And you were like, this is all I need.

I love this.

Is that actually true?

Did you meet Riley?

Did you get to talk to Riley at that during the process?

Speaking of Jimmy Butler, I'm told he was very fond of you.

And this is a story I heard.

I wonder if it's true.

And it speaks well to you as a teammate and just like a human.

So obviously things go sideways last year between the Heat and Jimmy for reasons that have nothing to do with you.

He gives this now famous or infamous press conference where he says he's lost his joy for basketball.

And I talked to someone who was in the car with him, like maybe even on the way back from that press conference.

And everyone, the way I was told to be was like people with the heat sort of didn't know, you

know, it's like, give him some time, give him some space.

We're not sure what exactly is going on here.

And Jimmy's phone rings.

And the one guy who called him that night from the heat was you.

And what I heard was the message from Jaime was like, Hey man, we can fix this.

Like, come back to us.

We got a good thing going here.
