Jimmy Butler is one of the men in the NBA whose lines you would never want to cross. the Miami Heat swingman has proven time and time again that he can talk trash and back it up. He showed TJ Warren that he is not a man he would want to mess with on and off the court, and Meyers Leonard is loving every single minute of it.
Jimmy Butler wasn't just satisfied that the Pacers forward got ejected for taunting in his direction during the Heat's 122-108 victory over the Indiana Pacers. He talked smack during the game, and he didn't stop talking when he was getting ejected and during his post-game interviews.
He gave a fiery speech that has Warren most likely burning up before he goes to sleep. Leonard retweeted the Bleacher Report interview and replied with only one word to voice out what all of us basketball fans have been thinking all this time.

The reason why Heat fans and a lot of neutral fans were happy with Butler's performance is due to how rare players like him are in the league. The NBA's stars have become subtler over the years as the league wants them to be as media-friendly as possible. Butler is one of the few players who like to keep it real and says it as it is.
Butler had an outstanding night overall. He finished with 14 points, six rebounds, seven assists, and two steals. he led the Heat to an outstanding team win, and fans will be looking forward to the rematch and see the two players trade barbs and shots once more.
