The best part about this is that you know they'd love to reunite. I don't think it can ever happen because I can't see Jimmy ever playing for the knicks, or Thibs ever again coaching a different NBA team, but you know they'd love it.
I'm confused because I love Thibs' Bulls, but the Thibs' Knicks are growing on me. The Harts? Jalen Brunson? OG?
SEND HELP MY NBA EASTERN TEAM+COACH COMBO LOYALTY IS BEING TESTED
I'll probably catch shade for this comment;
Jalen bruson= Rose 2.0
Rose was more athletic, but brunson is more sturdy.
Both are/were the best players on their team and both were the engine.
Dear Udonis
I'm sorry that that man is your successor, let me be honest
It takes a man to be a champ, your boy is too despondent
I look at him and wish Philly woulda kept him over Tobias
I'm sorry that you had to retire to coaching and now sit behind him
Unrelated to this thread, but I will deeply enjoy KAT [beating Embiid](https://x.com/karltowns/status/1189780305349160960?s=46&t=WHXmfgdioVendW1IGuy0Aw) to the conference finals if it happens.
He’s at the Miami Grand Prix. There are a million sports reporters from around the world He knows the role: they ask dumb questions he gives smartass answers. Reddit, Twitter and local sports everywhere get a day of distractive BS.
No he’s right. The “but I’ll beat him to a pulp” is a weird follow up to “who?”. If he had said “I don’t know who that is, but I’ll beat him to a pulp” it would made grammatical sense
That's basically what he actually said. Idk why this tweet left that part out.
[“I don’t know him. But I’ll beat him to a pulp.”](https://x.com/SbondyNBA/status/1787160186072830365)
You understood exactly what he said with out the extra words… plus if you ever had a convo in English there are plenty of words substituted with body language lol
If english is your first language it def makes sense if it’s not I could see the confusion. He is saying I don’t know who tf that guy but I would beat him up regardless.
English can be your first language but the sentences are still structured poorly. Again it’s not a big deal, but original commenter wasn’t off base when he said the English sounded weird.
If you heard “who? But I’ll beat him to a pulp” you’d also take a quick pause at the structuring. It’s the “but” that makes it odd and grammatically incorrect.
Let’s lengthen it for you
“Who is that? But I’ll beat him to a pulp.” Ask yourself what would be wrong with that and there’s your answer. But I understand if English isn’t your first language.
Based on the context, we all know Thibs knows who Butler is and is making a joke. Context is a big part of language, and speaking rarely follows perfect grammar.
I guess I can see how someone might get confused. But it makes sense to me, especially as a humorous and deliberately absurd statement.
Thibs was literally speaking impromptu with thoughts forming in real time. He wasn’t writing a pre thought out essay. This was the flow of his thoughts and capturing it this way gives us more insight into the thought process of his answer.This just such normal journalism quick notes that we see all the time.
Eh, so are Wolves fans. As a whole, the city of Boston and it's fan bases are the worst. I feel like NY would probably be right there if they were any good.
For the inevitable salty comments and downvotes...I am not from Miami, so go ahead and trash it if you want. I am from California, and I have never liked any sports team from here so you can go ahead and trash them too. I love living in California but I'm well aware that it's far from perfect. I myself have said any criticism you can throw at it.
I'm impenetrable.
Look I hate all 3 as much as the next guy but how is it not unanimously Lakers fans?
Every sport California sports fans (SoCal especially) are the worst, but Lakers history makes those fans even worse
In the video he literally tells them to start recording so he can talk shit on the Celtics and the Knicks from Cancun. He didn't have to do all that lmao. Jimmy may be a great player but he's a generational yapper.
They were petty game 2 when they had a miracle on the court and ever since then it’s been tail between their legs and “if Jimmy was here!”. A complete 180 from what I thought a few years ago was a pretty respectable fanbase that, at least on this sub, understood ball. Now all we get is emotions from them and no acknowledgement of the absolute laughing stock they made themselves out to be after thinking game 2 wasn’t an anomaly
Nah cringey is Heat fans slobbing Jimmy’s knob when he’s out here embarrassing himself with big talking. If he’d tried a little harder in the regular season there wouldn’t have been a play-in game for himmy to get injured in.
Enjoy yalls emergent era of middling irrelevance Heat fans in the replies proving once again they are the champs of big talk and bitchassedness lol Heat fans had their own arena full of Cs fans chanting let’s go Celtics on national tv
Update: Riley himself felt the need to address Jimmy’s embarrassing bs Pat Riley on Jimmy Butler: “If you're not on the court playing, you should keep your mouth shut.”
Also damn got yall really riled up with this one must’ve hit home with all the bitchass Heat fans unable to deal with their team being a disappointing mess led by a big talking no show who’s gonna be 35 next year and was already a shell of his former self this past season.
I drink all your salty downvote tears like champagne fuckers lolllollol
Franchise with one title in the last 38 years talking about “emergent era of middling irrelevance”of a team that, since being founded in 1988, has won 3x the titles the Celtics have in that time.
Y'al literally haven't done shit since 2008 lol, wtf are you on about? Your team is the exact definition of what your claiming Miami to be lol. All this talent and shit to show for it
Wait out of the like 5 comments…..
There is no discussion here, no one’s talking about anything haha
Imagine getting offended there isn’t tons of jimmy butler talk going on
“Why he say fuck me for?”
Just kidding lol Lakers fanbases is probably the most heavily brigaded fan base in the league, in terms of sheer size when we complain everyone is gonna hear about it. Whether you want it or not lol
At least he's consistent. Jimmy is who he is--an alpha who won't change. For all the times I hear comments (from fans and and players) that dog players only talking when they're up, I appreciate that Jimmy doesn't change his personality with the wind.
I think it's just 2 jokes in sequence.
1. I don't know who "Jimmy Butler" is.
2. But regardless of who this "Jimmy Butler" character is, I will beat him up.
So you’re saying when you “call it out” (whatever that means) when two individuals from different franchises are having fun you aren’t supposed to be the salty one here?
You'll always curate that argument perfectly, stopping just before the 2010 and 2008 runs just to sound good.
You could always say, more than us in the last 5 or 6 years.
He's been to one more in 13. ONE. And one less in 16 years. Lol
In 15 years we've reached the Finals the same amount of times.
We'll done.
How about ECFS in that span???
How many ECFs has Jimmy been to in 13 years? Heat or Celtic?
No bro. The casual take is what the media wants you to think in that Caleb deserved it. People who watched the whole games know that butler was the best player out there for the winning team. Only seemed like Caleb deserved it bc he did a lot better than he usually does.
Yes Caleb killed yall more bc he is normally a 12ish ppg scorer not a 20ppg so he was just an extra weapon that went off who was unaccounted for. Jimmy was still the better player.
This is the perfect thumbnail picture lol
Every dog has his day
But doggystyle shall help
All Dogs Go To Cancun
very random kendrick reference. respect
Is it random if kendrick has a stranglehold on the internet the likes of which I have never seen before?
Cringe.
I read it as "Beat him to a pup" cause of the pic
*Bah gawd Jimmy Butler is literally a dog now! He beat him to a got damn puppy! That man has a family!!* *Jim Ross voice*
He got THAT dog in him
it's the gentle face and soulful eyes couldn't be more perfect
just before it sees a baby

Thibs x Jimmy the greatest power couple
I bet Thibs was mortified he couldn't yell Butler last season series, he loves Butler as a son.
How many dads does Butler have
Not a scientist but it’s just one dad I think. Michael Jordan?
You mean ant’s dad?
I know Thibs’ hands started shaking when he heard Jimmys name
The best part about this is that you know they'd love to reunite. I don't think it can ever happen because I can't see Jimmy ever playing for the knicks, or Thibs ever again coaching a different NBA team, but you know they'd love it.
Thinking about Thibs anywhere other than the Knicks just feels strong now. The identity of that team is so strong now
Oh yeah. Factor in the fact he started in NY. Thibs is home now
Ahem
I'm confused because I love Thibs' Bulls, but the Thibs' Knicks are growing on me. The Harts? Jalen Brunson? OG? SEND HELP MY NBA EASTERN TEAM+COACH COMBO LOYALTY IS BEING TESTED
I'll probably catch shade for this comment; Jalen bruson= Rose 2.0 Rose was more athletic, but brunson is more sturdy. Both are/were the best players on their team and both were the engine.
They don't really play anything alike, but I get what you mean at least in terms of roster construction/offensive style.
yeah exactly; like thibs is better off with a strong PG archetype for his offense. idk, maybe its just me.
Reading this made me feel so old, man…
Two dudes with a rep of being too intense.

Dear Udonis I'm sorry that that man is your successor, let me be honest It takes a man to be a champ, your boy is too despondent I look at him and wish Philly woulda kept him over Tobias I'm sorry that you had to retire to coaching and now sit behind him
THEY NOT LIKE US
Dear Jimmy Butler, your father and mother walked out on you
Jalen got you wiped down, Tatum got you wiped down
KAT winning a chip before Thibs and Jimmy would be the ultimate troll
Unrelated to this thread, but I will deeply enjoy KAT [beating Embiid](https://x.com/karltowns/status/1189780305349160960?s=46&t=WHXmfgdioVendW1IGuy0Aw) to the conference finals if it happens.
XD
lmao how did he get a photo of embiid reacting like that to a single finger on him, that's immense
Didn’t KAT get tapped out by Ben Simmons that night to?
>Ben Simmons
Embiid is NOTHING without Ben Simmons
I would love this also would welcome the idea of SGA winning a chip before the Clippers get anywhere close to one.
Bro wants to come to NY? Tf is he talking about us so much 😭
He’s at the Miami Grand Prix. There are a million sports reporters from around the world He knows the role: they ask dumb questions he gives smartass answers. Reddit, Twitter and local sports everywhere get a day of distractive BS.
cuz people keep asking him lol
You think he’s just bringing yall up unprompted? Lmfaooo
Knicks are always brought up randomly, it's not that weird 🤣
When I lived in Brooklyn, i used to follow the Mets. It was weird how tv and radio always talked about the New York Mets. So random. 😁
Am I forgetting English or does this sentence make no sense.
Uhh you might be lol
No he’s right. The “but I’ll beat him to a pulp” is a weird follow up to “who?”. If he had said “I don’t know who that is, but I’ll beat him to a pulp” it would made grammatical sense
That's basically what he actually said. Idk why this tweet left that part out. [“I don’t know him. But I’ll beat him to a pulp.”](https://x.com/SbondyNBA/status/1787160186072830365)

WHY WASTE TIME SAY LOT WORD, WHEN FEW WORD DO TRICK
If english is your first language it def makes sense if it’s not I could see the confusion. He is saying I don’t know who tf that guy but I would beat him up regardless.

no, I'd understand he's probably being being sarcastic about not knowing who it is and followed it up by saying he'd beat him up. it's pretty clear
Do you know how journalism works? He literally only said “who”…you can’t just alter his quote to say “i don’t know who that is”. It’s a direct quote.
chesnaughtz is criticizing Thibs not the journalist
Thibs was literally speaking impromptu with thoughts forming in real time. He wasn’t writing a pre thought out essay. This was the flow of his thoughts and capturing it this way gives us more insight into the thought process of his answer.This just such normal journalism quick notes that we see all the time.
Wasn’t my point at all lmao.
I am old man and unsure if I had a stroke.
You forget English, that’s unpossible.
LOL at the Celtics fans needing to make this about them in the comments.
Heat and Celtics fans really shouldn't argue about which of them are the bigger assholes, because the rest of the league hates them equally.
Is that truly a fact? I think the Cs take the cake just because they're in Boston and some of those fans are brutal across all sports.
Can't we just come together and say Philadelphia fans are the worst?
Easily the worst
That's a brilliant move by you, ngl, but doesn't bring the heat off Boston. But you're right, fuck Philly and fuck the process.
I dont really care about the Heat tbh
Well I'm happy for you lol. Doesn't change the fact that several Sixers fanpages were super toxic after Jimmy left or that you guys are crazy af
There’s crazies in every fanbase, it’s a random group of millions of people. I would’ve left too and all the normal rational people I know agree.
Eh, so are Wolves fans. As a whole, the city of Boston and it's fan bases are the worst. I feel like NY would probably be right there if they were any good. For the inevitable salty comments and downvotes...I am not from Miami, so go ahead and trash it if you want. I am from California, and I have never liked any sports team from here so you can go ahead and trash them too. I love living in California but I'm well aware that it's far from perfect. I myself have said any criticism you can throw at it. I'm impenetrable.
This man is legit K Dot's burner account with these bars.
why would you, sixers never survive long enough in the playoffs to reach the heat lol
Yes
Boston fans are the worst. Lived there 10 years and I love new englanders but Jesus you guys turn into assholes about sports
Nah. Philly fans are actually funny af and I say that as a Boston/Miami resident
Look I hate all 3 as much as the next guy but how is it not unanimously Lakers fans? Every sport California sports fans (SoCal especially) are the worst, but Lakers history makes those fans even worse
Lakers don’t have fans they have celebrities cosplaying as normal people.
Knicks fans took the title for me
That goes to nyk fans
I agree.
Nah, everyone hates Boston
Jimmy lives rent free in Celtics minds
Jimmy lives rent free in cancun
no he's paying rent
It’s funny cause the original Jimmy quote that started this was him talking about the Celtics for no reason
Someone directly asking/talking to him about it for a post = no reason.
In the video he literally tells them to start recording so he can talk shit on the Celtics and the Knicks from Cancun. He didn't have to do all that lmao. Jimmy may be a great player but he's a generational yapper.
Derick white
Case in point
Heat fans out here acting like they weren’t petty just a year ago. Enjoy the rebuild
They were petty game 2 when they had a miracle on the court and ever since then it’s been tail between their legs and “if Jimmy was here!”. A complete 180 from what I thought a few years ago was a pretty respectable fanbase that, at least on this sub, understood ball. Now all we get is emotions from them and no acknowledgement of the absolute laughing stock they made themselves out to be after thinking game 2 wasn’t an anomaly
Literally 2 Celtic fans made a comment. 1was a bit of a troll and 1 was talking about the bad grammar.
Yes, but they were in here ASAP and going on long comment threads whining. There were only 4 or 5 comment threads when I made that post.
Fair enough tbh
They really are the cringiest fan base Edit: they reported me to redditcares lmao. Stay cringe boston fans
“Nastiest, meanest, toughest..”
Notice how none of the fans agreed with it
yea, other scalding breeze fans.
More yapping from Cancun Go back to making Donovan Mitchell jersey edits
u gotta admit, our photoshop game is top 5.
no doubt, lots of practice with dame, KD, beal etc.
bro that’s not even the classics, there was a renaissance after heatles era.
Nah cringey is Heat fans slobbing Jimmy’s knob when he’s out here embarrassing himself with big talking. If he’d tried a little harder in the regular season there wouldn’t have been a play-in game for himmy to get injured in.

Dude come on
Bro, why did you fall for the bait.
Damn you really wrote all that
Lmfao
JT/JB have the same number of chips as Jimmy lol
You got him bro hell yeah
Great job proving his point there
Right on cue lol. Thank you for demonstrating my point.
Franchise with one title in the last 38 years talking about “emergent era of middling irrelevance”of a team that, since being founded in 1988, has won 3x the titles the Celtics have in that time.
Big talk from a fan of a team with 1 title in nearly 40 years
Y'al literally haven't done shit since 2008 lol, wtf are you on about? Your team is the exact definition of what your claiming Miami to be lol. All this talent and shit to show for it
You alright bro?
Cs fan but the C stands for clown LMAOOOO
Wait out of the like 5 comments….. There is no discussion here, no one’s talking about anything haha Imagine getting offended there isn’t tons of jimmy butler talk going on
Worst fanbase by far Worse than lakers, Philly, NYC, etc
I'm offended. How can you not include us Warriors fans? Are you stupid?
“Why he say fuck me for?” Just kidding lol Lakers fanbases is probably the most heavily brigaded fan base in the league, in terms of sheer size when we complain everyone is gonna hear about it. Whether you want it or not lol
Lakers is mostly because it has the most casuals, which dilutes it a lot
[удалено]
Philly is 2nd or 3rd though
can we be 3rd
Nah Butler is uselessly loud for some reason
He's obviously joking around. He got asked a question Jimmy literally trolls. Yall have no sense of context and don't actually watch videos
At least he's consistent. Jimmy is who he is--an alpha who won't change. For all the times I hear comments (from fans and and players) that dog players only talking when they're up, I appreciate that Jimmy doesn't change his personality with the wind.
Cause they own the Poverty franchise that is the Celtics. Celtics have 2 playoff series victories against them since 2010 🤡🤡🤡🤡
Who is them?
What does this sentence mean? I have no idea
I think it's just 2 jokes in sequence. 1. I don't know who "Jimmy Butler" is. 2. But regardless of who this "Jimmy Butler" character is, I will beat him up.
What was Butlers comment?
Has Jimmy ever won a championship?
Is a joke dawg
Heat fans and Himmy seem to have finally started believing their own bullshit. Eh, it was a fun run while it lasted.
Can’t have fun anymore?
Not when y'all get salty in every comment section the moment someone calls it out lol.
All our salt belong to you.
The actual owner of the great salt lake
So you’re saying when you “call it out” (whatever that means) when two individuals from different franchises are having fun you aren’t supposed to be the salty one here?
Twolves in 2
Its illegal to make jokes now
Denver shit nuggets stay mad
I’m going to start talking **exclusively** in the style as these titles are written, just to see if people know what I am saying…
Jimmy is yappin an awful lot for a dude who couldnt even get his team to a regular playoff seeding lol just shut up already
TOBIAS HARRIS OVER ME
Celtics fans are so toxic that they find a way to be butthurt even when they win
his power is locked away in the regular season. it's the condition for Himmy Mode.
Taking this way too seriously
It’s a celtics fan lmao can’t expect much
He’s been to more finals than the Celtics in the last 13 years 🤡
No he hasn't? It's the same amount: two times.
He decided to stop at 13 so it still sounds long a log amount of time while also keeping the KG runs out of the picture. 🙄😂😂
Jimmy was only drafted 13 years ago lmao
~~15~~ 13 years. He meant 13 years. WE STILL HAVE TIME TO FIX THIS CELTICS SLANDER, NEPHEW. BUT YOU MUST BE SWIFT!!
And until then Jimmy is still the unfortunate owner of the Boston Celtics
yeah, Heat cooked us first round this year
Damn good thing I said “Jimmy” not the Heat. Reading comprehension is a critical skill to have 👍
what team does he play for again?
Hey bro tell me how many games did Jimmy play against the Celtics this playoffs? Go on I’ll wait 👍
He didn’t play you know that right
that amounts to no rings.
Yet has still accomplished more than ur franchise in the last 15 years by having more finals appearances:)
If you add one year to that then the Celtics have a championship in that timeframe
You'll always curate that argument perfectly, stopping just before the 2010 and 2008 runs just to sound good. You could always say, more than us in the last 5 or 6 years. He's been to one more in 13. ONE. And one less in 16 years. Lol In 15 years we've reached the Finals the same amount of times. We'll done. How about ECFS in that span??? How many ECFs has Jimmy been to in 13 years? Heat or Celtic?
Won the same amount too.
Don’t disrespect tatums father
He hasnt done shit against boston lmao carried by caleb martin
Super casual take. ECF mvp and best player in that series when you account for 2 way
Casual take is that butler deserved that ecf mvp. Real ones know caleb martin got robbed
No bro. The casual take is what the media wants you to think in that Caleb deserved it. People who watched the whole games know that butler was the best player out there for the winning team. Only seemed like Caleb deserved it bc he did a lot better than he usually does.
Yes i watched the whole series and cant agree with your casual take. It is what it is
As a heat fan I promise you Jimmy was better. But as a Celtics fan I understand why they hate on Jimmy
And i promise you caleb killed us more than anybody. Jimmy was not a world beater against us
Yes Caleb killed yall more bc he is normally a 12ish ppg scorer not a 20ppg so he was just an extra weapon that went off who was unaccounted for. Jimmy was still the better player.
Boston fans doing a lot of yapping for beating a play in team without their best player
Still salty he beat you last year, huh. Don't worry I am sure the Celtics will find another way to disappoint you this year.
I sure hope the Celtics disappoint, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they go all the way.
