    About time they got a “1 on 1” sit down with JB so we get HIS take on the situation..
  • @BaoZedong
    After learning about Jimmy's struggles with his parents growing up, then hearing here over and over again how he just wants to be wanted, it kinda hits different
  • @oompaloompa6064

  • Jimmy Butler thanks for visiting my country Senegal, West Africa. We were so lucky to see you in real life bro. You're a natural leader on any team. Keep it up!
  • @JusAObserver
    Jimmy B: "it's about saying we want you(trade Wiggins). We need you here(trade Wiggins). We can't do this without you(trade Wiggins)." Twolves Ownership keeps Wiggins
  • @lilbru
    When i listen to this, i hear Jimmy saying all i want is to be appreciated, accepted & wanted..i know where that stems from with him. He has such an engaging & outgoing personality with unfiltered honesty that guards his vulnerability in being neglected & abandoned. That feeling of neglect & abandonment is something he doesn't want to feel again
  • @luc1503
    Jimmy is a real one. Coming from nothing, being known as just a “defender” really to now being one of the best if not the best 2 way shooting guard in the league.
  • @fn-2187
    Who here after witnessing Jimmy Buckets reaching the Finals?
