    After listening to some of these podcasts i always question how much of this is legitimate. Like are these guys being truthful or are they embellishing and taking things out of context to sound relevant.

  2. Is is really Butler’s fault someone fell on his leg

  3. dameplsrunfromgrind

    Ah yes the guy who got you to 2 Finals and a conference finals in 5 years is the guy to blame 👍

    If it weren’t for Jimmy himself specifically demanding to go to the Heat back in 2019, the Heat would’ve been in a dark place

    FWIW, the Heat don’t really leak and when they do, it’s full of shit. “They were glad the Bulls picked Rose and not the guy they targeted (and tried desperately to trade out of that pick”. Some fans are tired of Jimmy but they will be back once he slaps another team in the playoffs.

    Pat doing fuck all in the offseason doesn’t help

  6. I can’t wait til there’s actual basketball to discuss again.

    We all know how tight lipped Pat is. Bottom line is, he holds Jimmy to a high standard, as he should. It’s up to Jimmy to live up to that standard and his own standard. I don’t think he did last season and he may admit that, although he still had a good season. He has to play up to that standard and take the court, otherwise it will force tough decisions come next offseason.

    I doubt this is really true. Jimmy has honestly overachieved with the Heat. If anything Pat Riley is the biggest person to blame because the Heats main issue is personnel. They could’ve gotten Harden for Tyler Herro.

    This is not it, chief

    Butler has been a Miami legend, overachieving almost every year

    Not saying it’s for sure but I can’t imagine Pat Riley vibing with the whole “regular season doesn’t really matter,” mentality thats kinda taken over

    I personally like Jimmy’s flair and charisma but his unavailability has been problematic. A d that’s what happened. When Jimmy got injured, Spo’s reaction was basically ” bro, really? We just gave a sabbatical to relax and you get injured?”. Hopefully Jimmy comes out with guns blazing. I want to feel excited again for the regular season

  12. One way or the other, everywhere jimmy goes he eventually rubs the team or management the wrong way…

    Well take him in Atlanta. We can give you a signed Kirk Cousins jersey and a free pass to the World Of Coke.

    Ah yes, he’s someone else’s headache now.

    Tired of Jimmy when he brought them to the finals twice – which he had no business doing considering how Pat Riley has refused to make any moves and they clearly aren’t a good enough roster lol

  16. n3moh0es

    fair he’s absolutely tired of all the fake hype and being a play-in team every year

  17. ConnectionEconomy315

    Jimmy took the Heat to the finals twice, nearly 3 times. They had absolutely no business being there. When he’s healthy he turns into a top 5 player come playoff time. Front office has just been twiddling their thumbs the past few years let’s be honest.

  18. The-Pharcyde

    Not surprising at all. As good as Jimmy has been for them Pat Riley of all people probably despises his star player basically taking the regular season off constantly.

    So glad we don’t have to deal with this shit from Hardaway Sr.

    > Have you tried just not getting injured?

    Getting mad at Jimmy for making them be in the play ins when being in that spot has never hindered them whatsoever? Yeah I don’t think Pat said any of this lol.

  22. pumpkin3-14

    Professional yapper. THj was a class act, glad we don’t have to hear his dad yapping about the team anymore.

  23. Financial_Feature802

    Tim looks like he could still UTEP 2 Step about half the guys in the league

  24. Lsutigers202111

    Jimmy probably tired of octogenarian Riley
