NBA on TNT Host Taylor Rooks Shares Jimmy Butler’s ‘Aggressive Note’ After Being Embarrassed at Spades
Jimmy Butler is just two wins away from reaching the NBA Finals for the second time in his career. And he would do so with a remarkably weak team. Being only the 8th seed the Miami Heat were not expected to be competing anywhere where they are. Jimmy likes to win. And he hates to lose. So much so that once, he sent NBA on TNT host Taylor Rooks a rather aggressive note after losing at spades!
This is not the first time we are hearing a story of Jimmy losing a game and being bitter. That’s the trait that all winners carry. And this is not the first instance of Butler being sour over a game of spades. Dwyane Wade has often beaten Butler in all sorts of games.
But the instance of him losing out to a sports reporter and being rather upset about it is unexpected. In fact, we were rather surprised to learn that he sent in a note laced with profanity!
“F**K YOU!”: Jimmy Butler did not hold back after he lost to Taylor Rooks
As far as Jimmy’s reputation goes, it looks as though he is not someone you try and fight. Or worse, try to talk trash to him. He will take it personally. And his most recent confrontation is drawing out receipts.
Taylor Rooks, NBA on TNT host, brought out her memory of when Jimmy felt rather spiteful. Taylor beat Jimmy in a game of spades. But he is a gentleman. So, in the most gentlemanly way, when he lost in spades, he took a piece of paper and wrote “F**K YOU“.
Once I beat Jimmy Butler baaad in spades on my show, he took the paper and just wrote “F**K YOU”
he won the next one. lmao https://t.co/h6Wi8prmUF

Of course, Jimmy wouldn’t say that directly to a lady. A classy way of being offended, we suppose. This same man now finds himself knocking on the doors of the unthinkable.
Jimmy Butler’s Miami Heat is 2 wins away from the NBA Finals!
Indulge us in this one, an 8th-seeded team is on the verge of reaching the NBA Finals and they are without a star who gives them 20 points per game. Doesn’t that sound rather unbelievable? And yet, it is unfolding right in front of our eyes.
Jimmy, thanks to his sheer willpower is on the verge of greatness. One thing that is evident during these playoffs is that Jimmy does not like losing. Emphasis on the “does not”.
Reminds us a little of Michael Jordan and given the similarities in attitude, he is certainly drawing from his spirit. And as evidenced by his loss to Taylor, it looks as though, he is also very resentful when it comes to losing a game.
