Jimmy Butler

Every time my name is called, I get so many cheers, standing ovations, and a lot of hands are being clapped.

I think we're all pros. If we go out there and just play basketball the right way, everything is gonna work itself out.

People don't work as hard as I do. They don't expect the same things out of the game that I do.

No matter what, all I want to do is win. I don't care what anybody says, any media outlet, anybody says as a person; the one thing they can't say is that I don't want to win.

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.

Defense is all about if you want to play or not, if you really take matchups personal. A lot of guys don't. Once again, that's the league that we're in. That's not the league that used to be.
