The Jimmy Butler Fiasco Is Getting Ugly | Defector
Briefly

After the Heat lost to the Pacers, Butler expressed his desire for a fresh start, stating, "I want to see me getting my joy back playing basketball. Wherever that may be, we'll find out here pretty soon." He emphasized his unhappiness with his current performance and the need for a change to help both himself and the team succeed.
While the Heat are tied for fifth in the East, Butler's frustration stems from the lack of roster improvement and the team's failure to become serious contenders. He feels that the team didn't bolster his chances of winning after missing out on key acquisitions in the offseason, and that stagnation is partly what drives his discontent.
