After Savage Timeout Celebration, Heat Superstar Jimmy Butler Trolls Celtics with ‘Brutally Honest’ Series Prediction: “Five”

Jimmy Butler and the Miami Heat have been on an absolute rampage during these Playoffs. Their latest victims, the Boston Celtics, are now trailing 3-0 and find themselves on the verge of being knocked out. All of it could be down to Celtics’ Al Horford. He taunted the Heat after he drilled a 3 and made a gesture about taking a time out to the bench during game 1. Jimmy Butler responded pretty neatly. And now he has summed up the series in spectacular fashion.

In game 3, Jimmy Butler pulled off a similar move late in the game after drilling a 3. He moonwalked backward before calling a timeout for the Celtics. The revenge celebration was followed by an honest Instagram prediction, where he claimed the Heat would win the series in 5 games.

Jimmy Butler continues brutal trolling of the Boston Celtics on Instagram

Jimmy Butler’s performances this postseason will be remembered for ages. This is notwithstanding the fact whether the Heat is able to actually go on and win the NBA title. Jimmy has been superb.

The Celtics appeared so focused to limit Butler’s scoring that they failed to contain the Heat’s other scoring threats. Butler converted just 5 of his 13 attempts on the night, converting just one 3-pointer before he felt provoked.

After a revenge celebration, Butler followed it up with some top-quality trolling on Instagram. Two days earlier, he had posted a series of pictures from game 2 with the caption, “Six.”

This was followed by a game 3 post, earlier today. Butler posted a picture of the timeout celebration with the caption, “Five.” Of course, his team might not even need a game 5, considering the way things have gone thus far.

The Miami Heat’s team chemistry is the second biggest reason why the Heat have been able to dominate the Celtics thus far. Game 3 eventually resulted in a statement win that saw the Heat absolutely destroy the Celtics during the 3^rd quarter.

The quarter ended 32-17 in the Heat’s favor, opening up a 22-point lead that proved far too huge for the Celtics to come back from. While Butler has been a maverick game after game, he was not at his best in game 3.

Instead, the likes of Duncan Robinson and Gabe Vincent brought home the highest points for the Heat. Robinson finished with 22 points off the bench while Vincent had 29 points and 3 assists. The Heat are now in a very comfortable position, with not a single NBA team having come back to win after being 3-0 down in a Playoff series.
