For Heat fans this is probably somewhat encouraging but personally this gives me “Stupidly locked in” vibes. Do you believe the Miami Heat can win it all this season?

The Heat didn’t do anything to get better this year, so I’m not sure what would convince me that this is anything but Jimmy Butler saying Jimmy Butler things.
Stupidly locked in
Ok jimmy I’m counting you out
Southeast Division Championship
The play in championship
Aw fuck we about to miss the playoffs, aren’t we
Playoff mode activated
CULTURE
Things go better when we don’t talk.
It’s okay our team is delusional too
Lol

That’s very much a non story lol. There’s almost certainly someone on every team saying they are going all the way
What are they going to do? “Nah this ain’t it boys, see you in 5 years when half of you are gone”
I’m sure any of those teams would do those trades
Just have Herro play shirtless. Tiger tits is plenty a distraction I feel to get some wins in.
You gotta make the playoffs to win the championship Jimmy
LFG!!!
No shot. Love the confidence though.
The Heat had one of the worst off-seasons of any team. They genuinely did nothing to get better. Sure, they had a hard fought series with the Celtics, but now the Bucks are fully healthy in addition to the Celtics re-tooling their bench. Also, it took them 6 games to beat the Sixers essentially without Embiid and a hobbled Harden
He’s stupidly locked in to making confident comments.
Like a lot of teams they need some power forwards
>Count us out.

Not really related, but I find it wild that Miami has to play Warriors/Kings 4 games straight. California Classic gang?
Ok Milli Vanilli…
they’re going to to finish 10th in the east and suit up in the finals
This can’t go wrong
Who cares? We want players who believe in their team and aspire to win the championship. If he said anything less, he would be undermining his team and probably lying because I do believe Jimmy thinks he can win any game. Whether it bears out or not, we’ll see.
Im ootl. Why is the Heat sucking balls so far? What happened to their roster? All i know is that they lost Pj Tucker…
> “We’re still going to win the championship, and I don’t care what nobody says. Count us out. We’re going to win the f*cking championship. I’m telling you.
Narrator: They didn’t.
It’s good to hear that someone gives a fuck. Our whole team looks like zombies just collecting a paycheck every game.
Keep talking about my squad, our personnel ages, the way he plays, he stays injured, we’re past our time in this league, etc etc etc. Do me one favor PLEASE!!! And I mean PLEASE!!! 🙏🏾 Keep that same narrative ENERGY when it begins! That’s all I ask. #ThankYou 👑
If Jimmy Butler didn’t believe this, he wouldn’t be Jimmy Butler.
Our roster is poorly constructed, we are way too small. Kyle Lowry is looking better than last year but not by much. This team will be hovering around .500 all year and will undoubtedly be in the play in.
Professional basketball player believes in himself and in his team, so what’s really new? I mean what should he say? Hey guys, we are doo doo and we won’t accomplish anything this season? Even the bottom teams aren’t that honest.
Personally I don’t believe in the Heat and I would be very surprised if they even reach the semi-finals, because the Celtics, Bucks, 76ers are the better teams and teams like the Raptors, and Cavs are looking scary. Hell, I don’t expect the Nets to be this bad for the whole season.
But I’ll bite and say why they can reach the finals even if I don’t believe in this Heat team.
– They have Butler who can transform into a top 5 player when the playoffs come.
– Their young players of Herro, Bam, Struss, Martin, Duncan are in their 20s and they will improve during the season.
– They have a top 3 coach in Spo and when the playoffs come who do you trust more? Doc “I don’t know what I’m doing” Rivers or Spo?
– Pat Riley can make a good trade.
– Victor Oladipo somehow comes back healthy and productive.
– Kyle Lowry finds the fountain of youth during the playoffs.
You ain’t winning shit
uh oh watch out Jimbo getting stupid again
Call Rachel?
Hell no lol
Let me guess, it’s because he’s so much more intense than other players…… What a bunch of garbage!
Bucks in 5.
man I wish the standings on this sub worked
🙄
Not with that hairstyle you won’t.
Jimmy’s so competitive he calls the play-in tournament “the f*cking championship”
From a man who knows 0 about winning a championship.
