So perfect.

Competitiveness is overrated as just a value to have, right? Because it ruins a lot of things. It ruins relationships. It ruins a lot. And when you talk about somebody like Steph Curry, for example, who's kind of in the center of their universe, what do people say about him? I mean, what do people say about Steph all the time? First thing they say. He's a nice guy. Great guy.

Jimmy Butler said in a story by Anthony Slater in The Athletic, he's real real, right? He just treats everybody really nice. You know that's not like a skill, right? You know that's something that you can just do to people, right? And so when you watch the end of that game, or beginning of that game, where they don't shake hands, I mean, nobody, like Bam walks past him as if he was a stranger.

And then after the game, they have, you know, Not only does Jimmy just kind of slink off and go back to the back without talking to any Heat players, what does every single Warrior do that played with Andrew Wiggins, including Steph Curry, who had already gone back to the locker room, came back out to talk to Andrew Wiggins? Why? Nice guy. People love him.

Like, how is that not so telling about as much as we enjoyed this Jimmy Butler experience for five-plus years, it was always going to be that because that's who he is. And I'm sorry for the Warriors, but at some point he's going to be that there, too. Wow, are you calling the shot now? Well, I mean, you know what? I take that back.

But that normally happens. Like, the issues between the player and management, it's usually, hey, I'm dunking and I'm yelling at the GM on the sideline. This was just icy. This was worse than Kobe Shaq because it was nobody on that team that Jimmy wanted to talk to. Nobody on the Miami team.

What is he going to do, punch an 80-year-old? Are you kidding me? What is that?

No, you wouldn't. I would absolutely love to see them fight.
