In the past, Jimmy Butler has been known for being competitive and hungry to succeed. Following his tenure with the Bulls, Dwyane Wade shared his perspective on being alongside Butler. Butler has made a number of public statements about his eagerness to win, both in the media and amongst fellow players.

As the championships draw near, the competition increases with each game, because there is so much at stake It forces the players to shoulder the responsibility to select the best options and choices. According to NBA statistics, the Miami Heat are considered to be the sixth-best team in the league.

However, with the current competition, they must play at a higher level. Butler, the power forward for the Chicago Bulls, took the lead, wanting to go his way. He tried to persuade Goran Dragic to move in his direction during the off-season.

Dragic was an unrestricted free agent at the time. However, Butler aimed to persuade him to return to Miami so they could play one more time this season together. Sadly, Dragic’s injury limited his time on the court. Chiefly, Butler became frustrated because the two of them weren’t able to showcase their talents together.

It hasn’t been a great ride for Jimmy Butler in the NBA

In an attempt to bring back his former teammate Dragic, Buttler did everything he could. Based on reports, the two talked on FaceTime, and this was during Dragic’s vacation in Slovenia. Butler made a pitch to Dragic during that time and the Slovenian player recalled saying, “He said, ‘You better sign with the Heat. If not, I know where you live. I’m going to hunt you down. And I’m going to beat you up,’ ”

To this end, Dwyane Wade spoke what he thinks of Jimmy Butler by stating, “I still don’t think Jimmy looks at himself as a good guy,” said Wade, who played with Butler for one year in Chicago. “You won’t see a change in him. If you like him? Cool. If you don’t? Cool. Jimmy don’t give a f— either way.”
