  1. Ggs heats! Y’all played extremely well. jimmy is different in the playoffs but I still got the bucks if Giannis will play game 2.

  2. Jimmy is one of those players who quickly getting into playoffs mode when this stage from the way is about to start. And obviously, it's a pleasure to watch him at this big level considering also he's a veteran guy in sport.

  3. When it matters he shows up often (definition of a Superstar) hes the Bus Driver whos driving the heavy Bus

  4. He really don't, watch him barely get 20 in the next game or so wit his incident ass

  5. Heat getting the 8-seed could potentially be huge for the Celtics.. even if they don't advance they could push the series to seven and really wear you out, as might the Cavs

  6. Jimmy Jordan deserves a championship man the guy is a pitbull in the playoffs as long as the supporting cast steps up he can do what he do

  7. Jimmy gets whatever he wants, whenever he wants in the paint and mid range. Shooters just gotta continue to hit the shots when the defense collapses on him

  8. I always thought he's overrated back in his Bulls days. man I can't be more wrong. He Legitimately have that superstar blood.

  9. Chicago did a huge mistake trading him for Lavine…
    Butler is much better then Lavine.
    He can score, can play defense, can lead…
    Lavine can only score and not consistently…

  10. thanks for coming to Miami Jimmy, whether you guys ever get that ring or not it’s been a joy watching this era of Heat basketball

  11. Remember God loves you♥️
    John 3:16
    For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.
    Please repent, change your life around and live for Him🙏🙏.
    He is coming back soon😊………
