As I’ve talked about before, there’s nothing quite like Media Day in the NBA. It’s the perfect opportunity for everyone to feel like this is the year<\/em> for their favorite team, the players\/GMs spend the day pandering to fans, and optimism is at its highest. I’ll never get on any fanbase for maybe getting a little too drunk on Media Day hype, because that’s the whole point. At this moment in time, anything is possible. With a few weeks to go before we see what everyone actually looks like on the court, this moment in time is about daydreaming about what “could be”.<\/p>\n

These last few years Media Day has also meant something else. It had become a bit of a tradition that when it came to Jimmy Butler, Media Day represented a day to troll. We all remember his hair from last year when he unleashed Emo Jimmy and then the long hair from the year before<\/p>\n

a move that depending on who your favorite team is came off a certain way. Heat fans of course loved it, other fanbases looked at them as the latest corny Jimmy Butler move to perhaps help take away from what was going on in terms of the actual basketball.<\/p>\n

I’m pretty sure we were all expecting another troll move from Butler this year given what he’s done these last few, so it was a bit of a surprise to see that there was no trolling to be found. No jokes, no bullshit, all business<\/p>\n
