Jimmy Butler isn’t a happy man, not after the Miami Heat have lost four games in a row. And he let his teammates know about his mounting frustrations.
Per The Heat’s reporter, Will Manso, the forward was vocal in expressing his displeasure after the side lost 108-103 to the Charlotte Hornets.
“I’m tired of losing… we gotta figure this out very quickly,” Butler said postgame.

The loss to the Hornets puts Miami seventh in the East with a 32-29 record. With 21 games left in the regular season, the side will look to arrest their losing streak and climb the rungs.
Butler has been having a decent season himself averaging 21.9 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 5.0 assists, however, it hasn’t been enough to help the Heat close out games. Even their latest addition in Kevin Love didn’t help their cause.
Jimmy Butler Boldly Declares He Would Win A Championship Alongside Bam Adebayo And Tyler Herro
Earlier this month, the forward made a bold claim that he would win an NBA title alongside his teammates Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro.
During a recent interview with UPROXX, the 33-year-old shed light on his future with the team and the outspoken personality that he is, Butler claimed that he would win the championship with the two best names on the roster.
“They’re constantly proving that they belong in this league,” Butler opined. “Not only that, they’ve gotten better every single year, and they’re gonna continue to get better every single year. And before you know it, we’re all going to end up winning a championship together because I don’t plan on going anywhere.”
The Heat have some work to do if Butler intends to keep his stance. They aren’t the clinical unit they were last season, and time is running out. The East is a tough place to be at the moment with the likes of the Boston Celtics, the Milwaukee Bucks, and the Philadelphia 76ers all battling for the top seed.
Miami haven’t won a title since LeBron James’ departure, and while Butler has enough artillery to win, they will have to figure things out stat.
