Everybody’s so scared to be honest with one another. If you didn’t like the way I handled myself in practice, one of the players, come up to me. Somebody say something – anybody. I’m not gonna take it as offense; it’s not personal. Jimmy Butler Read Quote
My job is to go out there and play. I mean, I guess you could guess who I would rather play for. We’re not going to sit here and say that that’s a huge secret. I mean, whoever they decided to bring in, my job was to help them win to the best of my ability. Jimmy Butler Read Quote
We’ll go on vacation, but we don’t really care to go see Rome or anything. We just want to play dominoes. We like the fact that we can say, ‘Oh, we went to Rome.’ ‘Well, what’d you do in Rome?’ ‘Played dominoes’. Jimmy Butler Read Quote

The main thing is confidence. I’m gaining more and more confidence to do whatever I want to do on the basketball court, whether it is shooting threes or sprinting to the rim and finishing or ball handling. I’m confident enough because I have worked on it that I am going to do the exact same things in the game. Jimmy Butler Read Quote
Im from Tomball: Tomball, Texas. Its a small town on the northwest side of Houston. I dont think it’s as country as people make it seem. It’s actually growing. But don’t go there without me, man, because they’ll take your shoes and all of that. Jimmy Butler Read Quote
