Jimmy Butler: ‘I just don’t like the way some things were handled’ http://tinyurl.com/y75wqgav “It doesn’t mean a damn thing,’’ the three-time All-Star told the Sun-Times in a phone interview from Paris on Friday. “I guess being called the face of an organization isn’t as good as I thought. We all see where being the so-called face of the Chicago Bulls got me. So let me be just a player for the Timberwolves, man. That’s all I want to do. I just want to be winning games. Do what I can for my respective organization and let them realize what I’m trying to do. “Whatever they want to call me … face … I don’t even want to get into that anymore. Whose team is it? All that means nothing. You know what I’ve learned? Face of the team, eventually you’re going to see the back of his head as he’s leaving town, so no thanks.’ “It’s crazy because there was me talking with guys about Cleveland, then all the outside rumors with Boston, Minnesota, Phoenix, then the feeling that I’m not going anywhere,’’ Butler said. “I mean I had so many people telling me what could possibly happen, but I just got to the point where I stopped paying attention to it. “It’s crazy because it reminds you of what a business this is. You can’t get mad at anybody. I’m not mad, I’m not. I just don’t like the way some things were handled, but it’s OK.’’ “People are going to think what they want to think,’’ Butler said. “Fred had the same objective that I did. He wanted to win. I do agree that we go about it differently, but I don’t care what anyone thinks about me as a basketball player. I have no bad things to say about Fred at all. “Maybe we didn’t see eye-to-eye on some things and a few things could have been handled different at different times, but like I said back then and I say now, I don’t regret anything. I don’t take anything back. I am who I am, and I’m not perfect in any shape or form.’’ “I love to be challenged by my coaches,’’ Butler said. “I mean I feel like I’ve talked so much about how I love Thibs and respect what he does, going back to my rookie year. I mean he’s done so much for me. It’s great to be back with a guy like that. The guy knows how to win. I know his style of play and I feel like I’ll fit in with that core that they have over there. “We’re going to be really good, I believe that. We’re going to be, at least I’m hoping, that we’re going to be the toughest team that takes the floor every night. That’s what we can bank on, that’s something we can control. If we can do that to the best of our abilities we’re going to win some games.’’ “All you hear them say is it was great to watch me grow and every single year I seemed to get better,’’ Butler said. “That was all nice to hear, but I guess it wasn’t enough. That’s OK. I’m not mad.’’ - 看了這篇之後蠻難過的 一輪末端的潛力新秀 在公牛板凳溫了一年 然後成功跟著Deng扛起側翼小鎖的工作 Deng走之後成為公牛主要的當家大鎖配合飆風玫瑰 在玫瑰倒的這幾年搭配著Noah跟一票角色球員在例行賽拼鬥 也逐漸學習更多元的進攻手段及領導能力 在這一兩年成為NBAALLSTAR今年更入選了年度第三隊 比起當初Rose被交易掉的感受 原來讓我更難過的是賣掉JB啊 祝福他未來一路順風 成為西區能夠跟勇士季後血戰的超級強隊 聽說要換23號了 QQQQQ -- Made By silius ╭╮╭╮ ╭──╮ ╭──╮ ╭──╮ ││││ │╭─╯ │╭╮│ │╭╮│ ┌─┐┐ ╭╮ ╭╮─╮ ╭──╮ ╭──╮ │╰╯│ │╰─╮ │╰╯│ ╰╯││ │ ││ ╰╯ │╭╮│ │╭─╯ │╭ │ ╰─╮│ │╭╮│ │╭╮│ ││ │ └│ ││ ││││ │╰─╮ │╰─╯ ││ │╰╯│ │╰╯│ ││ └──┘ ╰╯ ╰╯╰╯ ╰──╯ ╰──╯ ╰╯ ╰──╯ ╰──╯ ╰╯ --
