Jimmy Butler Continues To Be The Perfect Asshole - Demands He Guards Giannis In Game 2, Right After Giannis Refused To Guard Him

Jimmy Butler has 100% won me over. It's not even close. I love this guy. He's just the perfect asshole. Not only that, but he's a dude that will compete at all times. That's why I love this from last night. Remember Game 1? No, not Jimmy Butler scoring 40, but rather Giannis standing in the corner defending Jae Crowder because he's a better weakside defender? You know the DPOY that didn't guard Jimmy Butler destroying his team and afterward said he has no idea why people would ask him that, he just does whatever his coaches does. 

So what happens in game 2? OF COURSE Jimmy demanded to guard Giannis. He's playing mental warfare and he's going to dominate not just Giannis with that, but the entire Bucks. Giannis was having a good game offensively too. 29 points, 10-for-18 from the floor. Getting to the line and only 2 turnovers. That's a decent game. That's why I love Jimmy Butler saying fuck it let me guard him. Butler is the leader for the Heat. He's a great defender. That's what you're supposed to do when you're that guy. Not guard Jae Crowder in the corner just because your coach thinks your weakside defense will help, ESPECIALLY when the Heat are set up for drive and kicks so you can't help off of Crowder as much. 

I know people think Jimmy Butler is a bit of an underachiever based on how he's talked about. But look at what he's doing in Miami. He's turning that team around along with Bam. He found his home and he's a hell of a player. I want Jimmy Butler mic'd up for an entire game, no edits. Let me hear how much shit he talks.
