Butler has officially requested a trade from the Heat.

Sources also revealed that league teams have been informed that Butler plans to refuse to exercise his player option for the 2025-26 season (worth $52.41 million over one year) and become a free agent in July of this year.

And what Jimmy means is that except for the Heat, you can go anywhere, and there is no designation of the next family.

Here's the Heat's response:Butler was suspended for seven games due to multiple adverse actions against the team throughout the season, and especially in the past few weeks.

As Butler and his agent expressed a desire to be traded, the Heat announced that they would listen to offers.

What does the Heat mean: What are you going to fight me with? Let's stop pay and suspend the game.

Isn't this wave of operations rare? What brings real money to the players is the loss of real money:

Under the collective bargaining agreement, Butler will lose 1/145 of his annual salary, or $346543, per game, for a total of $2.35 million for seven games.

It's team behavior, not league behavior.

Although the players' union will appeal, Jimmy's suspension will not be able to run, and it will be time for the process to be completed.

The drama of Butler and the Heat has taken a long time.

First Shams was the first to break the news, the Heat was willing to listen to Jimmy's offer, the player revealed that he wanted to go to the Rockets, Warriors or Mavericks, on December 12, JB agents bombarded Shams, saying that the rumors were all made up.

The Heat retweeted, but Shams insisted that it was true, and once again broke the news that Jimmy wanted to leave before the trade deadline and wanted to join the Western Conference powerhouse.

On Dec. 27, the Heat issued a statement making it clear that they would not trade Jimmy Butler.

Then, in the last two games, Butler did have a negative swing.

The core differences between the two sides at the beginning, Brother Di said in December, don't look at so many pulls, the main thing is:

In the offseason, Butler wanted a two-year, $113 million contract extension, but the Heat (Riley) were not willing to offer it.

If it is placed in an ordinary team, then the deal will not be successful, but benevolence and righteousness will be there.

If you want to apply for a trade, I'll try to find a seller, and I'll send you away at the right price.

After all, Butler has been with the Heat for several years, and he is also the man who helped the team reach the Finals twice. Despite not bringing the championship, there is no credit for hard work, and there is fatigue without hard work.

Okay, just disperse and it's over.

From a business point of view, there is really no need for the Heat to give Butler, who is 35 years old and has average attendance, a contract as big.

It doesn't make sense for you to scold Riley from that angle.

Even Wade, the first person in the history of the Heat, dared to do it, and he was so angry that the Flash played hometown basketball.

What is Butler in comparison?

So, O'Neill said:My personal experience has taught me that you can't quarrel with Riley.

But I didn't expect that the breakup of the two parties would be so unseemly.

I agree with Pierce's assessment of this matter, and he roughly meant:

The Heat's culture started with O'Neal, Mourning, Haslem and Wade, then Riley got rid of O'Neal, then James, then Wade, and now it's Butler's turn.

Many of the heroes who have contributed to the team are not decent.

"The survival of the Heat culture is closely related to Lew, if he doesn't want to change his behavior, continue to be stubborn, continue to pick the door, I think the Heat culture will die."

has never denied that the 80-year-old God Operator has made great contributions to the history of the Heat, but after this series of operations, it has been done so well that it can be said that he has smashed his own signboard.

Times have changed, and today's players generally don't have the patience of the older generation.

Just ask, how can any star player take the initiative to play for the Heat? I don't want to.

One is that the training is really hard, and the other is that even Wade didn't have a good ending in the Heat, who would dare to come?

Share a little story, said by the Heat's dribble guard Chalmers.

He went out one night and went to a bar for a drink.

The next day, Pat Riley asked, "You went to the bar last night, right?" ”

Chalmers, who was 22 years old at the time, panicked: "Hmm... Yes. How do you know? ”

God operator: "Miami is in my hands, and everything needs to be known to me." ”

That's right, a slap doesn't make a sound.

Both sides have come to this day, and it's unfair if you only blame Riley and only blame the Heat.

If you look at Butler's career resume, he's also a player who doesn't serve well.

Whether it's in the Bulls, the Timberwolves, or Philadelphia, aren't they all unhappy with management?

So, he met Riley, and this time it was really a needle on the needle.

As for where he will be traded, I really don't have an answer to the questions that the brothers ask a lot:

The strong team can't afford it, and the weak team can't use it.
