In a recent interview, right after Dwyane Wade admitted that he didn’t believe in Butler as much at first, Butler confessed something himself. Butler was first drafted by the Chicago Bulls back in 2011. However, a sense of hatred was built in the Bulls against Heat.
“We was taught to hate you all man and hate everything about the Miami Heat,” Butler told Dwyane. “And I understand why. You all used to beat our ass on a regular basis. It was like damn near disrespect. It was blatantly disrespectful the way you used to beat up on us in Chicago man. If the roles were reversed, you would hate me too.”

Jimmy Butler has found his home
It seemed like Butler would never find a place for himself in the NBA. His stint with all his previous teams, whether it was the Bulls, the Minnesota Timberwolves, or the Philadelphia 76ers, ended badly.

With the Bulls, he was tired of being in a losing team. When he came to Minnesota, what seemed like would be a deadly trio next to Andrew Wiggins and Karl-Anthony Towns, turned into a beef. And with the 76ers, Butler didn’t get along with coach Brett Brown. The fact that he was overshadowing Joel Embiid didn’t go down well with Embiid either, so he was quickly out of there too.
This created a perception that Butler was the problem. Although that has changed ever since he joined the Miami Heat. Even Jimmy looks happier, and although the Heat isn’t doing as well this season, there still is time for them to pick it up.
