to be in street clothes.

Jimmy is obviously a terrible team mate ... literally no kne likes playing with him and its obvious
Kahwi got paid cause we was a 2 times finals MVP
Jimmy dont play either. That's the problem. He's a headache.
“If a bum is making 30 I want a 100” . Man I luv Shaq always gives me a good laugh 🤣
Shaq would say that. He"s CRAZY TOO! LOL!
What he said was true.
First take them green braids out
I think he wants to play with the Celtics.
Maybe wants a sponsorship with Monster. But, it is better than that emo look he was trying to rock...that was...special. 😂😂
Facts
He identify himself as a plant.
Yes Rod one step at a time get rid of the nonsense hair
Jimmy does this on a regular basis where he mentally checks out. Riley would be a fool to pay him a max salary because once he has that guaranteed money he'll still request a trade the following season...
Especially after Jimmy said what he said. Trade him with the quickness. Jimmy's brain is on EEEEEEEE.

This is just Jimmy being Jimmy. He gets his feelings hurt and will whine and complain until he gets his way. No matter where he goes, this will happen again
That’s why Butler been on 20 teams lol
Nigga he was on 4 teams💀
Not even, stop it!
U don’t wanna pay him, he don’t wanna be there! This is easy work
Easy breakup let’s see where pat riley ships him.. probably to Cleveland💀
The CBA makes it more difficult

Jimmy is the problem. Everywhere he goes it’s some type of issue.
Talk is cheap, trade that weirdo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They about to send him to the nets 😂

I have to concur with shaq. Bums making more money isn't cool.
What do the numbers say? Averages per game this year between them.
@trutru9018 It's the same in my opinion at regular 9 to 5 jobs. I've left many jobs because of being paid the same as people that can't hold a candle to my work ethic. Jobs should pay on merit. Everyone shouldn't make the same because everyone doesn't put out the same.
They brought in his best friend Lowry. Take some personal responsibility there Jimmy.
They don't want another aging Rodman
That was why Shaq left Orlando; strictly comparing salaries. He knows PR don't roll like that.
Pat Riley owes that man a lot for covering for his terrible GM skills
To Shaq on lesser players getting paid more. Just because one idiot jumps off a bridge doesn’t mean we all should too.
Shaq has the most stunted logic ever. He argues like a jealous 10 year old boy.
Trade him he getting up there anyhow GET US YOUNG HUNGRY GUY
💯💯💯💯💯💯
The young dudes are trash also
Jimmy was hungry af and almost single handedly got them a ring, what are you talking about
Thinks he's Caesar? 😂😂😂
Wasn’t that two years or more when Pat called him
Out??
Shaq is right, there's bums making more than Jimmy.
It's all about Jimmy. He doesn't want to play.
Remember when Kobe cried to leave LA? This gave me Kobe vibes. 😅😅
Whatever happens please don’t bring Butler to Cleveland, no hate on Jimmy he’s a great player but I’m just content and happy with what the Cavs already have and what they’re doing right now
Philly should have never let him leave….so stupid.
I wish the MIA Heat would return to the Championship days with Jimmy Bulter. Jimmy needs help, and I hope he gets it.

@ but they do have a limit on the lux tax, correct?
Its the same thing they did with Wade back then. Riley will never pay Heat's stars.
And Jimmy Squared up with Spolstra mid game. It's over for Jimmy Butler in Miami.
When. What game is this ?
Jimmy doesn't win the big games and he is getting older. He isn't worth a big contract. He needs to be a 2nd or third option on a contender.
“Get my joy back “. Such a victim. Let’s let him get his way. God forbid he lost his joy ! Awww

Lebron was a nobody.

Swear I saw a clip of him saying he would never hoop for Miami then saying he never wanted to be traded from Miami 😂😂🤦🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️
This foolishness is why we’ve stopped watching the games, I mean…really?😢💔
Riley is real… now he has no real star
I don't care if Paul George balls out at all. He should not have gotten that deal at 34 years old.
Get the 55 mil then go free agent. No big deal.
These guys that are hurt every year want top money trade his ass
Shout Out Selftalk
Salute 🫡
None of these players over 30 with no rings or a even a conference final should get a max contract or even above 10 million hell 5 million
I hope Jimmy goes to the Warriors, Clippers, Spurs or Lakers
Pat been wanting to son Jommy ever since the comments about they woulda won a series ifbhe wasnt injured, and Butler not going for it, I respect that
