Although we are still a month away from the witness of the first match of Jimmy Butler with which his former team is confronted in a Golden State Jersey, we can only imagine how things will unfold. After a rocky end of his term of office in Miami, after they had asked for an exchange after they suspended him three separate times, there are clearly many feelings between them.
This is why the experienced guard expects that this upcoming matchup is a very “personal” because he still has a lot of love for everyone in the Heat organization. “I think it’s a great feeling because you know everyone,” he shared on Virgin Radio Dubai’s The Kris Fade Show. “Just as I know their game, they know my game at the same pace. But it’s all love. “
The competition is planned for March 25 in Florida. “I have been in the trenches with Miami for the past six seasons, and as I tell everyone, the way they want to defeat me and make sure they defeat the Golden State Warriors, I promise you, it’s just as personal for Me too, “he added.

Despite the affection, Jimmy admitted that he wish it would have ended otherwise. “I love those guys there. Great organization. It did not end the way everyone hoped it would end, but that is only part of the Basketball company. I have nothing to say about that organization, “he said.
It seems that the trade of Butler in Golden State slowly, but certainly the heart of teammate Drayond Green overcome. When the former Heat Star arrived for the first time, the four-time champion called him a “franchise change party”, and now he seems convinced that the newcomer will bring the NBA title back to the Bay Area.
During the All-Star weekend he made this daring statement about the chances of the Warriors on a title after obtaining the superstar on the NBA Handelsdeadline. “I think we went a bit in the wrong direction, thinking that we’ll sort it out and never figure it out this year,” he said.
Green then added: “During the course this year, and since then [Butler has] Been here, we walked into every game and think we will win that game. And that goes a long way in this competition. “
